ATV Discounter SCAM Part 2

Typical experience with ATV Deceivers is as follows..

They send you the wrong bike, (a cheaper older model) then keep their fingers crossed that you will either not know the difference or just deal with it and hide out with your money in their pocket + the added bonus of a few hundred extra you sent for the newer bike you don't get, so they basically make double profit.

Their main tactics involve completely ignoring emails and shutting off the phones, leaving only the main "buy a bike" number open and when you call that number they say you have to call the other number that never picks up. You end up leaving many nasty emails messages exc they are all ignored hoping you will go away. They have 31 complaints with the BBB and many angry customers.. here are just a few...

Then after you go thru all that you finally figure out whats really going on and you take serious action. In my case filed a complaint with ebay and my credit card company.

Once they see your getting serious they then switch to new tactics. They actually threaten you that they will take legal action against you for giving them a bad name. They also start responding to your emails and tell you that there email and phones must have been broken or you must have never called because they did not get the message.

After they play that game they start a new one. They tell you they will arrange pickup of the wrong bike and will send you out a new one or refund you AS SOON as your bike gets on their truck. After it gets on the truck they stop responding again and then send ebay and your credit card company the tracking number for the original bike and tell them you must be crazy..

************************************************** ***********

She called me this morning and told me to get the bike ready to ship out tomorrow because shes going to refund the money. Shortly after the phone call I email her the details of what we talked about and asked her to confirm it so I would have it in writing. As soon as I send that email she then stops responding again and shuts off the phone.. I try all day long to get in touch with her with no luck. Later on that afternoon I get a truck driver at my door asking for the bike. I was not home yet and my friends knew what was going on and told him its not suppose to be picked up untill tomorrow. I purposely emailed her this morning right after the call to get the agreement in writing before the next day when he was suppose to pick up the bike so I was not out my bike and my money.

Looks like that was the her plan after all.. I still have the bike.. she is hiding again... H E L P!!
