tattooxr6 Member 20 Member For: 13y 11m 6d Posted 27/07/11 11:25 AM Share Posted 27/07/11 11:25 AM A while back there was a site sponsor, www.partsbox.com.au and I beleive they went by the name Fortis Wheels, the username was fordpower1 , he was offering the Simmons style 20inch rims for around 1k a set...anyway, I ended up purchasing a set from him via his website, bank transfer... ive never received the wheels, no reply to emails and his # on the site is no longer connected..did anyone end up purchasing a set of wheels from him and receive them? can an admin tell me why he is no longer a site sponsor , were they complaints about him??? anyway... just abit annoyed at the moment as looks like ive lost 1k and no rims! and it was him being a site sponsor that made me think he was fine to deal with, Ive done some searching online and it seems he has been known as a scammer before going off his email provided... jerrysafar@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's f*cked...I'd assume if he was a sponsor, the admin would have to have his details...They sell those fortis wheels on eBay...I'd want blood. That's f*cked...

I found one post with such an accusation, but a followup post indicated that the goods were received. If I noticed a number of posts stating the same thing then I would be concerned.I did a quick lookup.I assume you have tried the following.http://www.partsbox.com.au/wheels.php We can be contacted by the following methods:02 8005 43270450 260 898jerrysafar@gmail.comI don’t know if the following reference is to the same person, but you could try the following.http://www.bizearch.com/company/Js_Parts_336302.htmCompany Name Js PartsContact Person Mr Jerry SafarCompany Address 35 Wildman Ave, Liverpool, Nsw, AustraliaPostal Code 2170Telephone Number 61 02 98211843Mobile Number 61406185185Fax Number 61 02 98211843Website Js Parts, http://www.bizearch.com/company/Js_Parts_336302.htmhttp://www.alibaba.com/member/rb26dett.htmlEvery now and then we have disputes related to traded goods, either between members, or members and advertisers. If there is an issue with a current advertiser, we may get involved to query what is happening, in the interest of members, but this site has no responsibility for the actions of external enterprises.I hope you can resolve this with more persistence.Brian.

tattooxr6 Member 20 Member For: 13y 11m 6d Posted 27/07/11 10:23 PM Author Share Posted 27/07/11 10:23 PM Im not blaming this site for anything dude, Im just saying I found him on here when he was a sponsor, but he seemed to dissapear pretty quickly , so was wondering if there was a reason for that..ive tried to contact him many times to no response, numbers with no response, no more replies to any emails after the money cleared..when I was getting replies within a few hours when organising it all..obviously anyone else in my position would be abit concerned as 1k is abit of money to flush down the toilet, so obviously if ive been burnt..then hopefully others can think twice before potentially dealing with him on future purchases.. when I did an abn search on the number he supplied on the website, upon contacting the businesses they have never even heard of this jerry person...
