Where's Jake?

[HiImBrian]

Well I'm up at school in fargo and while I'd love to go down, I'm not about to miss class for it. I'd love somebody to pic up my injectors for me though if he has them or something.

Kind of hard for someone that lives here to do. We know about as much as you guys do. I'm trying to ask a few people that know him, but so far no luck.

I wouldn't discuss any type of day for coming down though...guests can still view the topic. ;)

You could drive by the shop and see if you can see anything. I think that is all they are asking for.

I just drove past his shop tonight and saw nothing, but Mr. Boxxy's black 2ga eclipse outside. It was in a different spot than I last seen it, however. Everything I could see inside it looked fine. Gauges on the a pillar were in, Full interior was there. Front end was sitting high, no engine in it. Exhaust was fully intact. Outside looked fine from what I could see. Knocked on the door and no body was there, it was dead silent. Couldn't see anything in from the back window either.

That's about all I could see for ya guys, sorry. I'll be driving around in that area more often pretty soon, due to cutting hours at work, so I'll say anything if I see anything.

I am sure that will relieve Boxxy some knowing that his car is still in good shape. Thanks for the recon!

well, after about 10 calls to paypal, they finally gave in, they are investigating the account. Anyone who paid jake using paypal, especially if you paid his girlfriends account because "paypal was being screwy and not letting his account work" give them a call and make SURE they investigate your claim. The more claims there are, the more likely we are to get our money back. I still made the mistake of sending him a wire transfer, so even if I do get my money back, Im still in this for the full shabang shabang, so he won't hear the last of me. Please if you used paypal file a claim ASAP. also pm me or post it here

ok now I'm pissed. He told me he didn't have a paypal account! So I've always been mailing him checks. For my injectors which were $275 I paypaled tpux $100 for his manifold which he sent to jake and then I sent a $175 check to Jake in the mail. Wow I'm pissed

I got screwed out of 350 for a magnus. Luckly my mom works at the credit union and tried to stop payment on the check. That didnt work so somehow she got my money back through the guys bank. So I got my money back. I think she might have done an ISF(insufficient funds) and thats what got my money back.

I cant believe this is happening again.

Anyone with money involved needs to get involved with their local PD and the Winona PD before the shop is cleared out and everything is gone. Or do like others have mentioned and make a trip down there and demand an outcome.

I still cant believe there is over $26k missing in this ordeal with people that have only posted in here. Makes sense how these tube cars were being funded.

No one has called the police?
