TIMMMMAAAAHHHH is back! - WARNING TO WHT'ERS -
Well, "Timmaaahh is back".
His IM : Funzize
Alias : "Joshua Brady"
Alias company : "The Neo Group"
Just a warning to WHT'ers. I dont know if this is the real timmaahh, but he sounds a lot like a Kentuckian (sorry for the stereotype) - Where the original timmah came from.
Correct me if Im wrong please.. or if youve had any dealings with this guy.
He wanted to buy 40 servers @ $244000 total (dual core opterons, scsi's etc). From my dealings with other fraudulent people, I know how to handle the so called "big orders". Most of these guys just talk like theyre all big to see if they can get a demo machine or some type of free service. Then they get that demo or free service, and never show their faces again. Which is exactly what he tried to do.
One again, please correct me if I'm wrong.
I dont mean anything bad about the real guys out there who run legit companies.

Just inform him that he'll have to pay a non-refundable deposit of $24400 to "insure" his order.
That should take care of it

Awww, come on. We could use a bit of spice in the forums. Let him have the 40 servers.

lol Danx. He supposedly sent a wire.. then when that didnt work.. I pretty much figured he was a fraud. So then he said he'll send out a certified check from BoA...
You win some, you lose some.. This is one I'm very happy never happened for obvious reasons.

If he sounded like a 12 year old girl, that's Timmah.

lol - yeah I was contacted by him to under those same names. he claimed he brought in some big deal for me and needed to email me the contracts. then none of his emails worked. how funny. then he was going to fax it - then that did not work. oh well - lol - now I know why I told him I required a contract and bank wire - yeah you guessed it that was not going to go through either - although he did ask for our bank information which I told him I would be happy to send to his bank officer - well guess what no one ever called back - so definately a scammer.
I ahve some email addresses for him if any one can get some inside scoop from comcast on him.
somitho@comcast.net
and I had a guy also stiff us last year under the name neo.
804-536-7612
cant get anything on these numbers or addresses.
I am not sure this guy is timmah though. his email headers come from comcast in va and the area code goes backt o virginia.
