  If anybody is reading this scam report then they should read the whole report because it will save you money, time and a lot of anguish and grief. You reading this becaude either 1) you talked to this con artist within the last 24 hours and you are checking reviews (or) 2) You talked to this (supposed to be) transmission repairman and had the car towed to his shop and are now getting a rediculously high price repair bill ( much more than you were promised on the 1st call ) or 3) you paid a lot more than you imagined and are very upset and is looking for closure. Here is how the scam works. This con man James runs a low priced ad for transmission rebuilds. This is the bait. Mr transmission conman then uses a potential victims desperation to have his/her car towed to a repair shop ( which he does not own / or work their ) with the promise of a good outcome. The shop gives it to him for a discounted price ; WHY ?? , they need the business ? It could be a bunch of reasons , and you will pay alot more than his price. BUT the part that is disturbing is that he tells you it's a standard rebuild , LIAR ,when many times it is a used transmission. This happens most of the time. The shop is not on the hook for this lie, you aren't there customer you are the conmans customer. It is much cheaper to do a used transmission swap as opposed to a bebuild. AND you are paying a lot more money as well. This scam has been going on since at least 2013. I've seen compaints going back this far. The domain name is changed quite often to throw people as myself off his trail. BUT he ripped off the wrong guy and I am going to make sure the public is aware of his dishonesty and bad reputation. He has many complaints on the internet. Way to many to list. Search hard and you will find them. He suppossedly lives in Bayport Long Island. A mechanic at one of the shops he uses says the ripoff kingpin is a opiod pill popper as well as a drunk. I never did actually see him but what comes to mind is a bald , pudgy , doughy slob with many bad habits and no friends. He never tries to dispute these compaints and accusations and that points to his guilt. I am putting together a list of shops that I will post on another report. BEWARE this guy will cheat you out of your hard earned money in a heartbeat. !!!!! It is terrible as to he will take advantage of elderly persons , women struggling to keep their families together and to unware hard working people that just need a repair (an expensive one) done for their car and to get back to work to support their families.
