Does anyone know a Kevin Cader in Godfrey Illinois??? I bought a airboat from him a month ago, sent a money order and I havn't heard from him. As I said in my title post, "Sorry to post this" But getting ripped off is getting me mad. I thought I would go to the boat forum and see if anyone knows him or might be able to help me.

Thanks Guys

sorry, i can't help you. maybe someone else can. that sucks to get ripped off, i hope it works out for you. good luck

Maybe you n BIG hoss should take a ride over to Godfrey,and try to persuade this jerk into giving up the goods....[>:],if not viable,and you used a postal money order,contact your local postal inspectors,and the local law enforcement of Godfrey,Illinois to do a follow up......[:-]

I used a bank money order,,,, he waited 3 working days to see if the check was good. ( It was) Thats the last I heard. I called the police in Alton Illinois. The cop said he was very sorry that there was nothing he personally could do. I lost only $125 . BUT......... I got ripped off. I was hoping that someone on RCU lived near him and could perhaps help me with this issue. THIS DOES SUCK.......



Thanks Guys

He's been suspended from the market area.I sent you an email with his address and phone number.

So police in IL don't investigate theft anymore? Amazing.

Call the DA of that county and see what their feelings on internet thieves are.

Ya know Hpiguy,,,,,,,
The DA would be a good suggestion. GOOD THINKING Thank you


Hoss

There are members of RCU in the St Louis area.Not very far from Godfrey.Maybe someone will assist you if you contact some of them.Maybe if he gets enough pressure on him he'll deal with you. Do a search by city,St Louis ,Missouri

Tidnab,,,,
Another good suggestion. I will look up members in that area to see if they might pay Kevin a visit. As I am replying to this, my local police dept are on their way here to fill out a report. Hopefully that will get thing rolling too. As I dig a little deeper, Kevin Cader ripped off another fellow RCU member of a P51 mustang. If at all interested,,,look up Kev05Bravo. He was suspended


thanks again you guys
Hoss

Since my last reply,
I just filled out a report with the local police. This is theft. The police dept will contact him by phone and I gave him a week for delivery. If I do not receive the package, Our police will contact the police in Godfrey Illinois and they will charge him with theft. Mabe,,,,just mabe I might get satisfaction.

Hoss

Was the transaction through the RCU market place. By all means contact the market place moderator (or let me know). There may be something RCU can assist with.

Let me know
Matt

I hope this help's.

Another Note: Go to your local police dept. and file a complaint. I belive over a certain amount qualfy's for Internet fruad.

The normal thing to do here if it was purchased through the RCU Marketplace is to contact John (JWN) but there still isn't much that he can do besides suspend his account here.
The only reason why this thread is staying here for now is more for informational reasons as noramlly these are supposed to be tossed.
If the deal wasn't done on this site we can't do a thing for you even if the person is a member here. If you ever see a deal that looks too good to be true, report it right away. We've had more than our share of scammers on this site with tricks such as the "I'll send you a big fat check, cash it for me and keep part of it for your trouble plus I'll arrange for pick-up" type of scams while they tap out your checking and savings accounts. I'm also leery of anyone who isn't an active member in these forums as this person probably isn't.
It sure doesn't hurt to ask in here about a deal before sending someone your hard-earned cash.

Heh-Heh-Heh,this guy is TOAST, It just goes to show,and serve as a forewarning to others, that WE here at RCU, WILL NOT TOLERATE this B.S. and that WE will find you.....[>:]

well, i called the phone # provided. and what do you think i got, a disconnected message. so the phone # is no good. hopefully some of the other leads will pay off for you. good luck with it

FYI:

I had this happen to me on here a couple of years ago. I sold a R/C truck to a guy in Milwaukee Wisconsin and being very trusting, I sent him the truck the day he said he sent me the money. Well, long story short, he got the truck and I got nothing. I was able to keep in contact via phone and e-mail (surprising,huh?) however, when I would call it was his father that would answer the phone. I went round and round with this clown and finally had had enough. I went down to the local fuzz and explained to them my dilema. The investigator called the person and I don't know exactly what the cop told this clown but the rip off artist sent me the money by Fed Ex, delivered the same day it was sent!

So, to make a long story short, don't get frustrated call the cops. They have access to phone numbers and identification (licenses and who knows what else) that we do not.

I have his cell # 618-795-9802. He shuts the phone off though. As I said before, I contacted our local police. They were going to contact him. If there is no response from Kevin Cader,,,, The police in Godfrey Illinois will handle this issue. This is now fraud and being done over the internet makes it a federal case. This will be getting interesting.

A week ago Monday I called my local police. The cop that took the complaint called Kevin Cader from his cell phone. The Officer gave Kevin 1 week to ship the Package. Well..........UPS showed up at my house yesterday (Monday)with 2 packages. I opened them both in front of the UPS driver. Both packages were in very good shape and no damages. So, "I am happy" Thank you guys for your interest in this matter. I been dealing over the internet for years with great success. This time it scared me.

Thanks again Guys
Hoss
