This may be a repost, if it is then feel free to delete.

Not 335i specific but definitely worth the read if you buy online..

Well i suck then, how did I never hear about it? I think it's great lit for anyone buying online..

here is a little from towards the end.. he even scammed on e90

"Good news! Just got an email from Google Checkout telling me that a full refund is being issued! The refund can take up to three business days to appear on my Amex account. I am not certain whether google checkout forced the refund through or whether the scammer issued the refund as I have contacted both parties today with the help of Timeless.

I am very happy. I thank you all for your efforts! I will let you know when the refund officially appears on my account.

Order Details - May 11, 2008 10:44 PM PDT
Google Order #4385.....
BMW OEM 335i 189 Style Wheels/Tires $1,250.00
Tax (CA) : $0.00
Total : $1,250.00
May 28 Refund : -$1,250.00

It doesn't matter how insignificant whatever the information you post ........ anytime, anywhere ....... your "DNA" will give you away at some point.

Everything & anything can be found about anyone if you are clever & patient enough.

If I remember right there were multiple fraud charges brought against this guy. He was eventually arrested, but the story just kinda disappeared from there .........

I read the last few pages of the thread and apparently nothing happened to the guy!? They knew where he lives, where he works, where he went to school, what he drives.. Those guys have more self control than I and I give them props for that. There is no way I would be able to walk away without some major type of confrontation.

I do know that everything was dealt with thru local authorities.

Having said that, you have no idea how many times I have wanted revenge against or "to get even" with someone. The thought of getting caught (and the rotten luck that follows me around) is enough of a deterrent to let it go. I had an ex-girlfriend siphon nearly 30K from me a few years back .......... believe me, I was tempted to take things past the law.

She's still on parole.
