Title: BrooklynSlop, dealings with Jeff Smith...
Post by: DukeHarding on October 19, 2005, 10:00:56 AM
BrooklynSlop,

You had a transaction with Jeff Smith buying a bowling ball.
Do you have any other info to supply? Name address, UPS tracking number?


Would appreciate any info you have.

Just a poor guy stuck in the middle or a total setup from the get go, if he is legit he will share his paypal details with you guys. I would bet it is different address if jeff smith was taking this guy for a ride, that is the key to catching the smuck who screwed all of you.

My bs detector told me Jeff Smith was fake i warned a couple of guys with pm's and in case i was wrong stayed off the post, because it was wrong if he was legit to bash a real guy for no reason.

I can honestly say that BrooklynSlop is not "Mr. Douchebag Jeff Smith!!!!" Brooklynslop is one of my teamates on my tuesday night mens league!!! I can vouch for him!!! I know him very well and he is a good friend!! I personally saw the ball he got from that Jeff Smith fellow!

I have no reason to lie about this!!! Can anyone prove that I am not honest? I have credentials on here!!!! Check the "whos good and Whos bad" to deal with section!!!!

Come on guys!!! I know you folks got burned and you are shooting in the dark trying to hunt a witch but, dont go point fingers and accusing people of things!!!!

Hey, it might be slop but, it all looks the same on the scorecard!!!!!

okay people... i've been getting a lot of pm's from people b/c i did buy a ball from this douche bag about a week ago... here's the deal:

i have deleted my pm's from him with his info and thought i had thrown away the box the ball was sent in. BUT...

i found the box in my recycle. thank god i'm too lazy to take the recycle when i go to the dump!!! here is the address he used to ship it from:

Jeff Smith
4000 Mountain Ln
Wausau, WI 54401-9200
United States

he was new and seemed like an up and up guy, so i thought i would give him a chance ON ONE CONDITION... i wanted his phone number so i could call and talk to him... so he gave it to me...

he answered the phone within a few rings and sounded pretty professional. he sounded a bit younger than i expected, but it's really hard to tell much from that... anyway, i figured since i deleted the pm, i could find his number because i called using my cell... but the number has dropped off my recent call list. i am going to check with my phone company tomorrow to see if they can get it for me because i DID talk to this douche rocket and i know he exists whether his name is jeff smith or what.

in terms of the ball he sent me, i thought you all would find this interesting... the ball was in good shape at first glance. by agreement, he sent it fully plugged. however, when my proshop dude went to drill it up, he found that there was still a slug and some tape left in the thumb hole and it was plugged over. it was a rigged job!!! now i have to go through and have it plugged again... i payed paypal and have also filed a complaint with them. i pm'd the guy and emailed but i have gotten no answer at all...

i'm really sorry for anybody else who got screwed by this dick, alot of you got screwed worse than me... at least my ball is usable after repair... sounds like you guys didn't even get your stuff. i feel really bad for posting a good seller review, but i did recieve my ball... and it looked like it was in good shape... i don't really know what to say. it's pretty f'd up. i hope some of this info helped and i will try to get a phone number from my cell company as soon as i can... good luck everyone.

saw... looks like it was printed at ups... not a home computer print out

bar... thanks for the suggestion...

EVERYONE... I USED THIS CONTRACT VIA EMAIL AND PAYPAL WHEN I PAYED HIM. this could have scared him into sending it? i dunno... maybe i was just meant to be the scapegoat... here's the contract i always use...

"By acceptance of this payment by the seller, and acceptance of the shipment by the buyer, both parties agree to the following:

The seller agrees to the above description of the shipment as certified in statements prior to the transaction.  If for any reason, and without proper notice, the shipment is not received by October 31, 2005, the deal is null and void, and the seller agrees to refund the entire amount of the payment as well as a reparations fee of $20.00 for a total not to exceed $60.00.  Once the shipment is received, the buyer agrees to approve the quality and condition of the shipment as stated in the above description within 7 days of receipt.  If there is no formal complaint levied by the buyer in that time, then the buyer will have no recourse going forward unless otherwise agreed upon by both parties in writing."

The number this guy gave could be the right number and he could have acted like he didn't know what was going on when people called him.  This is also a possibility if he would be dumb enough to actually give the correct info....

It sounds like Jeff Smith PBA used Brooklyn Slop as his
"proof" of being a good seller.

His one deal and the rest of us jumped in because of the incredible prices.

I actually dove off the platform but somehow stopped in mid air.

His post last night about getting back from league after saying he would send tracking during day let me stop in mid air.

Until someone told me their tracking number and a weight which was NOT entered by seller but read by UPS.

Regarding Brookln Slop if he can come up with number he dialed in Michigan and reached guy then I think that would completely clear him.  I"m fairly convinced he was an innocent dupe.  I believe it is awesome of him to see what his phone company can provide.  Also UPS often has a number for phone OR even on the box the phone number is included.

Is the motorcycle racer reached in Michigan not a bowler...it states he was a world Motocross champion.  ....But not a bowler???

REGards,

I think the people who are being scammed should spend more energy tracking this individual instead of going on this witch hunt.  The truth will come out until you get this scammer.

