Known Scammers List

[Cairo94507]

Kahiko Customs in Charles City, VA. Consumers beware if you come across Scotty B. I was ripped off for work promised and never done. What was done was not even close to even fair quality work. I had to pay to have it all re-done. His work almost destroyed my chassis. I know of and personally spoke with 2 other Porsche owners who had very similar experiences with him. I was fortunately able to recoup about 1/6 of my loss from him- and was glad he at least did that.

I believe Kurt has gone to prison for fraud.

Please BEWARE and DO NOT SUPPORT.

Ha! Dr. 911 recently had a pair of used but new Recaro Pole Positions for sale (manf. date was 2013) and let me know in PM that they were $2K...when I replied that they were just $150 more per seat but the FIA cert. expired 2 years ago (and no thank you), he immediately replied they had been sold. Maybe they were never there? Magic...

Carlos Nin pulled the same thing on a Kugelfischer MFI pump... and probably other things "offered".
I suggest it's one more way to recognize a scammer. potential buyers start asking too many questions ... want "too many" details and all of a sudden the article is "sold".
magic ?
yeah.
sure.

Carlos Nin Morales is still active on this forum under the name FEVER

Hey friends - I wanted to circle back and provide a follow-up on this thread.

I received a full refund from Paypal this morning and they also additionally reimbursed me $30 to ship the fake part back to con-man Kurt in Vancouver.

Be careful out there and really do your homework before spending your hard earned dollars.

Watch for scammers again
One guy called me from Utah with area (541) numbers.
They sounded like they had something in their mouth when they kept on begging for my shipping address.
They had a 964 crankcase with the engine belly pan(&#129488
For sale with some pony vin number which didn’t even match a Porsche.

Watch out everyone.

Here is his number if anyone wants to have some fun.
+1 (541) 368-2680
