Watch who you give your money too!!!!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------this is a thread posted by wade on comp D.







"Most of you know that I have been building a CR prostreeter for the last few months.



well alot has happened in the last few days and i would like to elaborate a bit on the chassis guy that (was) doing the work.



Doug Daniels



DG metal fab

hollywood MD



this guy is a crook and after the police report came thru he apparantly had done this in a few different states.



IL

ohio

virgina

florida

and now maryland



he was paid a portion of what the total cost would have been and all parts were provided for the install/ work.





i was refered to this guy after i found that no one in the area wanted to mess with a diesel drag truck, and after talking with him and meeting him i desided to go thru with it. he had all the proper bussines lincences and such and even was once employed by some of the famous chassis builders in this country---BEVIS, Jerry bickel, Marvin wright. ect



He was provided with over 5k worth of payments and parts, and we talked on a regular basis. i last talked with him on friday.

i got a phone call on monday from another customer of his, that this duch bag had skipped town, and took all he could out of the shop with him.



so after getting there and looking at all the damage, all i had left was a fuel cell, rear dragslicks and wheels and my rear end.



all of the seats and harnesses were gone, front wheels and tires gone, countless electronics and nitrous controllers, ring and pinion, brake booster. ect. ect



and the worst part my friggin money, 5k worth. it put me in a bad spot, considering christmas is right around the corner.



then the cop says he cant help that its a civil issue, and all i can do is put a judgment on his bussiness.



so you mean to tell me that no felony or crime was commited on his part?

this is bull****!!!





Look guys stand clear of this guy, where ever he may be. please choose who you give money to more wisely than i did.







this project will now be taking longer than i expected, any help or encouragment would be appriciated.



thanks



Wade

NGM Diesel"

I think if you have anything in writing/paper from this guy (cancelled check, etc. ) it is a crime. Go the to DA and ask them whether or not a crime has been committed. Especially if the police can document fraud in multiple states. Heck go to the FBI, there are many statues that cover fraud across state lines.



Spend $30 dollars or so for a back ground check and post his picture here and anywhere there is a way to do it.



We can propogate that picture and discription through many different forums and Internet social networking sites. He must have ****** a number of people off by now and that will haunt him in the long run.



Of course a good *** kicking would be the best thing to start with.



Sorry I have been screwed before also and will always have my eye out for that mother dog.

You may have been kissed off by that officer. Might have been more than he or she wanted to write. Sounds like at least an embezzlement since the guy stole parts that you had intrusted to him. Contact the local D. A. or go to your local police station and ask to see the Watch Commander regarding the issue.

Sorry Robert.

I've had simular experiences dealing with automotive shops and mechanics in the past fifty years or so. It leaves a hollow spot in my stomach, almost like being physically violated.

IMO people like this have no conscience or humility, and the only thing they really understand is a good body beating. I've never had the opportunity to inflict one because the slippery slimeballs always escape.

I can only wish you luck in your recovery.
