SCAM - Ribfast Fabrications, Indianapolis, Indiana

[mxtras]

WARNING!

Here is a 'potential' scammer. Brian L. Allen of Ribfast Fabrications was operating off E-bay as well as other sites.

Last December (2006), he put the scam to someone trying to buy a Sherline mill, so I saw it fit to post a warning here on the Zone.

John Painter from Maryland bought the mill from Ribfast Fabrications and sent payment to Brian L. Allen of Ribfast Fabrications. The funds went into Mr. Allen's account but the mill was never sent.

I then ran across a recent thread on a motocross board and it captured my attention.

As it turns out, this same scammer has put it to a motocrosser for an expensive piece of safety equipment (Leatt neck brace) using many of the same diversions he used in the mill scam - check out the info in this thread:

I can not say for certain that he is operating a scam, but his actions make it indistinguishable. If it looks like crap and smells like crap, it's likely crap. Watch your step!
