It has come to the attention of the staff that the user evoevo, aka David Rydl, has been scamming members here. The most recent was an AMS FMIC that he sold. Instead of sending said intercooler, he actually sent the stock one. We have proof beyond a reasonable doubt (aka original shipping box with weight on it... AMS FMIC weighs considerably more than the OEM one) and have determined that he should be avoided when it comes to buying, selling, and trading.

He also does have a history of becoming an unproductive member of an online community in this manner before, as can be seen here:

Thanks for the heads up.

What means did you pay him with? A lot of CC companies now have fraud protection for internet purchases.

through paypal linked to my bank account. i thought all purchases where protected from fraud when paying through paypal, i was wrong. this is becomming a pain in the ass getting my money back because he actully sent me something. david rydl has done his home work and knows this. looks like i'm sol.

if anyone knows the ins and outs of this type of matter, and or can help me as to how to recover my money or prosecute david rydl please pm me.

If you go through the post from the other forums members have stated they no where he lives....maybe you can contact one of them. The posts are pretty old so not sure if those are still active members or not. The one guy says he lives down the street from him. Top link

Yeah I learned this lesson with PayPal a few years ago. If you notice when paying with them they always default to your bank account and not your credit card. Its because when they use your bank they are in control of any fraud issues. When you use your CC they are at the mercy of their rules. I always pay with my Visa for this reason since they give the ability to charge back.

Have you called and talked to a PayPal rep?

wow shit like that really pisses me off......

yea, i always click to switch payment opition, but for some reason it would not let me use my credit card on this purchase. paypal is a pain in the ass. my account is verified, email confirmed and alll that. i called but spoke to some bitch that could only speak terrorist. i'm calling back monday to speak to someone that speaks american!

nice, just hit 666 post in this thread. hopefully that's a good thing?

DAVID RYDL can go to hell. twice. and burn!

Somebody on here has to live near the guy. I've driven from Maryland to Tampa Florida to knock on a guys door....got my money back too. I have no mercy for scammers! And this guy has been doing it for years now. Are there any other forums this guy is active on?

Band that *******! Then take him to court

How sad to just steal from people like that.

what goes around comes around. he will get his in good time.

Its too bad. I actually got a PM back from him after asking him about this whole issue. I thought that he was going to work it out and come clean but I guess I was wrong. He never responded after that 1st PM. Sorry that you lost your money man. What goes around comes around

We popped this guy on Evom too last week.
Multiple screen names, positive repping himself... Major bad news.

What are his other screen names he uses?

oh its this prick. he is selling his car too i believe. i called him out on evom NUMEROUS times about his AWC switch he was supposed to have sent out to australia. i ended up trading with the guy from australia and was no hassle. he kept telling me he shipped it out. i agree all scammers must die.

how can he keep getting away with this. what kind of car is he selling?

Ban ip?

i know its a huge country but i kinda find it hard to believe that nobody on this board knows this kid. if somebody does pls help and dont turn a blind eye on things like this.

This sheet pisses me right off...

Ban ip?

This really doesn't work. I use my iphone to connect and all I have to do is switch towers and I have a new IP.

I believe in karma and what goes around comes back around on you.

i think exoxforums.com should make a rule that for sale post require an ebay link to buy once a price is agreed upon so if you are scammed you can get your money back.

and if i am not mistaken, this was the AMS fmic that he "agreed" to sell to one guy but ended up selling to another just because the said guy "paid" first. i bet you if the first guy didnt throw fits all over how they had agreed in principle this jackass would have tried to sell it to both of them.

You mean a link to a buy it now or something? Can't you still be scammed in the same manner that you did?

yes you could still be scammed the same way, but if it is on ebay and you pay through paypal you can get your money back. even though i paid through paypal i can't get my money back from paypal. if it was on ebay i would be fine. would most likely slow scamming down a lot to.

man this kind of shit really is the lowest of the low. Were one big evo family... this is like the equivalent of stealing from someone close like your uncle

Dude deserves to get diagnosed with testicular cancer

also since david rydl actually sent me something, it is making it harder to get my money back from my bank.

Does it have a return address?

not that i can confirm yet.

not that i can confirm yet.

