BE WARNED!!! TheBlackPearlZ is a fraud and scammer!!!
He was a nice kid when i dealt with him... I got my product and everyhting.. .the mistake he made in our transaction could have been an honest mistake. And with all this happening it is probably why he hasnt gotten back to me about refunding some of the money.
Im not saying he is innocent by anymeans but its an interesting story..

Because after a couple of posts he retracted his statement and said it was his "cousin"

no the computer was sold to a cousin who also attended bsu and needed a computer. he quit after last semester and he hasnt been seen since.
its a family delinquency and fraud. and the cops are already saying im ****ed for getting my money back.

I really don't want to jump to things but it almost seemed like he was about to put the blame on you... if that's the same comp..

Waaaaaayyyy to many inconsistencies IMO... The guy wants everyone to love him, so he just keeps spending, spending, spending... Until of course, we ALL end up paying for it (Higher Interest Rates, Scams, General Erosion of Trust...) D-Bag to the Highest degree!
I wonder if the computer he's talking about that he sold to "some guy" is actually you...

I'm sure he was a great customer of Forged because he was apparently running himself deeper into debt even then . I think it's admirable that you want to give him the benefit of the doubt but at this point the evidence against him is pretty compelling. He may have seemed like a stand up guy through your limited interactions but how well do you really know him?
Having someone steal your identity to establish lines of credit and purchase items without your knowledge is very different than selling a bunch of fake items, having the money sent to your paypal, your bank account, and doing this using your cell phone.

What constitutes being a stand up guy? Paying for items from your store? IMO that makes you a customer. I mean I order Papa John's all the time. Doesn't make me a stand up guy, only makes me a fat a$$.
Maybe I am missing something there.I do agree with Nerd that it will take a while to notice someone applying to for loans and credit cards in your name unless you check your credit report monthly or have a credit protection service. Having said that, her circumstances and this situation are not apples and apples.

Wait, just looked at the thread you were in... You just got taken for $2500 and now you are trying to close a sale with a guy that has made one post on the forums? I think I may just be inevitable that you continue to get robbed... Happy Shopping!

I bought a set of new Nismo headers from Kasimmmmm. I was stressed for a little while because he kept promising a tracking number and I never got one but the headers did arrive.
Beautiful nerd, I like a few others admire your loyalty, but if you would do this for someone who is at best your acquaintance, I bet if your friends were accused of anything, you would show up with no less than a tank and a small army 
.
Judging by want I have read, blackpearlz is merely a few days away from a long vacation in a very small room

Being a seller is another story, obviously
Edit: I see many of the last posts made are in agreement with this statement, haha

someone unless there are other members who know them personally, up to and including their current location. iTrader means absolutely nothing, and yes, a good guy can turn bad so in this case it might not have helped, although I would not do a deal like this unless someone could vouch that he actaully ahd the parts he was selling. Way too many people going in eyes wide shut IMHO.
Not true. Similar stuff happened to me, RIGHT UNDER MY NOSE, and I didn't see it. A girl I worked with stole my identity, and started purchasing things and applying for loans and auto financing in my name. It was happening for almost 2 months before I even got word of it. I ran out of money in my bank account (never checked to see that it was slowly dwindling away) and started getting letters from banks and car dealerships, about loans and such that I never applied for, and cars I never even looked at.
