"Mom, I'm borrowing your financed Celica...

Gonna bring it to a shop to get fixed up, you know, painted and done-up and not pay for the work!"



I came across this from another forum that I frequent on.
Coles notes:
20 year old kid takes mother's financed 1994 Celica to a tuner shop to get fixed up.
Shop does the work, makes the Celica look like a show car.
Kid doesn't want to pay.
Girlfriend gives a $60 downpayment and asked if the $16K worth of work can be made in instalments...

Ahhh, I'll let you guys read the rest :

A website made for the scammer:
http://joedono.info/

Be wary...he might be coming your way! lol

16 grand into an automatic celica sounds like a good idea to me.

Yeah, I should've warned that it will be a long read, but well worth it...he apparantly scammed a whole bunch of other things too (like cell phones, paintball guns, laptops), and this kid is only 20 yrs old.
Got busted for stealing other people's photos too:

Here's a pic of the finished product:


Someone try Googling his name.

I dont blame the kid.. If you're dumb enough to spend 16 grand of your own money on a car without even getting a deposit then you deserve not getting paid at the end lol.
