Hello from ClubRSX. Just coming in to show my support and I hope the scammer gets nailed.

I must say though, I think it's pretty embarrassing that you are actually accepting donations for your mistake. I mean a lot of people have been in similar situations. I have been scammed before too and never did I think about asking people for donations. Don't get me wrong, Joseph is the bad guy here, but that doesn't make it OK for you to ask for handouts. And I know the donation thing wasn't your idea, but you're obviously okay with it since it's in your first post. Learn from YOUR mistake.

Again, I'm not here to bash you. Just my $0.02. I hope everything works out in your favor.

And for the people that DID donate, I think that's really amazing of you to help a total stranger out. Makes me think the internet still has some good in it's tubes

We asked to donate. He did not ASK us to donate. That is when he began accepting donations, after we ASKed to donate. It's on page... heck I don't know, but it's back in the threads somewhere.

Well several people recommended it several times before I relented. My intention was not to start this "epic" "legendary" whatever thread. It was merely to notify people that Joe had done what he did and then it blew up from there.

Also, the account is up to $773.

not only that, but these guys are in danger of losing their shop, and falling behind seriously on personal bills. Regardless if they were silly to keep working, or whatever other motivators there were; I would help anyone out in a similiar situation with whatever I could bear at that time.. They did not ask for donations, and were reluctant at first.. The community forced this help on them..

I was on the "throne" (or crapper for some of you...it's where I do my best thinking) thinking about why this thread is different than most...

here's what stands out in my mind...

1. Joe brags about modifications being done, and constantly adds things, knowing that it will cost $$$ to do this. It's not as if he showed up and was plannning on paying $6,000 or $8,000, and got handed a bill for $16,000. He didn't have crap.

2. Joe comes on here, and doesn't actually defend himself. He merely makes threats. He never once stated that he didn't actually authorize the work, only that he didn't sign an estimate. He didn't actually refute the charges, or state they were unreasonable, but instead only talked about getting the car back by Friday. He knows what he was attempting to do.

3. He gave his Balls to the women in his life, and made them do the dirty work.

4. He tried to modify an Automatic base model Celica with a turbo.

5. TR and half of the world are stomping on those balls right now.

Congratulations you weasel felching cock gobbler. That post pushed me off the fence on donating a few bucks to help these guys out. How does it feel knowing that complete strangers are throwing money at the mere prospect of seeing you burned at the proverbial stake?
