I recently got scammed by this Cory Fellows under a fake name "Parker" for an intercooler setup. $500 down the hole on this one. Beware of him, I was apparently not his first victim. I am currently in the process of reclaiming my money from this low life.

here's the thread: https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=609486

 

Lets start off with his photobucket account where he posted the pictures- the account is blocked, BUT we can at least find his account name- drifterbybirth, google it, and you find his myspace-

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...iendid=9002408

His name is Thomas Krussell from Portland, Oregon

He used to post under another name, and used the same photobucket account, bad idea.

Big time scammer, but the odd thing is that the names don't match up.

One thing on his myspace, he lost his little brother, Timothy William Krussell, after googling it, I found a guestbook where his friends/family sign, and his mother seems to post frequently, and she has contact info- http://www.legacy.com/GB/GuestbookVi...rsonId=3380295
You can atleast e-mail her and try to get that guys info.

 

Yes, Cory Fellows is a very bad boy. We have a complaint out against him for ripping us off with a $950 bad check well over a year ago. Ground Zero also got ripped off. Corksport (in Vancouver, WA) got their money back and the Washington police dropped the charges, even though I believe they knew there was an investigation pending in Oregon. The Oregon police do not appear to be doing anything, as far as I can tell, but you never know. We will take this information and pass it along, in case they feel like investigating further.

 

what a piece of work!

 

I'd love to deliver justice myself, but as the law works, I must hold myself back.

 

Correction to my earlier post: according the the Vancouver DA, they did not drop the charges. Corksport dropped the complaint after Cory paid them off for what he owed them. If there are any other Washington State residents who got scammed, please call the Vancouver District Attorney's office and speak to prosecutor Jeff McCarty (not sure on the spelling). They are willing to go after him again.

 

DAMN!! this dude is a big time scammer! I almost bought that T67 turbo from the second post and the arc IC from on that first post. At least we can bug the **** outta him on myspace..

 

I'm not a Washington state resident, so would my call still qualify?


Anyone have any info on that white fc in his myspace? Does he still own it? What model is it? He told me he sold it and it's a converted 86 base.

 

Yes. He is a resident there and hes committing a crime in there jurisdiction.

 

Call both your own DA and the DA in Vancouver, WA. Your DA is probably the one to file charges with, but the Washington DA should be made aware of another vicitm, even if he can't directly do anything for you. Being across state lines may make it Federal, but only the DA can tell you for sure. The top priority should be making all relavent District Attorney's aware of the scope of the crimes this individual is perpetrating. The bigger the criminal, the higher the priority. Cory is not that smart. He has only gotten away with things thus-far by appearing too minor a criminal. Once the DAs start sharing info, they will quickly see a pattern and act. Rob was dealing with this, so I don't have the Portland DA's name or number handy, but I will try to remember to post it as soon as I find out.

 

He dares rip off Pineapple and Corksport, for those reasons, I really want him stopped. Why would anyone try to rip off fellow rotorheads?

 

Hey look! Cory doesn't know how to have a password on his RX-7 club page! Thank you mac for sending me this link. Ok his name is Cory Fellows or McKenna. I was dating (being scammed) by him at the time of the inntercooler thing. He 100% screwed over mac.... took his money and never sent him anything. Cory told him he sent it. Cory got me to use my paypay account... never sent the goods... leaving me to clean up his problem. He also wrote me a bad check therefore screwing me out of another $500 as well as stole my brand new cannon elph SD 630. All this happened in about one month. What kind of a psycho steals from the girl their dating? One like Cory Fellows. I quit speaking to him around mid to end of January. Since then he has not gone back to the house he was staying or returned any messages... until tonight. I confronted him about the car part he didn't send and he told me to f myself and it was my problem. He also owes anyone that used to call him a friend money. I could go on and on. Nobody knows where he is, or where he's staying. I just wanted everyone to know that this guy is a problem and he'll keep on doing it. I'm doing what I can. But the last thing I need are slashed tires and a destroyed house. his myspace com/drifterbybirth. If anyone has any questions mine is /karabeach

 

^Thanks, Kara.

 

Look at his myspace profile, he looks like a ******* tweaker to me. Id be willing to bet that most of the money he steals from people goes straight to dope, I know people exactly like him. It is only a matter of time before this ****** is dead or in jail.

 

What a douche. This afternoon is going to be filled with buggin the **** outa him on myspace. ****** *******. I almost "bought" that intercooler setup too. Glad i didnt have the money at the time.

 

UPDATE!

Kara and her friends are going to try to catch him for intentionally writing bad checks. I'm ready to write a testimony, and provide information. If you have ever been scammed by this man, call your District Attorney as well as the DA in Vancouver. Thanks.

 

I posted this on the other thread, but if anyone has been scammed by Cory online what you need to do is go to www.FBI.gov When it's on the internet it becomes a federal offense. On that website there is a thing under contact us that says report internet crime. You give them all the information and they open a case. If there is any information you need to file this feel free to contact me at beachgirl684@hotmail.com I don't think any local police can do anything if it was fraud over the internet but the FBI can. Thanks Kara

 

The FBI (actually ic3s, I believe) will be a total waste of your time. The dollar amount isn't even close to being enough for the FBI to worry about. The best bet is the local police. Get as many of the people he ripped off together as possible and go to the local police with EVERYONES evidence AT ONE TIME. The more you can show a pattern of scamming the better off you are. If he's writting a lot of bad checks that will also make the local police more apt to go after him. You can almost guarantee that if he is writing bad checks and some one has turned him in for it and he hasn't paid it then they will issue a warrant for his arrest. If he has a warrant out on him and you "kindly let the police know where he is" then you can almost bet that they will go ahead and pick him up.
As I said the FBI will get you nowhere. Go to the local police.

 

Just so everybody knows... Cory Fellows is currently behind bars. He was arrested this morning and his car was towed. So he's going to be in jail for the next few days but so far he's not in much trouble. Mostly they are getting him for violating his probabtion. But if they find stuff in his car then he's really screwed. I'm still working on getting him for the other stuff. Kara

 

Jesus, this guy is full of problems!

 

any news on what happened with Cory?? he freaking owes me mad money

 

uh oh..

 

Bull ****.

I was scammed for $250. I reported the case to the website, 3 months later I got paper work and a case. After a month, I had a check and a signed note from the fellow who scammed me with instructions to fax recieved payment to the case number. The FBI will **** with your taxes, SS, welfare, Unemployment, and everything else if you do not pay. You get locked out.
I know dozens of people that have filed and gotten their cash back by taking the TIME and Patience!

 

I just got my money back recently.

Call the Oregon District Attorney, Jeff Darling. (503) 947-4333

good luck

 

I am glad that it worked out for you. The problem is that it does not for most people. There are dozens of people on this very forum that have filed with ic3s and have never even gotten so much as an email back. Although I am happy that it worked for you the simple fact of the matter is that the FBI has MANY more important things to worry about other than relatively small time theft. Hence the local authorities are a much more reasonable avenue for most people to go thru and actully have something result from it. Therefore, my previous statement is not "bullshit".
