Warning: Avoid scammer Eric Yun

Gentlemen,

I am warning you about a scammer named Eric Yun/Soung Yun/G35Driver & My350Z username zDi[R]tY3. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH HIM.

Eric was a friend of mine and on a show team I was on, so I trusted him with $2700 of my hard earned money (keep in mind, I am a full time college student) for a set of Crystal Silver Work S1 3 piece Meister wheels [19x10 front//19x11 rear//+5 all around].

Eric told me that the wheels would take 6 months to arrive, so as a friend, I trusted him and waited for the wheels. After 6 months passed, the wheels were nowhere to be found and Eric gave me excuse after excuse until finally he stopped answering my texts and calls.

This past December, Eric called me from a blocked number and threatened my life if I told anyone what happened. As a result, I have posted this thread up to warn other people of this as it is unfair for such a con artist unknown by the public to walk the earth.

I have exhaust almost every method of regaining my lost money, but all my efforts were unfruitful.

He also cheated a friend of mine, Ryan/G35Driver username ciabatta_burger out of his money as well. There are other people who Eric has cheated, but he has threatened them into keeping quiet (which is also the reason why they told me to not mention their names).

I have included pictures of Eric as well as the 350Z he used to drive and the M45 he may drive now. Avoid this man at ALL COSTS. He is a cheat and a compulsive liar.

This is Eric:


350Z that Eric used to drive:


M45 that Eric may drive now:


I ask that you please do your best to warn other people of this scammer, especially on other car forums.

Agreed. If he's bold enough to threaten your life and others then call the police and have him be dealt with. People like him get handled either by the streets or the law. His better option is the law.

Sorry to hear about your ordeal.

And I agree, nobody has the right to threaten anybody. Law enforcement should get involved.

That really sucks Kevin. Sorry to hear this happened to you. Thanks for posting this and warning others.

I remember seeing his car at the Reno show a few years back (the Z).

Hope there is a way for you to get your money back some how.

Bump

I'm glad you decided to post this man. What that POS pulled is horsesh!t, and he deserves to get beaten to a pulp. Seriously, who steals money from a college student and supposed friend?
