Sal Wise, Philly eBay Scammer Strikes Back!

Warlock7 followed up last week's bizarre story of eBay Fraud by noting "The news in Phlly ran with the story and put Sal's picture online with video. Now Sal has decided to direct all blame on his old business partner. He's put up his own site now trying to divert responsibilty away from himself and uses his kids pictures to try and garner support." It's hysterical to read the original log about how everything was his father's fault, but now get to learn about a more powerful evil named 'Vince'. It's like a soap opera that won't let me blink until the commercial.

I'm laughing double hard now

After reading that piece of crap web page I feel like offering Sam a copy of my hot selling "Spellchecker Secrets". For $12.99, you get an easy 1-2-3 how to on unlocking the hidden power of proper English through most modern software like Outlook, Word and Dictionary.com.

But I'm also rolling in laughter at the idiots that got suckered by this dumbass. I recently bought a plasma for 4k off of ebay and everyone told me "ohhh... bad idea." Well.. I never had any doubts because I pay with Money Orders (never had a CC in my life) and there'd be no way this Sal guy would even past my first glance. Hell... with any item over 500.00 I call the seller and speak mano-e-mano before I make any decision, and each seller for an item over 500.00 should have at least 1,000 transactions and a high 90's percentile positive feedback score.

So who's the bigger dipshit? Sal, because yeah... the dudes going down for being a dipshit who couldn't even bother to figure out a proper scam. He's putting the pics of his kids online to gain the "sympathy vote" but that's because he's scared as shit of going to a "Federal Pound Me In the Ass Prison". But the buyers are just a notch below that in dipshit level in my book, I have a feeling that the next time I hear about Justin Spence et al will be how they are fighting back against the evil 419 scammer who took their life savings in an "elaborate online fraud that you should know about".

"What does paying via a money order have to do with anything? -- If you paid via credit card and it never showed up, you'd at least be able to do a charge back. With a money order, you're out of luck."

Sort of answered your own question there, didn't you?
yeah, maybe that's why I use half a braincell and follow up with the seller before I commit to a transaction, because when I send a money order for $4,200, I want to make sure I'm not shit out of luck, or maybe you couldn't wrap your pointy little head around that deep concept?

Ohh and my post got modded down as flamebait because I have 0 sympathy for the dumbass who got suckered by some ignorant fuckwad on eBay... boohoo. Next time I'll remember to join in the mindless slashdot chorus and weep for the dumbasses that screw themselves and heed the idiots that answer their own questions. And I'll be sure to go cry for all those dumbshits that suckered by 419 scammers while I'm at it.
