Anyone with other relevant links and info please post in this thread.
Please try to keep the "die scammer" and other OT stuff to a minimum as the purpose of this thread is to consolidate information for the benefit of those who were scammed, ranting can be done elsewhere.

Again please do not post in here unless you have something relevant to contribute.

Thanks Mulder. Here's a thread I posted on the South East region and it has a picture of the culprit. Latest person he scammed was Top Speed. Doug has all his info, seen him and his car in person, so it'll soon be over :devil:

I'm guessing his car won't stick out so much anymore (selling his bodykit so probably took it off), so you'll have to look out in MS for just about any Blue WRX.

Good luck catching this guy, hope he gets a good ass whooping.

Hope you can find him, but that doesn´t change anything on the lost money! :(
I do not give anything on paypal research, as they will not refund the money I think! :(
Would be great if anyone could sqeeze him out until he refunds money to all the scammed people, like me!
So many scammers out there, what happened to the fair traders and buyers?!

man what a loser

yeah dude scammed me too he sold me what he said were 2000degree coated headers and uppipe but i got them and look good untill i put them on and ran it down the street and it ended up being spray painted it just burned off. He wouldnt give me at least 100 back the parts were good but just not coated and i spent a pretty buck on them i sent him picks and all and then he was like hell pay for the header wrap that i bought but thats ridiculous cause i alread spent the money for used parts for brand new prices cause he said they were coated so i atleast wanted 100 back, i think thats resonable dont you. I shouldve gave him a bad review but i got kinda over it like anybody could do anything about gettin some money back. But anyways hes deff. a scammer. I thought i was the only one he did it to since he had good ratings. But im glad this thread came through thnx to the moderator. Thnx man for puting him in the dirt.

You're one of the lucky ones to at least get something from him. I lost my $3k set of Volk wheels and tires coz we're supposed to be doing a wheel trade. I've got nothing from him, not even stock wheels and tires. What return address did he have on the box he shipped the headers in? And how did you pay him? We could use your help.

Actually that probably is just another made up address. How did you pay him? PM me.

payed him paypal but well it was worth a try to look up this address. This was like in may if that helps any.

i just looked at my paypal account and it says payment to LK Truckin llc. Like the other guy posted.

i did some research he gave me a trackin # from usps but the file is offline it says but they gave me the option to leave my email so i did hopefully they can give me the address that usps store he originally sent the package through. I do remember it was different than the address on the box. But seriously how far do you think he would drive to deliver a box so hopefully when i get the address people can start searching that area ill keep everyone posted.

That guy is bad man :(

Yeah, he's pretty bad. Dont buy from him

I sent him $3300 for an STI driveline and brakes. I haven't received the parts, and he is not answering his phone.

He gave me this info:

Holy ****. Can you say felony? That's grand theft. And I'm sure this is over state lines, so it's a federal crime.

This guy is in way over his head...

I payed through paypal to this e-mail: jdmspeedexpress@yahoo.com

somebody needs to catch this guy

Yes and the best to catch him is police to put him into prison and our money back!

I guess I might as well add the post from the headlights he scammed me on as well.

Did the car have plates?

I was too ripped off by this guy a while back he went by the name of John Kellum, I saved all emails and my money order receipt for $700 dollars, we were supposed to trade parts for his wheels he said he had 18x8 gold volk CE28ns i paid him the 700 and traded a brand new Exedy flywheel and brand new spec stage 4 clutch for the wheels. I called him on the phone wanting to know where my stuff was and he kept telling me that it was on its way. He sent me 2 tracking numbers for all the stuff well when the 2 packages showed up I had a spare tire and a batterycharger for some phone. freaking prick. The names on the packages was John Thomas not John kellum. The phone number he gave me was 205-213-6583. I am going to give the Sherrif's office a call and the FBI a call about this on monday.

Tristan

Any news on this guy, someone has to catch him and tell the police about this, as I live in Europe it´s impossible for me to act anyway! :(

Area code 662 is in the state or region of Mississippi.

To those guys who have been scammed by John Kellum, you need to contact/email Sgt. Gary Moore (gmoore@columbusms.org) and give him all your information/documents and evidences ASAP, if you haven't done this already. DO IT ;)

im curious to see a total monetary value of everything he has scammed/stole, im guessing its over 10,000...

Try over $50k of stolen goods and money :furious:

seriously that high? sounds like this guy is going to be put away for a long time...john, josh or whoever you are, say hello to big bubba for me

Anyone would like a front picture of the scam artist pm me.

Anyone would like a front picture of the scam artist pm me.

Call me sceptical but, your member number is rather high, you just joined and your first and only post is in a scammed forum. Just sounds really fishy.

I just thought i could help you guys out . If you dont want the picture dont worry about it, It is not any harm to me wether you want the pic or not.

If you really want to send a picture just post it up here. Do a search, and find out how to post it in the forum. The reason this sounds fishy is because you probably just joined the forums in the last day, and your very first post you asked us if we wanted to see a picture of a guy who scammed us. Next thing you know you are asking for my personal email so you can send the picture to me. Now most people (I stress most) do not join this type of forum and find a thread that has lied dormant for a week and post something in it. You would have had to search for this thread, for all I know you could be the scammer himself trying to send a virus or are being malicious in some other way. Sorry if it sounds overly cautious, but I have already been screwed here once, and it is hard to find trust in people I don't know personally.

this isnt his car, is it? was searching on ebay for 2.5's and noticed this popped up. WAY too much car for the amount of money they are asking, and seemed like a list of parts on this car that compares to parts I read up on him scamming earlier this year.

I dunno if thats any good. My name is pavementsucks over on rs25.com, pm me there if this was useful info.

that's not him... that car has got to be the victim of a divorce or something. the wife sells it for 8k to piss the ex off. that car is beautiful.

it could just be a straight up scam. when i owned my old 88 Supra Turbo, people would pull pictures and mod lists of Supras off of supraforums.com and post them on ebay pretending to sell them. once we figured out whose car it was, we let them know and they emailed ebay to have it pulled down as a scam.

Going to BUMP this up for the rest of the guys who haven't filed a complaint yet. Just recieved a call from the person in charge of this case now so Call Columbus FBI ASAP, contact name is JAY BURTON (662) 328-5299
