Exclamation Guys, please help find a fraud - Sam @ GTM

As title says - please help find a rogue Sam Zawahra from GTM power who has stolen $2,084.12 from me.

I have ordered their stage 4 fuel system in August 2014. And guess what - they have not shipped it yet.

Sam told me numerous times that they are finishing new pump, testing the fuel pressure, and tomorrow, tomorrow, next week, next week for sure!.....

When I was finally fed up with this I told him to refund the payment I made with credit card. He told me OK. This was followed up with with two days of lies about he hasnt received my email, his computer is rebooting, they have an unstable internet connection and so on.

Now they dont reply to my dozens of emails, they dont pick up the phone anymore for more than a week...




If anybody has contact info with Sam or Pablo or any other guy from GTM - please let me know.

Thank you for reading this.

Mike was filling people in with details a while ago. I can't remember what forum/thread, but it didn't sound good.

It was on the 370 forum, they had a big group buy that went bad.

GTM has been a ponzi scheme scam shop since at least 2009.. OP I hope you paid with a credit card...

Yes, with credit card. Is there any institute in the US where I can send a claim?

My credit card is Ukrainian, not the US.

There are lines of people over here who lost $10K+, I would contact your credit card/ bank and see if they can help you.

Make a claim with your credit card company. Let them know you were the victim of fraud. In most cases, they will reverse the charges and sell the debt to a collection agency (who will then chase the seller).

THIS. My Amex would reverse the charge on the spot, and I'd never hear about it again.

sounds like your vag is still leaking ogie. as we have said many times, complaining on a forum isn't going to get your money back, try taking him to court.

Just a FYI for anyone hoping to get things resolved from GTM Power
Sam Zawahra just recently passed away from cancer
Might explain why everyone was having issues

Karma is real.

I, and others raised with values don't mess with people for that very reason. Do unto others how you want to be treated.
