 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'
I thought this thread was bumped back up because someone saw him outside TAG looking homeless and smoking herb waiting for the show tomorrow. Nag in hand.

JMRampage wrote: Hey SBer's
I am selling original Sofubi toys, customs and collabs (with Splurrt, Ilaneba, Kikake and many others!), and I wanted to inform all of you of a scammer in our midst.
I recently sold a bunch of stuff (all Splurrt figures that I had painted - all on a collaborative basis with Splurrt himself (Joe Merrril) to a person who claimed to be named 'Elizabeth Record' from NewYork (signing emails as 'Lizzy'). This person was found out to be a former SB member named 'Sam' (I do not know his screen name) who was using his girlfriends name, email and Paypal in order to buy things - and then flip them. When I found this out, I was very angry to know that I had sold so many items to a flipper...
I was even MORE p#%•~d off when I received an email today telling me that Paypal was investigating a potentially fraudulent claim for a REFUND (cancelled payment) for the items that this 'Lizzy' had ordered! I have EMS records PROVING that the package was delivered -- as well as an email from Lizzy/Sam stating that the items were delivered. I have provided this information to Paypal. Next up isthe NYPD.
If any of you have any dealings with 'Elizabeth Record' or this 'Sam,' please be careful. These people are scammers.
I will be seeking retribution - targeting BOTH Sam and Elizabeth. They are obviously working together to rip people off, and they should both be punished for their horrible lack of ethics, and disregard for the art and effort that so many of us invest in this hobby.
Please, all of us, be careful. There are terrible scammers passing themselves off as 'members of our community.' fyi, might want to check the buyers addresses and add another one to the shit list. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Splurrt-Mecha-C ... 20cfdee72c

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'
Jeez, pic stolen right from Jon's site. Not cool. Wonder what you are actually getting, at least have a photo of the item available.

Probably because Jon numbered them individually...

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'
What would it take to have him banned from eBay?

I was just referring to the fact that the seller doesn't even mention this fact in the description, and not having a picture, you really don't know for certain that there is any physical toy involved. Which I am sure there is; it is obviously just a quick money grab with a 50$ shipping charge.

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'
Yeah, you're talking about a guy who sends his little sister and her school chums to mule for a Mishka Nag lotto, and sends his little grother to try and greab him a PK piece at NYCC. What can you do. He's got plenty of people around him who share his lack of ethics and are more than happy wasting their time to help him out.
The longer I do this, the closed list sales system keeps looking better and better.

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'
I'm just disappointed that after all his schemes and cons and all the evidence that's been collected he's still a free boy. I really thought Frank's involvement was going to make a difference.

I really thought Frank's involvement was going to make a difference. As well as the large amount of Professionals, Establishments, Paypal Claims, and Bank Account Charge-backs... Perhaps if enough high number sellers who bring eBay a LOT of business & have been scorned by him could come together & approach eBay about it, that he could at least be blocked there. It would at least put a big gape in his wallet... Ya know, problem is that his 1st response would be to create a profile under a relative's persona! Grrr He's also not the 1st and his ability to continue w/o any legal consequences is Most Certainly encouraging other scumbags. His may-as-well-be slogan : "HEY! Look what I can do! And I'm F*ing Rewarded For It! How Many of YOU Chumps Have a Collection Like THIS! HA! FOOLS!" We can only hope that the bottom of his "only smirky douchebags allowed" secret treefort hideout eventually drops out from the weight of his impending karmic doom, and when he hits the ground, he Falls HARD, with the intensity of a trillion splintering assholes.

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'
How awesome would It be to get clutter to not let him buy shit from the kaiju show coming up.

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'

Thaaaat might not be too hard to do. There are Many people here w' Clutter connections.
Good idea, Ironpaw.

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'
He got banned from many NYCC booths and he still somehow ended up getting shit to flip. Banning him from clutter may be a good idea but who know's how well it'll work.

 Re: Don't trust 'Sam' or 'Elizabeth Record'
Until this guy finally ends up facing some sort of legal consequences (hopefully), "banning" him from venues apparently only equals doing him a favor - he just sends his little sister and doesn't even have to leave mommie's flat.

Bastard ass flipper. alot of folks know who his grother is at this point, so he'll probably be denied by most makers anymore. not sure who his sister is though, although I'm sure some NY folks could point her out.
