Eh, usually when an account gets hacked, doesnt the hacker change the password so the owner can't get access to it?
This happened to my EQ1 account back in 2002... I just couldn't log in one day, took hours talking to customer service then when I restored access, all my *ish was gone.

) hacker would have to think that there is a good chance this "guy" () whose account he "hacked" () may login to this forum and would see a bunch of PM's and such. 
Just doesn't add up. Need MOAR entertainment!

-OP wanted Wheels from Seller, sends $2300, but does not receive wheels or tracking info, only receives excuses (weather, paypal addy)... keeps contact with seller via PM, E-mail and Cell Phone, so creates thread to warn others of potential scam.
-Seller states wasn't him and that his my350z and personal accts were hacked into, so he states someone was impersonating him...
-Seller decides to go on the offensive and slams that he's the victim and that he's losing $9k of his own money, not OP.
-Mods and other supporting members bring questionable posts to thread via My350z and other car forum (Lotus) which question the validity of seller, such as a thread in the Lotus forum stating he's broke and can't afford his car payments any longer, so he needs help:
http://www.lotustalk.com/forums/f68/...ed-asap-64576/
Other posts found state seller has already paid off Lotus and is in the market of purchasing an M3:
https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-tire...-19x9-5-a.html
And other members question his casual postings up until 1/7/2009 eventhough it was hacked into prior to this date:
https://my350z.com/forum/media-share...urdered-z.html
-Other victims of seller step forward stating they were scammed by the same seller but of different items for sale.
-People request seller to post police report # to validate his victimization and clear his name, but no response or e-mails. OP received e-mail from seller that he will refund his money but OP says nothing has noted or presented to Paypal in terms of refund.
Cliffs work?

I quit reading after page 10, some people contacted me about blackpearlZ sales also (i.e. triple disc clutch) b/c they saw I had purchased it. I told him to hold off for a little bit considering I knew he had sold the Z and picked up a Lotus.
When I dealt with im personally, the transaction went very smooth and I had no issued whatsoever. I'm pretty sure his whole partout went smooth until all this recently started happening.
Going to go out on a limb here and say he is innocent, if this has been posted between page 10-present sorry just wanted to put in my .02
Good luck bro PM me if you need anything

Update:
I just came back from Bank of America, and reported the fraud, they said they will send over a letter for me to fill out some informations and details, then they will take care the payments as much as they can.

I just filled out that complaint form on the site you provided OP. I escalated the paypal payments to a complaint, and then i spoke to my bank. The bank said that paypal is pretty good about giving buyers their money back, so that is definately reassuring (a little), i would also encourage you to speak to your credit card company if not already done so, they might offer some sort of insight for you. I'm still uneasy about this whole situation and dont usually post alot, but damn this is f****** ridiculous. Just ticked with this situation and so many of the other guys have helped me with questions ive had, and it is definately hard to be able to judge people, but most everyone ive spoken to is cool, hard to believe still with over 2000 posts someone like him could do this.

Jesus, I just read through all 23 pages (I'm in class, and grad school in accounting is borrring).
Epic fail. I've been on Zilvia and NICO for a long time, but have never witnessed this much fail even on the latter.
To the OP and everyone else who got ****ed... I hope you guys all get your money back and an opportunity to shove that crickett stick up his gaping butthole (although judging from his pics, it might be a little like throwing a hot dog down a hallway).
ZOMG. I just LOL'ed in class after reading that and seeing the pics. Accounting is not funny, therefore everyone in my class probably thinks I'm crazy.
