Default ******update From Years Ago********

For those of you that have been around for a while may remember when I first joined I was scammed for $2k from a kid in San Antonio for some wheels he never sent me. (here is the thread for anyone who wants to read it lol)
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/the-clubhouse/88150-anyone-know-93aristo.html

Welp I never received a dime back and the kid had disappeared from the authroites in texas. I chalked it up as a bad hit and continued on with my life lol.

Yup you guessed it, today 3 years later I opened my mailbox to find a check for $500 from the commonwealth of Texas. I AM SOOOOOO PSYCHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE A DIME OF THIS MONEY!!!!!!11.

It says there is still a balance of $1500 which means I will hopefully get all my money back.

I will enver forget the day I met D, remember you told me karma was a b*&^. Well karma is making this peice of crap pay me back after 3 years.

Default Good deal!

Jeff, now that you got some of your money back, can I borrow $500.00 and pay you back in a few years? Lol! Great recovery on the funds!
