: Interesting tidbids about Chekmi21 --> BUSTED <--



Chris
Oct 09, 02, 01:13 PM
I bid and retracted my bid on the 16" g20 wheels on ebay because I did a bunch of research and found out that the guy who listed them (sangwl1980) is a good friend of chekmi21. I also noticed that chekmi21 bids up the prices on sangwl1980's auctions.

It seems that chekmi21 is having his friend sangwl1980 list/sell the wheels for him AND they are bidding up the price with a new id they just created on August 8, 2002. Great job guys!

Here are a bunch of links I found proving my point:

http://camaroz28.cardomain.com/id/sangwl

http://camaroz28.cardomain.com/id/chekmi21

AND look at this bid histories on these:

http://cgi6.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=1863336693

http://cgi6.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=1386622566

...and note the new id drvrcr bidding on the above item as well as on this infamous auction!

http://cgi6.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=1866561000


WOW!!!!!!

If this is true, you need to report this to eBay NOW.

That is totally against eBay rules and it unethical and immoral.

makes interesting reading, but is this really the place? maybe it is, so other dont get fooled. either way if there is something funny going on, shouldnt Ebay be contacted with this evidence?

Chris
Oct 09, 02, 01:23 PM
It looks like someone already did because I went to report it and ebay prompted me with a message that the auctions were already reported and being investigated and that it will take time 4-5 days before the end resolution is determined.

Ebay will probably just give a 'warning' is my guess.

I bought this up here BECAUSE of the whole wheel fiasco with chekmi21 and it seems apparent that this guy is up to more stuff that is just no good and it does relate to G20 stuff so I felt an obligation to post here what I found.

If the moderators choose to close this or delete this, I won't bring it up again.

well, well, well, keep us informed, if you can, about what Ebay have to say. But is there a way for us to find out, not actually being the parties involved?

Chris
Oct 09, 02, 01:30 PM
I've gotten people kicked off ebay (no longer a registered user) by reporting shill bidding in the past for stuff completely unrelated to g20 stuff so that is about the only way to see if anything happens.... to check back in about a week to 10 days and see if the IDs are still valid.

Unfortunately, ebay is often very slow to investigate and even slower to do something because I think they just want their money and have become too big.

We will see if any of the ebay user ids suddenly become (no longer registered users) within the next few weeks ;)

Well, for one thing you can check the user names on eBay and see if they have been kicked off. Personally, if I were ripped off by this sort of scam, I'd be inclined to report them to both my and their police departments for fraud or whatever applies. Clearly some auction bidders had to spend more money to win the auction than they should have.

Oct 09, 02, 01:38 PM
sad that this happens but in one way its good we got you here to investigate it one of us or anyone might have bought something and never gave it a second thought .. so i appreciate the time chris
as far as checkmi the thing is if someone is defrauding here remember to watch your backs cuz later on they can alsways sign on under a diff name and play up another role to screw people u never know lol that sandi guy might be a new member lol

ok i'm out

Perhaps I should switch careers to becoming an Internet PI!

I got one guy kicked off ebay 5 times in 5 months because he kept siging up new ids but tried to sell the same thing over and over again from the same location (DUH!).

So if someone NEW here suddenly starts advertisinig G20 16" wheels and is from Boston, MA... I'd start getting suspicious + my guess is that someone has Chekmi21's real name -- oh wait, his name is clearly posted on his cardomain website -- such a deal!

This kind of fraud is a civil matter so the Police won't do anything about it. You gotta go to court. Either small claims court OR get a lawyer involved!

Oct 09, 02, 01:56 PM
Chris,

You do very good work. Keep it up. Who knows, maybe Chekmi21 and sangwl1980 are the same person.
Either way, it is wrong for someone to do that.
In the past (2 years ago), I called eBay in San Francisco. I received better results speaking directly with someone vs. email. I have the # at home if you are interested. I could post it later on tonight.

IMO, eBay needs to do more than a simple slap on the wrist!

Chris
Oct 09, 02, 01:59 PM
I'd be willing to make that phone call!

Heck, maybe they are looking for an ebay PI and I can move to San Fran (LOL)


Please do PM, email or post the ebay phone number for me! I'd love to talk to an actual person!!!!!!!!


Thanks much!!!!

Chris,

I have two #s. I don't remember which is the right one, it has been about 2 years since I called. Both are for eBay though.
408-558-7400 and 408-376-7400

Definitely keep us posted on the outcome.

Oct 09, 02, 03:07 PM
I just called Ebay AND they tell me that they will ONLY handle Safe Harbor issues via email web form now. I can call back in 36 hours if I don't hear anything to follow up on the claim already filed by someone!

grrr....


I guess I'll call back in a few days if nothing else happens!