You should send the address if you haven't already to trust and maybe we can see if it matches up to any ip addresses used on the board.

thanks. trust has it. i posted it in this thread.

lol sorry. Just now saw it.

scammed guys, report it to: http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx

and research on his address and then call and report it to the county sheriff/police office under his address' jurisdiction. Explain what had happened and give his complete name and address and they can give him a visit and he will be in "their wanted/watchlist profile".

I had this problem before so I learned my lesson, I buy local stuff only, I see it, I buy it..cash.

Stuff like this just makes it even harder for the rest of us who do want to conduct honest transactions.

i have reported a claim with internet crimes already. some good advice. thank you. i'm going to be more vigilant to say the least. scammed guys, report it to: http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx

That is why I tend to only buy from the approved vendors

Im one of the local Omaha NE SRT4 guys, I haven’t talked or seen David in a little over a year. Back when I use talk to him often he lived in South Omaha, and he worked as a truck driver for Pepsi in Omaha. He use to be active in the local AutoX events.

He was always a cool straight forward nice guy with all the local people so I really can’t see him scamming people but that’s just how he was with us.
People on our local racing site know him personally so there’s a better chance of finding his home address if a post is made on http://www.nestreetscene.com

He never was one of the popular car people in town but I know a hand full of people on that site are close friends with him. His user name on that site is GraphiteGreyEvo, on http://midwestevos.com his user name is ggevo9

Well that’s all the info I know and like I said before, scamming people doesn’t sound like something he would do but if he did I hope the guy that got scammed gets his money back
Forward this info to the guy who got scammed if you want but keep me out of it because I really don’t think he scammed anyone.

SWEET VICTORY! i just out scammed the scammer. haha this feel so good. let me tell you how i worked the system.

first if you have read this post you will know david rydl sent me a oem fmic instead of an AMS that i payed him for.

when i disputed this thru payapl all paypal make the seller do is provide a correct traking number for the transaction. since he sent me something and made sign for it he had a (1) tracking #.

since he had a valid tracking # paypal washes there hands of the matter, they do not investigate the to see if the item is legit, there done at that point.

hold on...i think to my self? i paid david rydl in the form of two payments one was for $50 (for the factory fmic) and one was $550 for the AMS fmic. :shades:

so i re submitted my dispute and provided that the shipping weight on the package david sent me was to light to be the AMS and it was the oem one he sent me...the only one he sent me so he had only one tracking # haha so i got his oem for $50 and the $550 payment was reversed. he probabaly spent at least $20 shipping me his oem fmic. huge win! FUCK DAVID RYDL :pokeowned:

^^ very very nice :) glad to hear you got your cash back!

lol nice man! Screw thieves they make me sick

Awesome, you should post that intercooler on ebay with like $75 reserve just to get rid of it. Whatever it sells for higher is profit.

You sir are my hero. I'm so glad karma came back around.

Hell Yes....way To Go Indy!!!

Well Indy ill buy the oem evo x fmic if ur interested in selling it lol

Good deal bro!

AWESOME!!!!!!

Now someone should just pop by his place and fukn monkey slap him.

http://njnb.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/monkey-slap.jpg

how much for that intercooler?

Shit like this really grinds my gears!

I got scammed like this via ebay and paypal one time. My saving grace was the fact that i always pay for items via paypal, but pull funds from my credit card. When paypal washed their hands of the matter leaving me $300 in the hole, I called my credit card company and reported the fraud. They credited me immediately and went after the guy!!! First time I was glad to talk to the CC company!

http://alysonman.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/epic-win.jpg

good stuff glad to hear about the good outcome.

think paypal has some kind of policy if the transaction is over 150 or something, they will holding the fund not to release to the seller til the feedback is good.... just call paypal and request for this service when the transaction is over 150... it works for me...

Man thats crazy, glad you got it taken care of. No offence but when some comes on here and says beware of joe blow evo scammer whats to stop them from making a new account and doing it all over again?

I can't believe paypal tried an screw you out of fraud protection.

Dino/Administrator can do an IP ban, but even then there are plenty of work arounds for that as well (Proxy Server, Request new IP from your ISP and on and on and on). The best way is to buy from trusted sources, or pay with your CC or Bank card just in case these things happen (Charge Back). ;)

Lol that is hilarious serves him right :) Funny thing is if he already spent the original money, paypal has a collections agency that will call him all the time wanting their money back

you should find him and kick his teeth in...I know you pain man!

good to know thanks for the info.
