Sorry to hear that you may have been scammed but did you guys check his trade rating before you parted your cash? He has the worst trade rating I've seen on Ozhonda.

19-08-2009, 10:49 AM
I read his Trade Rating after I purchased. There was one really bad remark and the rest seemed to be ok. I can't believe he is still allowed to be a member.

Man,

I just got my car like 2 months ago, 2006 lux with the sat nav.

Only put the K&N air filter and chrome door sills so far.

Looking at putting the Euro Sports Front bar on shortly. And I guess a set of Aftermarket wheels now that Junyu did not send my wheels. Do you know anyone who still sells Advanti Blades 18". They are my favourite so far.

tenji`
19-08-2009, 11:20 AM
hey mate i sell advanti wheels here in melbourne let me know what your after.


ive also only just gotten a euro and been more active on this forum as i havent owned a honda prior to that for atleast 5-6 years... he had some bad ratings but there were some good ratings so i didnt think a fellow member would try rip off another member.

if its happened that often i am wondering why mods still allow him to be trading on the forums? On evo oz if this member had been on there he would have been banned a long time ago.

I had a buyer for the Wheels on my car, and now he is going to be pretty disapointed.

I will probably have my car sitting on blocks when I get home. hahaha.

Why isn't Aarong doing anything about it? He is a moderator right?

Just looked at my bank account and it seems Junyu has taken $80 out of my Pay Pal for freight. I will contact Pay Pal and have to get that back....

Why are you guys buying items from someone who has not posted in the forums since March 2009? If he is PM'ing you from your WTB threads, then he would be dodgy as well seeing that he doesn't post. Plus, any negative trade rating is not good. My opinion is everything should be positive.

This f*cker has scammed me too - less than $50, but it's the principle. I'll be contacting the others who have been scammed so I can support them in their case to the police/other.

I started a thread looking to by Euro Sport rims. I was PM'd by JunYu, then later on by ummmz. I knocked both back because I was in NSW and they were in VIC. I didn't realise they were the same person until now.

If I could get face to face with him I'd do more than ask for my money back. Actually when you think about it, Jetstar fares make a visit to VIC very affordable.

I believe there is actually a few..

his for sale thread showed alot of scammed members too, I think 3+ at the last count.

I know you and Darren got screwed but there was more.

Agreed.


Why are you guys buying items from someone who has not posted in the forums since March 2009?

There are a multiple of reasons WHY a member wouldn't have posted in months, family issues, work, lack of a Honda (etc)

I don't blame these guys for buying from a person who hasn't posted in ages (though I'm always sure to check there trader rating first)

I do have one question though, is there a system in place for REPEAT offenders like Junyu.

Considering what he's done only a matter of weeks ago, I thought he would have been I.P Banned

YES there is a system in place like I have said many times before. This did come up previously as yourfather brought it up and that's why the system is in place.

The biggest problem is that nobody bothers to read the announcements (until they are explicitly pointed to them) and email me. ie here (http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/announcement.php?f=104&a=4).

Any violence that people want to undertake cannot be associated with Ozhonda and you can't use the forums to organise it. So you will have to organise it through other methods.

You'll find that most popular forums don't condone violence, theft, piracy or any illegal activities for that matter as they don't want to be shut down or fined for promoting said activities. If you wanna talk about that shit keep it to pm.

The thing is he doesn't have the item, he keeps "selling" the same items to other members and then ignoring all pm's/calls etc.

What you need is his house number and to talk to his mum, then she'll tell you he doesn't have the item and you can go collect your money off her after you call like 100 times.

I would call him a genuinely dodgy person.

There was another thread about him in the lounge which got closed down. I hope the big case building is going to come down like a tonne of bricks on him. Be funny if its just like in Fast Furious one, big bust during dinner time and gets slapped by dad "you bring disrespect to our family".

I wonder how much his total proceeds from his scamming are. Should do a private dollar count. Pm me how much you lost and ill get a running total.