It is necessary to have it on our forum because he is trying to sell his items here too. Wouldn't you want to be warned if it were you paying out $300 and recieving nothing in return?

I gave him some heat in the other thread 'cuz I knew he was full of sh!t.

I lost $400 on ebay last year ordering springs for my G20. It might not seem like a lot of money to those who have money to throw away or just have money saved. but when you work for it and then lose it knowing it coulda been used on other things is what hurts.

The idea of a Buyer/Seller rating have been rolling for a while, the only problem I see is that Geo is the only Mod that is active in the forums, at least, he is the only doing his job as moderator.

I wonder where is Brian, also wonder if Jason gave him all the power over G20.net and now he can't do anything in his creation.

It's time to wake up G20.net!!!!

Chris
Oct 10, 02, 07:53 AM
It would also be nice to see a way to have positive ratings here on g20.net so we can know ahead of time what people have had successful happy buy/sell dealings with g20.net classifieds. I know I've bought a few things and sold a few things myself and wasn't able to leave any sort of rating (like ebay or other sites) much less have any rating for myself... oh well...

This guy gets around!!!!!

In case anyone wanted to know, I ended up giving up on Chekmi21 and notified my credit card company and faxed them all my documentation from Paypal and the correspondence I had with chekmi21. I got a nice letter yesterday from my credit card company telling me they will make sure it is all taken care of and that I don't have to pay the $314.80 so I have a credit on my card right now (Such a deal!)

It just goes to show that using your credit card (even on paypal) CAN help in a case of FRAUD!!!!!

Oct 10, 02, 10:35 AM
I emailed all the current bidders on the current auction for the same wheels I supposedly bought from chekmi21 telling them about what happened to me and letting them know they can look up the details here on g20.net.

Maybe I should email them again NOW to point them to this thread and the shill bidding happening now!

Scam upon scam! What a low life scum!

Good work Chris.

I've been screwed over before (All Revved Up) and it's not fun. No one should be pulling this type of stunt, esp. another G owner. It's unacceptable.

Chekmi21 should know better and you did the right thing reporting this incident. Good work Sherlock! :)

Hey G20 SpoRt 2002 :

I guess you never got ripped off by someone huh? I have and it doesn't leave you all warm and fuzzy afterwards. So I guess you are one of those people that wouldn't bother reporting a crime if your not involved and would never stop to help someone in obvious need!

Yes, I've stopped when I saw someone on the side of the road with an obvious problem (blowout or car smoking/on fire) and asked if they had a phone and/or needed me to contact anyone for them etc. etc.

I guess I am just that kind of person! Which is why I took the time to investigate Chekmi21!

I don't know the specifics on the the software version/programming that Brian is using to run/update the forum, so i'm not sure how easy it would be to implement something like this to all the users. It would be a rather large change, from what I understand. However, for the time being, or possibly even a permanent solution, we could make a sticky thread at the top of the classifieds section that lists all the bad sellers, good ones might be tough as there will be a LOT of names (i'd hope). One person could keep it updated with the names, and if someone had a bad experience they'd just PM that person and let them know the person's name, etc... I say jsut one person that way it doesn't turn into one long rant.

This is better than any soap opera! Real life crime! hehe lol its not better then general hospital but it is fun watching us argue about something someone else is involved in ..

g20 sport dont care most of us dont care either until it happens to us me personally i have been robbed through the internet but i dont bug about it much or cry i just know all will even out maybe we go on a cross country drive and i drive through ohio i beleive it is somebody is going to feel heat in there skin

i like te fact that chris did this for one reason i rather the cops or ebay get to whoever does this kind of stuff wether checkmi did or not because if the cops dont get to them first then i will if it has to do with me and somebody somehow someway is going to be sufferring some reprocutions whatever it means lol but yeah i think its better when people investigate it and etc..

WE ARE REAL PEOPLE NOT JUST
USERNAMES "CASUAL"/Bruce Casual DeRose so whats messed up in real life is just as messed up while posting on here.

so just like how i would come on here and post to find g20sports ride on here if it got stolen is just how we should report that shit when somebody stealing on here--thats for sure!

i'm not that bad of a guy or trying to be just saying that the line i have a casual line in front of me and it is passed sometimes just dont be surprised when i come rushing back in your direction

man if i was checkmik and i did this i would of came back on here and said yes i did and what -- us online cant do much about it but be like damn and not fall for it again but he's a punk ass for dissapearing and not clearing it up if i was any of the people he scammed i would suddenly be his best friend for a while i leave that at that ..

The craziest part of all this is i actually dont even think he did anything wrong as far as the paypal thing he just messed up in trying to clear it up ... ITS MAD SIMPLE 1800 PAYPAL OR WHATEVER HELLO SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS TRANSACTION U NEED TO CHECK IT ---PLEASE HOLD SIR FOR LIKE FOREVER ON HOLD THEN SIR BLAH BLAH AND GET IT FIXED OR CEBOYD WHAT IS YOUR # AND CALL PAYPAL ON THREEWAY END OF STORY!

