Problems with Mike440

Hey guys, we have hopefully seen the thread about Mike440 and the older one about ply30. It's Justin Figgott coming back and scamming people.

There's a thread on him right now, and Joey just banned him, but he'll probably be back unless he gets thrown in jail.

I think we should talk the strategy on how we should address this here in the gold forum, so he would have to re-join and sign-up for another gold member ship to see what we are doing. If he knows our plan, then he can react accordingly, we want to catch him by surprise like a deer in the head lights... (and the ones he hunts)

When I started posted some of his personal info in the other thread, he started shutting them down and making them private. We don't want him to shut everything down, as that's a good way to keep tabs on what he's up to... Then it will be easier to catch him on his next round attempts sooner.

Should we get the local news media involved? It would shame him and gramps around town. But do we want to spook him into running and then if the police do decide to go after him, it will be harder for them to find him... It's better that he stays at home with grandpa like a sitting duck...

I agree that everyone who got taken should press charges at both a local and federal level. Throw the book at him and get him locked up as long as possible.

Let's try to use this thread to discuss our plan, and to document the case and history for reference and for the others who got taken can use for their benefit. Try to keep it organized and post as many relevant links together in a post as possible.

Let's get all of his addresses, phone numbers, social media links, his parts web site links. I also recommend copying any and all pictures that you can of his. Especially the parts and cars for sale, as he will probably re-use them when he sets up another user ID and starts posting ads again....

Hopefully Joey can keep the current ones closed, but still available to refer back to...

I don't like this scammer hanging around our site and ripping us all off....

The mods and Joey can only do so much before affecting innocent new members. We all have to band together and keep a close watch out for him. Chances are, he'll be back... Let's see how fast we can flush him out when he does....

And when he does, lets document it in this thread and get Joey and the mods on it. Some of you saw it right away when he first re-signed up but there wasn't enough proof for them to act on, let's gather our intel and catch him right away if he tries it again...

Just some thoughts, what do you guys think???
