KEVIN ROUSE SCAMMER from Philadelphia PA 19103 (kioskmanagement@yahoo.com) BEWARE

Have sent KEVIN ROUSE (kioskmanagement@yahoo.com) funds for his DayDate beginning of November and he's been silent ever since. Of course I have not received the watch.

I still have little hope for a good outcoming - but wanted to give everyone a warning as he plastered the web with sales ads for this particular watch in october (when he has already received a downpayment).

Could be a potential FRAUD.

Data that I know:

KEVIN ROUSE *12/17/1970
1931 Rittenhouse Sq.
Philadelphia PA 19103

email: kioskmanagement@yahoo.com

His bank: PNC BANK -150 W. Chelten Ave. Philadelphia, PA. 19144

I'll keep you updated on this threat

looks like he is a new member. Did you checked his references? Prices are too good to be true.

Very sorry you are going through this. A while ago a member called "MR.GMT" messaged me saying he was interested in a Breitling I had for sale. He was also from Philadelphia and had the same name. He said he wanted to buy the watch immediately but never followed through after I gave him wire instructions. Not sure what he was trying to accomplish as I would not ship without the payment clearing (and I'm pretty sure I told him this) but the whole thing was fishy. His info is below:

Terrell Rouse
407 n Salford st. Philadelphia, Pa 19131
(484)4435363


His account seemed perfectly normal before this so not sure if it was hacked. Just thought that because the location and last name were the same, they could be related somehow.

Be careful out there everyone!

I gave up hope that all this will come to a good end.

Is there any TRF member in Philadelphia who could be so kind to drive by the address and see if he's still living there?

As I'd like to file him with the local police - how can I do this from Germany?

Thanks for that info!

I have been told that my seller used a fake PA drivers license.

Do you have any other info on this guy?

Edit:

Now it's clear that we have a scammer:

He sent me a faked driver's id.
The pics from his sales ads are lifted here:

http://www.network54.com/Forum/20767...ding+Condition!!

He recently goes with the email address

iindulge@yahoo.com

and continues to sell over the net. Everyone be careful!

Perhaps a giveaway is that he is selling at $15-16k watch for $11k?

I wish I had more info to give you, but that's all unfortunately. So sorry you've had to go through this.

Please let me know if I can help out in any other way.

Perhaps we should all send him a message and include a link of this thread to that forum's mods.

Report him here, http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx.

It really works... I was scammed once for a few hundred dollars (granted the guy scammed several people and we all reported him through that website) and was contacted by a detective that was on the case after our report. Actually got my money back which I thought was surprising.

He said the DL is fake above. Seeing a DL photo in a tux is a first for me too - WTF!

I'm local in Philadelphia, I'll swing by the address on the DL and do sum snooping. I'll try to get my cop buddy to run the license and see what comes up. Give me a few days and I'll report back with an update. I HATE SCAMMERS ! ! Hopefully everything works out for you.

Good luck with that. Sounds like he doesn't even live in PA.

No one wears a tux to the dmv, that would be my first red flag on the id.
I'm outside Philly and can swing by if necessary...

Be careful out there everyone!
Give this info to the police as well
407 n Salford st. Philadelphia, Pa 19131
I zillowed the address and it's not in the nicest area

The address does not list an apartment and it is a building not a house so no point in swinging by just google earth it and see. The IP of seller is in Kansas so you won't be finding him in Philly. Lastly I banned the guy here as he was using pics from another seller and he took his game to another forum. It stinks and is a bummer it happened to a good guy! This is why if I am not buying from an AD I am only dealing with a small handful of people all of who are very well known and trusted sellers here. Not with a few references or feed backs left but pages and pages like Tony Geha or DavidSW for example. Again too many scammers and bad folk out there to take a risk and gamble at all...at least for me.