I was PM'ed by ummmz on numerous occasions after advertising a wanted ad for euro sport wheels. we worked out a price and he sent me pictures. was going to do local pickup with him at his "location" @ "southbank" in the city. i decided to pull out of the deal due to change in mind and he continued to PM offering a cheaper price, he seemed genuine and legit but I didn't end up buying them. reading this thread has been very interesting. glad to know who ummmz really is now...definitely won't be buying anything.

If he has ripped you off YOU need to go to the police and make an official complaint.I have already done this and was told by them the more official complaints against him the easier the chances of a conviction and the longer the custodial sentence and no one else getting ripped off, as for threatening people with violence I agree with wynode this thread is not the place for that as we need this running for other members to stay informed and maybe supply information in regards to the mongerel.

No one is threatening any one. All we require is our money back or the promised goods. The "Law" will catch up with the offender yet that doesn't put the money back in to our accounts. I received $1.94 back from PAYPAL (with more to follow) as this is all the money that was in the offenders account, please don't tell me you think this is fair?

will probably be the same kit he ripped me off on...and still owes me.

if it was that easy i would have already had my money back...

Ive done everything llegally so far doesnt seem like anything is being done.

Then you wonder why some ppl take matters into their own hands.

Please PM me his details so I can pass it on to the police. Do not post it here.

Guys

I am going to have to agree with Tenji and Darkii on this one!! I got me wheels from the accused and lets just say I did not ask politely. When it comes down to actually "taking action", I have to admit that the Police are the last ones you want to get involved. He will get a fine and a slap on the wrist, maybe even community service. But that will not put the money back in to your accounts!! What is the world coming too when vigilante justice rules.

im not sure if its been asked in the past, but is it possible we can have a thread about scammers ?

ie: who to look out for ? i know the trade rating is there, but it doesnt give the fine details of the transaction if someone got scammed

oh, i thought the thread was about the one user junyu/ummmz..
perhaps have a dedicated sticky in the FS section with a list of scammers and who to look out for. those that dont respond to the allegations can be added to the list lol

ive seen it on honda-tech. not sure if it'll work here

Yeah this particular thread is about junyu/ummmz. Problem with having a dedicated thread regarding scammers is that people start posting in there for the slightest bad trading experiance. Before the iTrader system we tried something like this (dedicated thread for trader experiences) and well...let's just say it didn't last very long due to some of the posts made and complaints from other users!

I haven't heard anything back from the police recently but update this thread if / when I do. Please PM me if anyone has more information.

Got home this afternoon and surprise, surprise their was a cheque in the mail from the Victorian department of Justice refunding me my money from W.Yue A.K.A ummmz. Last I had heard from the Vic police was that he owned up to it but my chances of getting my money back was nil,which was fine as I was just happy to know the long arm of the law had him facing court for it and hopefully a criminal record.

Hi Guys
Found you after digging up information on William Yue.

I paid for some wheels that never came until i lodged a police report with SA Police. I then got sent the rims but no tyres as promised. Its been months and im still chasing this idiot.
Please be warned - WILLIAM YUE is a liar and a thief , do not buy anything from this person.

He has currently scammed people on OZRenaultSport, OzHonda, Firesport, Toymods, FordForums, FordXR5turbo.com and others.
His usernames are WillYu Willaim Yue and others mentioned here. He drives an orange XR5 Turbo and lives in Attwood Victoria. I wont post the address or home phone number here as per forums rules.
I am going to chase it up with Vic Police - If any others that have been scammed want to contact me, please PM me and we can go from there.

Thanks
Dan

If you already know the address, then can I suggest that you compile a list of victims, amounts and forward it to the local police department. if im not wrong, the amount has to add to $10k+ to be worth the officer's time to investigate.

A few years back, I was taken $530, and that was the information relayed to me.

Another option would be to file a minor case claim in your state, and get a process server to act on it. This is what I did and the fella paid up quick smart.

SA and Vic police updated. The case is growing.
Id urge anyone who has a problem with William to do the same.

You wouldn't really recognise him looking at that photo, at least the way he was dressed when I sold something to him recently. Shorter hair, and bulked up, tatts. The dude is still actively trading on firesport and even using the same usernames and doesnt even use an alias name to cover his real name.

Only safe way to buy from private individuals site unseen is Ebay via paypal . Just plat it smart.