3. just say please man give mr ryte back his car
4.just try to shoo him away

me i'm popping the trunk hitting him with whatever i can find spare tire golf clubs if he hits me back word even better cuz then u dont have to hold back at all cuz he was stealing your car and attacked you. aww man i look at my car like my girl if a group of guys is sitting there about to jack my whip i'm standing up wether i get jumped or not

In that situation:
1. I'd ask you to call 911 IMMEDIATELY!!!
2. I'd ask you to stand close by and watch for other lowlifes that may come out to help this punk.
3. I'd take of my belt and whip the !@#$%^&* outta that kid till the cops arrive and stop ME!!!:monster: :evil:

In this situation:
Someone was making us aware of a dishonest member. Unfortunately, he's not around for us to beat with a belt or bring to justice.:crosseyed Like I said, I want to know about someone being dishonest. In fact, I just checked Ebay and there's a guy in Boston tryin to sell 2002 G20 rims as we speak. I for one would warn buyers to see if they can get the wheels first before giving him the money. Or arrange some sort of COD transaction just in case it's the same crook we've been warned about. I've no problem with that. I was making note of how I noticed some name calling and foul language was turning this thread into something else other than what it was originally intended to be. If someone wants to investigate another member for whatever reason, that's their concern not mine. If someone else is offended when someone wants to investigate another member for whatever reason and bring his questionable practices/dealings to the attention of other members; again no concern of mine. Someone felt that the actions of another forum member was inappropriate and spoke out accordingly. That's their right, which I respect.
But this forum is for discussion, not name calling and arguing. To me, that how it seemed the thread was headed and that's what I spoke out in disfavor of. If I'm wrong, I accept responsibility and had no intention of offending anyone. I was merely stating that before we get into the who said what to whom stuff, let's all try to avoid letting our pride and emotions get the better of us. We don't have to see I 2 I on everything, nor do we have to respond disrespectfully to those that disagree.






That said, y'all better chillout b4 I open up a 40 oz. of whip-a$$ on all y'all.....

Mr. Ryte was again Right, Causal is always right and makes good points so this thread should continue how it is and it does suck to get robbed through the internet.

When i bought the stillen lip off of Luke, someone hacked into my e-mail after Luke sent me the receipt with my card number on it and some more info, they went all out and spent $250 ONLY. So i checked through the internet my account and saw all that money getting spent, so i wrote the bank and they accredited the money and got the sucker. :rambo:

Oct 10, 02, 08:09 PM
the moral is:


1) try to use your credit card whenever possible to pay for stuff from someone you don't know and have no ability to check on cause if things go bad, the credit card company can do the dirty work and you just get your money back

2) working scams on people eventually catches up to an individual and it is up to that individual to either continue or learn a lesson and take the honest route (we can but hope anyway)

3) be careful to take things with a grain of salt cause it can be taken too seriously or not seriously enough


O.k. folks That's about all I can think of at this moment!

Just so I am totally clear ---> I harbor no ill feelings towards anyone here (except for chekmi21 and his dealings) and hope that I haven't offended anyone other than chekmi21! I hope you accept my apologies if I have.


ever feel like your damned if you do and damned if you don't? I sort of felt like that for a while on this thread but now I'm just neutral and am thinking 'o.k. whatever'


Let's all try to get back to life and move on. How does that sound?

ok back to life it was me and wify driving from barnes and nobles tonight in her car and we see this g35 on the highway so i'm checking it out seeing how it looks while rollin so i slow down go to the back of it and look at the rer then i speed up and go to the right and then i slow down go to the back of it again then to the left

well somehow this g35 thought i wanted to race him lol i just wanted to look at so he starts hazards and starts to bounce lol i was still just chillin then wify says something uncharacteristic of her i was shocked she said '" beat them i didnt like their attitude" at this point i start laughing like crazy we in a 00 is300 stock against that g so i catch up in4th you could tell he is trying to get a good lead but you know when u pressing the gas but the person in the mirror is still eating away at you lead fast and you figure if they ake it next to you they will pass you well

i punch the gas pedal to the floor this guy out of desperation cuts me off to block me ok we on the highway so i chill for a sec putting the volume up and chill out go back to minding my business then he slows down to tell me get off the next exit fine i follow so we go to this back road

make long story short we did about 5 head to head runs straightaway him alone in his car and me and my girl in our car
is3 wins 3 out of 5

the two times i lost i just flat out lost i dont know why but when i would shift it would lag for like a sec before picking up so in that lag the g35 was gone far ahead but the times i won it was like head to head until top speeds and i kind of ate him up at the top speeds

ok thats my story for he night to get us off this nonsense checkmi
and i think the g20 personally if i was driing the g i think it could keep up maybee not beat but keep up with the g35 but thats pedal to the floor every gear while thhe 35 driver is casually racing

blah blah cas shut up
ok
later hey domiken remember that one night i called u on the celli what was it that happened was i racing some cop a while back i remember you were teling me your story about the interstate blah blah i wonder what i called you for that time