Some of you are wrong here when some here warned about if it seems too good to be true then it's not.  You guys decided on your own to buy....now you should concentrate on getting your money back.

Just checked out that phone number on 411.com

Results:

We're sorry. We did not find a listing for the phone number you entered.
The phone number "(715) 298-8225" is a Wausau, WI based phone number and the registered carrier is Charter Fiberlink, Llc - Wi. However, due to number portability, some numbers have been transferred to a new service provider other than the registered carrier.

Duke,

I think I would email them or call them back and ask them if they are going to go pay this jeff smith guy a visit to see if his story matches up that he is not the guy that ripped us off..

Did you ask him that? Just wondering because its really funny how a visit from a police officer with strighten a thief out..

okay... so the police guy's name is Jeff too? not to make light of the situation, but is everyone in Wausau named Jeff??? LOL.\


I thought the same thing...and pictured him replying and then deleting my email to him...at least his last name wasn't Smith!

JK,

I did email him back...Told him for the safety of the citizen it probably would be a good idea to check this out. After all this guy (at the Wausau addy) may just be an innocent citizen...That should (hopefully) make the Deputy Chief stop and think about it....

i have contacted ups and my local authorities for advice on this subject...

ups says that because the package was properly recieved by me, regardless of the condition, they are unable to persue anything in the matter, so not much help there.

i have gotten a couple PM's from people wanting to know the tracking number while i was out today... both my local authorities and ups have advised me not to give out the tracking number or any other personal information that i may know about this guy to ANYONE for ANY REASON. my local police have advised me that i, and whoever else has posted information about this guy, may already be guilty of LIBEL and may be subject to a civil suit by anyone who's information has been posted online, regardless of whether they are guilty or innocent of the crime in question.

having said that, my local police seem to be willing to get involved in this thing as much as they can. they have been in touch with the Wausau, WI police department and are investigating the matter. i gave the box to my local police and they are going to send it to the Wausau, WI police department to help them...

i have spent a good majority of my day trying to help you guys get your money back and get this guy caught. i don't really have much to gain from it, being that i recieved my stuff (even though the plugging was horrible). yet i STILL come home to find all this CRAP on here accusing me of being jeff smith and blah blah... i'm F**KING SICK OF IT ALREADY!!! i don't know what else i can do to prove my innocence, so i'm done trying... why should i even help you guys????? i'm starting to hate this forum... unbelieveable.

    Gary Smith bowls at Dale's Weston Lanes about twice a week, maybe just maybe this guy has a son named Jeff stole his dads idenity of being a pba senior bowler and the other jeff smiths address and phone number. Most thugs are not too bright and would not use enough sense to eliminate all things around them.

   I would get ahold of Gary Smith and see if any family members named jeff, it would not surprise me at all, so google Dale's weston lanes and leave a message for GAry to return your call.

This is a COPY of a post I made under a different header, just for info.....

 I emailed the Wausau police a few times.

I emailed:

Jeff Hardel
Deputy Chief
Wausau Police Department
515 Grand Avenue
Wausau, WI 54403
715-261-7802

here is his email addy: jghardel@mail.ci.wausau.wi.us


I received a CC email from the following Inspector:

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Here is my e-mail address: gahagenbucher@mail.ci.wausau.wi.us

Let me know if the Sheriff's Department takes the complaint.

Inspector Greg Hagenbucher
715-261-7807

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

They are working on the case...

The more emails and phone calls they receive the better...
Don't let them forget about us....


The FBI basically FWDs the case to the local police authorities.

WE need that tracking number.. How are you going to get in any trouble?? This guy has stolen over $1,000 of people's money here and we need that tracking number to have the guy that works at UPS track where the ball was shipped from.

The advice you are getting is crap.. NO way you can be held libel for giving out the tracking number as long as its not in a public forum.

I was believing you when you said you had nothing to do with all this but there should be no reason why you will not give out that tracking number to someone via a private message, no reason at all.. You are then not held accountabel for anything.. Its not posted in public..

Another thing, and I'd ask Michelle to comment on this.

If the internet fraud gets involved, I'd like to think that if this crosses state lines even though no goods were ever exchanged, then this is a federal offense.  If that's true, though this person may have taken the money out of any and all accounts, I believe the federals would be able to get any and all related information from Paypal pertaining to address, bank accounts, etc.

I heard through Jim that Paypal won't do anything.  That's because they suck plain and simply put.  Makes me really wonder about using them, but most of what I do here is with people I trust.



The issue that would make the incomplete deals a federal offense is the use of the internet, as the servers create the interstate commerce boundaries that rise to the level of federal offenses.  

It has been far too many years since I have been in Wausau, so my contacts there are limited to the occasional trips made by dad to check on my aunt's old property (they are doing the long distance landlord thing).  However, it sounds as though Wausau PD and possible Marathon County SO are picking up the ball to at least try and make a run at things.  One thing I remember about Wausau is that the local paper used to make no bones about embarrasing the hell out of of people with the printed police log...

Maybe when you find the guy, you can string him up to the rope tow over on Rib Mountain...after all, it IS the season and they ought to be getting everything in good shape for skiers.
