BUYER'S BEWARE THIS SELLER - WCRUISERJUNKIE (1 Viewer)

[Woodman]

I have called and texted Chris the scumbag weekly. He never answers and never responds. So as far as I'm concerned he hasn't surfaced and hasn't paid me back.

Bring on the handcuffs and nightstick!


For you Bernie for bird dogging this effort

For you Detective for locking him up!

I'm an hour south of Chattanooga and available to serve as a witness, public humiliater, or whatever is needed. AND, I'm currently clean shaven and own a suit!!

He tried to get me for 175.00 for pos distributor that was cracked. After four weeks of being a nice guy, I sent him an email stating "I'll be coming to get my money" he sent my money via Walmart ASAP.

I hope you guys get your money back. This is a great place to weed out the scumbags!

 

[18Doc]

I just got off the phone with the detective. He needed specifics on the parts I was supposed to get from Chris. Well, nothing too specific, just what the parts were. He needs to get the same info from a few more people and then the case is going before a grand jury and hopefully there will be an indictment.

 

[Beachcomber Bernie]

Thanks for the news Doc!

To help expedite this, everyone with a claim should gather their facts. Ive still got the original email from Chris that completely spells out what he promised and his price for each item.

I'll share my conversation here as well.

 

[18Doc]

I was halfway tempted to send a final email to Chris and let him know that his comeuppance was......um.....coming, but what would be the point? Even if he sent me the parts and refunded my money, its too late to stop the train. He bought the ticket, looks like he gets to see the whole show. My hope now is that everyone that got ripped off, gets satisfaction and closure.

 

[Beachcomber Bernie]

Pretty sure we all sent that 'final' notice, hoping he'd do right. He's made his own bed and now we need closure to recoup and stop him from victimizing others.

 

[Woodman]

I chatted with the good Detective yesterday, provided dates/amounts/part type. That crook, Chris Wilson, still logs into Mud with frequency.......perhaps to check on this thread? Search for victims? Don't know but his ID shows site activity with frequency.

I've sent so many "final" notices I'm losing credibility with myself.

Here's hoping the good guys prevail under the law

 

[18Doc]

Anybody heard anything new about this?

 

[Beachcomber Bernie]

I've tried several times to contact the detective in the past few weeks. He's just hard to reach and I'm always 4 hrs behind. Anybody else got an update from the law?

 

[Beachcomber Bernie]

UPDATE!
I just spoke with our detective and he asked me to post the following.

Ten charges of theft have been filed with the DA and warrants for his arrest were issued. Chris was formally served and was required to turn himself in to local authorities last Thursday. True to form, Chris failed to deliver one last time and has fled the area.

Chris is now on the run so he probably doesn't have bail money, let alone money to reimburse anyone. Law enforcement wants to catch him but they are now asking for our help. IF ANYBODY HEARS FROM OR KNOWS WHERE CHRIS IS, call Lookout Mtn headquarters immediately! Tell the dispatcher what you know and they will roll.

Gang,

The good detective just called me at home to say that Chris Wilson has turned himself in. Thanks to everyone who stepped up to get us this far. I will follow up with court proceedings as I learn them.

 

[18Doc]

Thanks again Bernie for starting this thread and taking point on the effort to get justice for everyone that got scammed by thus guy. Thanks also for keeping us all informed. I'm close to Chattanooga, so if the time should come, I'll be more than willing to be a witness, and/or represent anyone who's too far to be present.

 

[18Doc]

Whoops, looms like the thread was started by Davaa, but Bernie has really taken the lead so thanks again.

 

[Woodman]

I'm also an hour away from Chattanooga and like 18Doc willing to testify, or whatever.

If I were more computer savvy I'd upload the booking photo........best I can do is provide the link.

Thanks Bernie for spearheading this from the left coast.

While I consider it a longshot to be reimbursed it does feel pretty good knowing he didn't get away with it.

[Muddy Bean]

This is incredible. Amazing to see MUD members collectively working to right so many wrongs. Well done sirs. You just restored a bit of my faith in humanity and our justice system. With all of those also frauded by Shane, hopefully the same can be done with him.

 

[jdduncan]

Do I need to be there on 5/22? I work a couple blocks away. I just want to make sure he does not get away with anything.

 

[Beachcomber Bernie]

Not yet Dunc, as this is just the arraignment where he will...
- Plead guilty or not
- Be assigned a public defender, if needed
- Ask for a reduction in bail
- Schedule the next court date or date for sentencing

However, I think we all would agree it would be epic to have one of us attend (especially you) and give us an eye-witness report.
