[zfjohnson07]

so is that the number i call to report him?

[95CelicaST]

Yeah, call the number and ask for a detective. Explain to them the situation, and how he has done this multiple times on multiple forums. Give him your information, as well as the names and any other info you can get from others that he has scammed here. That should be enough for them to get a warrant and go arrest him.

I googled him, looks like this guy is a registered sex offender too. Nice.

I also wanted to add that those of you who he has scammed I urge you to call the local Police Department in New Port Richey and tell them. Some guy was scamming over on NASIOC and because of the victims calling a local detective he was arrested and charged with a dozen or so felonies.

A few months ago, I was scammed (along with several other members here) by a member named "STiKindaGuy".
I was taken for an STi steering wheel, other members were taken for wheels, a turbo, and many other items which we all paid for an never received.

I took it upon myself to go after this guy and started doing some research.
I found out which chapter he frequented (This One), posted up a notice on this forum and within a few hours got a reply which pointed me in the right direction for who this guy really was.

Armed with that information, I started sending PM's to all the other members I could find who replied to the for sale threads this scammer (StiKindaGuy) had posted, and I asked those members for some personal information which I then forwarded to a detective in this guys home town.

That detective and I worked together over the next several weeks putting together as much information as we could gather, and today I am happy to report that I received the following email from Detective Sean Lundry up in Oregon:

[B][B]"I wanted to let you know that I have arrested and charged Chance Graham in relation to this case. He was charged with two counts ID Theft, one count of Theft 1, and Computer Crime. All of these are felonies in Oregon. He will most likely be going to prison for a period of time based on his past criminal convictions. He was using Riggs name without his knowledge. If you want to pass this on to the other victims in this case, by all means do so. If you have any questions feel free to call or e-mail. Thanks for your assistance"

BIG UPDATE BIG UPDATE BIG UPDATE 2-21-2010

I just received word from the DA’s office that they are going to charge Graham with ten counts ID Theft and six more counts of Aggravated ID Theft. Just thought you should know that this is getting dealt with. The ID Thefts are C felonies and the Agg ID Thefts are B felonies.



Detective Sean Lundry
The Dalles PD
401 Court St
The Dalles, OR. 97058
(541) 296-2613 work
(541) 298-2747 fax
slundry@ci.the-dalles.or.us



I just thought I would pass along how a little due diligence and, willingness to do some footwork resulted in a scammer being nailed to the cross.
I feel good about this, I hope that guy gets the book thrown at him, because including myself, he scammed Nasioc members out of more than $7,000.00 total.
Hopefully for him......it was worth the year or 2 he will spend watching his back in federal prison!

[zfjohnson07]

well im going to call the police where he lives to get this guy in prison or something. he needs to learn his lesson

[GriffGirl]

More than just that he needs to learn his lesson, but it's kind of your moral and social responsibility to help put a stop to his behavior before he rips off other people.

I googled him, looks like this guy is a registered sex offender too. Nice.

Link?

[Hazmat]

Seriously Zach, I cannot believe how much crap this guy has given you (and MANY others) over a simple transaction that he decides to scam again with. You definitely need to give the local PD a call over there asap to teach this douchebag a lesson.

I googled him, looks like this guy is a registered sex offender too. Nice.

Link?

Lol! x2 on that link

^ Wrong link? That's Oregon...

[samir0189]

so is that the number i call to report him?

Yes, provided that New Port Richey is the city he actually lives in. I know he has given a bunch of different locations for where he lives including Tarpon Springs, FL, Holiday, FL, I think Hudson, FL as well. All of these locations are fairly close to each other with about 5-10 miles in between them, and to be honest I don't know if each area has their own PD or what. If anyone has his real address that would help with which PD to deal with.

Yeah, call the number and ask for a detective. Explain to them the situation, and how he has done this multiple times on multiple forums. Give him your information, as well as the names and any other info you can get from others that he has scammed here. That should be enough for them to get a warrant and go arrest him.

What he said but more.

Collect ALL possible related information you can find, paypal receipts from emails, all forum thread links (even non 6gc if it relates to the same guy), PM's, emails, text messages, etc.

Contact others who have been scammed and get them to forward PM's to you (or make them aware of who to call and give their info forth if it is safer that way with other peoples info... i guess) so you can compile a nice file for them and be ready to email/fax/snail mail etc all these documents to them. I would think you would need some pretty solid evidence for them to take you seriously and to actually pursue this, so gather as much stuff as you possibly can to make a strong case against this *insertwordofchoicehere*.

... Then call.
