FAKE Uprev Protuner alert

Just saw this on Uprev's facebook, thought I'd share.

Just FYI Uprev "Prorace" software.. does not exist. This guy is a scammer if I've ever seen one. Please share.

Apparently he's been scamming a lot of people.. Please spread the word if you can lets shut this down. Guys like this give legitimate tuners a bad name...

Sent a message to my cousin in California to help get the word out. Seems like he has been doing this for years and also has been to prison for credit card fraud and various cracking into federal computers.

Do we know what city he's in? I'm in San Diego and I'll post CL ads in all the surrounding areas. I'd like to know where he is specifically tho so I can start from ground zero.

Lol sure do even have an address for him from one of his fb pages if it is even legit. He is in your city. Let me see if I can get it for you.

5225 Ruffin Rd, San Diego, CA
(619) 467-5446

The address might be fake or the google maps image has not been updated. No shop near there except a lot of construction and various other businesses.
FB pages
I also found a lot of scattered bs he has posted all over the place.

It looks like he has been ripping people off for at least 10 years and probably his whole life. Back in 2007 he was selling other peoples tunes as his own. Looks like chip packages. Saw quite a few topics where peoples cars actually had to be rebuilt because of it.

I did see a tumbler account and other various ones. If I can find the tumbler I will see if I can find it again, it has pictures of him doing dyno's ect and other work in various shops. Some may look familar to you since you live in the area.

**Edit***

It was instagram https://www.instagram.com/nosajton/

Man, my grandma lives off ruffin Rd. Hahaha well a street off ruffin. I'll go check his address personally.

Go to the FB page "SDG&Z". You may be able to find him there. I know there's a tuner guy who frequents the page, but not sure if it's him.
