Default Re: Scammer Alert

Hello all... I am not part of your race community (although I did participate in autocross, IMSA, NCCC, and other events a few decades ago). I even took a few trips down the 1/4 mile track (back we had a 1/4 mile length). My search for a scammer has lead me here to your thread.

These are the names that this person uses associated with the phone number 662-276-1307, which is provided by Google (VOiP) via Bandwidth.com.

John Tyler
Wyatt Roland
Carolyne Emily
Ray Dawson
Phill Daniel

... probably many others as well.

This individual (or group I think based on the sheer number of different types of websites being stalked) is obviously committing federal crimes (wire fraud and mail fraud at the very least).

Unfortunately for this person, he (or they) have reached a group of individuals who have a lot of free time on their hands and world of computer knowledge, now with a mission to find this person.

Do not send payments to anyone you don't physically know using a means that can not offer protection, such as Zelle, Apple Pay, Vinemo, etc. If you use PayPal, do NOT use the "friends and family" option - pay the extra 3.5% for the security of having the ability to get your money back. Do NOT send cash - that was actually suggested in my case... LOL!

I do not believe that this group is actually in the U.S. or they are just poorly educated. Their English skills are lacking, and they make many mistakes, like sending you text and pictures obtained from the Internet (and can be easily found with a simple Google search).

Sorry to hear that someone was taken by this scammer. Ironically, the item that I was looking for (WTB ad, like others here) was something rare enough that the pictures of that item that were sent to me as being the one for sale were actually taken by someone I know in the industry, and they still have the item and it was not for sale! Others probably won't be so lucky.

I have reached out to Google, and I will reach out to the FBI when I have collected more info. I would really like to get @MarkRober and his buddies involved as it seems Mark likes tracking down these scumbags!
