Default Where is NEMESIS924 ? Another Ripoff

Hi guys.
This is my first post on this forum and I`m sorry that it is another rip off story.

Does anyone know the whereabouts of fellow member NEMESIS924?

In late March he replied to a WTB for a 931 S2 manifold I posted on 924 Board, where I am a member. He acknowledged receiving my payment for it and the shipping, which was quoted at 6 to 8 weeks.

While I appreciate that shipping often is delayed it is now 15 weeks and I have received nothing. Furthermore he has failed to reply to my communication and I notice that he has not posted here for 2 months.

Any input will be greatly appreciated, either publicly here or confidentially.

Late last year, he posted about a "major illness" that caused a "near death" experience. Hope he's ok.

I bought an AFM from him in May and haven't received it. It was only $20, but I would like to see something, provided he is OK...

Does anyone have his phone number. I think he is around Davis Cailifornia... Somone posted seeing a 931 in the area, and he said it may have been his wife as she was "down in that area for work".

I wonder if his "near death experience" happened to involve someone buying parts from him.....

Really? I thought his username said he was from Canada.