I've lost $700 once through Ebay and Paypal....all in one transaction.....I tried everything but never got the money back. E-mailed the people that got ripped for the same deal and they either got no money or partial money....I didn't like the feeling of losing that much money one bit. I continue to use Ebay and Paypal but with extreme caution. There are alot of scammers out ther so be careful everyone.

So Chekmi21 had to have signed on to g20.net and read this post but didn't respond. What he did do, however, is remove his name (real name) from his website.

So I wanted to let everyone know who this person is just so make sure he doesn't try to come back here under another name and scam again.

chekmi21 = HYUNJIN CHANG aka Hon Jin Chang

and his pal sangwl1980 is Sang Lee

and check out ebay feedback on sangwl1980 NOW! A Very recent negative from him selling chekmi21's wheels!

I get the feeling that chekmi21 and sangwl1980 won't be valid ebay members too much longer!

I've been emailing the winning bidder on the wheels and just got a copy of this email admission from sangwl1980 and chekmi21:

Subject: Re: 16" rims
Date: Mon, 14 Oct 2002 00:01:58 -0400
To: <ebaynewbee@roadfly.org>

just wanted to let yo know i'm sorry for the confusion, yes it is true
between me and chekmi21 that we are friends, but we didn't know this would
come out to this, if you would like, you can have the rims for 450 without
shipping. Let me know

once again i'm sorry. I"m not asking you to drop the ebay issue, or get rid
of the feedback, but i'm just trying to make ends meet in a peaceful way. I
you choose to drop the issue that would be great, but its up to you


thx

I hope someone who has been burned by these punks goes after them legally. They are some truly low class jerkoffs and totally without honor. I think the only way they will learn is to really really pay through legal action.

Chris

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to write to us with your concerns. I would
be happy to assist you further.

I can understand your concerns over this issue. I have reviewed the
email and it looks like these two users know each other. In order for me
to take action, however, I will need the full email headers along with
the email itself.

The full header is extremely important, as we cannot take any kind of
action without it. A header will look like a string of "nonsense"
characters, similar to the example I have pasted for you below. You can
find this by using the "properties" function of your email program.

I believe sangwl1980 (recently changed to wookielee) to be in on a shill
bidding scam with his friend chekmi21 and is listing items for him as
well. I received the following email from the seller and want ebay to
investigate this fraud!

Oct 15, 02, 08:36 PM
just my 2 cents but thanks chris , one of the main points ona forum is when one person has a problem and posts about it others come in a gvie a hand , in this case there was a known problem with a party on here , and either chris was bidding on something or just plain investigateing cuz he felt he could help where no one else has , he dug a little found a rather serious prob and posted , possibly helping some bloke out that was thinkin bout buying some 2002 sport wheels ...

its all about someone not knowing something and and someone that does to fix that

not to mention chirs didnt call anyone names or anything , he was professional and stated the facts with little or no opion .

anyway everyone gets theres in the end

and cas , if u see anyone tryong to jack my G feel free to do whatever you want untill you can get ahold of me then he will deal with my and the laws wrath

Oct 15, 02, 09:22 PM
It's nice to see the support for my initial post.

I had no idea it would get such an overwhelming response and posting responses but it has and it seems to keep going.

If sangwl1980 (now wookielee on ebay) and chekmi21 end up becoming 'no longer registered users' on ebay, then I think that will say a lot and perhaps this thread will die and become just one in the archives?

It seems obvious that Sang Lee (wookielee) and his pal Hyun Jin Chang (chekmi21) are monitoring this thread and are unhappy about it. Oh well, such is life.

Yeah, tough shit.

The solution for them is to not engage in unethical and dishonorable practices.

I guess we should consider ourselves fortunate to have only had 2 incidents (dakin or whoever that was with front grill rip off and chekmi21/ceboyd 16" wheel/tire ripoff) that I recall here on G20.net because that Buick turbo site has a lot of bad guys listed!!!!

I'm not on here everyday, but just want to offer a tip o' the hat to Chris and others for shedding some light on these pond scum.

I have some retail businesses where we accept personal checks, and we rely heavily on the integrity & honor of someone's word. When it turns out we've been defrauded, I wish we had some way to warn others. Somehow, posting those bad-check writers' names on our lighted reader boards is always tempting for me.

THANK YOU for shaming these e-bay crooks!!!!!!
