What to do if scammed by DTR member?
I sent a member of DTR a M/O for parts he had listed on the classifieds here on DTR. He says "oh ya, ill get those sent out beginning of next week", which has been 4 weeks ago and now has stopped returning PM and E mail. What to do? Anyone from North Carolina? That is where he is at.
His DTR name is "keithduke01"

Thanks

Did you mean DTR? I'm having a bit of trouble finding a "keithduke01" anywhere on TDR (Turbo Diesel Register). You must've meant DTR. It wasn't until AFTER I search the other site (TDR) that I re-read your question and saw the word "here" in reference to "TDR" and figured it out. Words (and Initialisms) have meaning.

Hit edit the same way I did, and after you save the edits, hit refresh, and you'll see not only your changes, but mine as well.

Sounds like theft. Can you have the police look into this?

Transactions between members are private.
However if there is a problem with one of the members here, send a Private Message to Lary Ellis.

BTW we have several members in North Carolina, including a few members who are in Law Enforcement.

I like to only buy from members who have established themselves here. I won't buy from a 10 post member who only registered to try to sell something and scam us....

Good luck......

Do you know if there are any members of DTR near Pana IL , preferably LEOs?

I may be in a similar situation.

roughstock, I don't know him but he lives in Salisbury, NC which is only like 15 to 20 minutes away from Linwood. What all did you purchase from him? Maybe I can track him down or something......

Good to hear I'm not the only one who was having trouble with this Keithduke01 fellow. I haven't got my part and he won't return PM's.

http://www.whitepages.com/search/Rep...=3&more_info=1

Looks like he is still living with his parents? I hope this helps someone, They have the same last name, and incidentally , there is another Redman on the same road, i would say it's a fair chance they are related :
