I think your trolling because if some nammer had 40k of my dollars that I didn't even meet, or through a business without doing research on it, I would fly here (since you probably have money since you gave him 40k straight up) and get your money back PHYSICALLY.

I've met Anthony a couple times that's why he and his boyfriend were able to butter me up. Took them a week but they got me. ffffuuuuu

There is no money to get back. I know he blew through it all already. My $40K plus Gilbert's $7K. In a month! Only thing left is to mess up the rest of his life and take his kid away. Now I'm pissed for me and for the other guy!

No offence, but judging by your reaction time, I really doubt that 40k is a lot of money to you.

You might as well ruin his life then

Not much I could have done. It's not a murder or kidnap so LAPD wouldn't go looking for him. Now that he is frauding others it could mean he's setting out to fraud a lot of Americans before leaving the country so they might think again and I have a better idea of where he is staying.

Oh yeah it's been frustrating to hold back and being angry I will probably spill more than I should.

His cousin used to live a few houses down from me and I'd stop by to hang out because he would always be wrenching on his turbo honda in there. Anthony brought his car down to get turbo'd and I hung out with him then. We have kept in touch throughout the years on Myspace and Facebook.

I just don't understand why you'd call him, he'd answer, then you give the phone to his cousin? That doesn't make any sense at all to me... unless I'm missing something here, you really should have manned up and told this guy what you're plans are if you don't get your $$$.

Because they were close, the scammer's dad is my friend's god father. My friend has helped the scammer out a lot over the years finishing projects he got himself into that he couldn't complete. I don't know if it did any good but he said he knows we are good people and that's why he wan't to finish the deal and make it right.

I've told him repeatedly what's going to happen and he appears to be concerned and does not want it to go that far but he obviously does not care or is planning to flee to another country or something I don't know.

This is taking way too long. You really needa make a move

One of those lines he loves to use.

Yep. he just sent me the "real" pictures and VIN again. I told him that was the same VIN of the charcoal auction car and he said oh sh1t he sent the wrong one again.

He asked me to call the police back and tell them everything was going to be ok. lmao

lol this thread still alive.

Mike, I wish you all the best, but please stop posting in this thread until you have a resolution.

threezero 09-15-2010 04:04 PM

lol at OP

Anthony is luring you into his trap, he is sending you pictures, and you are accepting his lies and STILL putting confidence in him. In the end he could just "ship" you out the car and than blame you for losing the car. seems like you are way too much of a pushover for someone that just got scam out of 40k.

Good luck in court, doesn't look like you will win any case you have against him. Even if any charges stick you have already gave him enough time to move around his fund.


You are not getting your money back
