There is a huge thread on Facebook fountain owners, ripped someone else off. Its amazing how many people said he has taken them for money and never sent the parts.

Strange thing is people were calling him a **** head and saying how much he ripped them off of and he was liking the post!

I’m just shocked of a few things. First, that anyone would do business like this. Why? There is no need. Do what you say you will do. I’ve had small things happen right after I’ve sold things (battery not coming back on a charger is one), I’ve still offered the buyer money towards a repair. Karma is real. It’s sad that no one has been able to help it catch this guy. I can’t imagine googling my name and finding much, let alone thing after thing of myself screwing people. Guy must be tired, there is no way he gets a good nights sleep.

It sounds more like he is more than comfortable with the end result being (albeit it up until now) called names online and having an ongoing number of unsuspecting people just keep sending $$$ for parts that they will never see.

In his world crime is paying quite well.

What blows my mind is how has he not been sent up for FRAUD as his actions are more than evident over an above just theft against an individual ....

His name is probably not Steve Debo - I'd guess a made up name. It's bull$hit, that's for sure.

They have even posted the google image of his house and you can see one of the boats he was selling parts of off in it, along with his DL..

He must be a real bada$$ then. If a select few of my friends would have been taken by him, they would have already been to his house and had a talk. lol

I hope that guy gets corona virus and syhpilis at the same time. I sell a lot of parts (not in marine world but in the car/truck world) and I super troll people and search them before making dealings. Most of the time they just go ghost.

I dodged a bullet, was thinking of buying this from him but got a uneasy felling when he first said 98 hours, sent me a screen shot of the scans. Latter he posted the boat for sell with another screen shot and it shows close to 200 hours,,,,,,,,,,,,,,https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...fdcdeed6a.jpeg

I thought some of you guys that got taken by this guy were going to ban together and go after him.

Someone posted a link to a court case/traffic case with Steve Debo with an address. When you google the address it showed hot tubs for sale and offshore boats in the yard.

Should have left the old thread up guys....

I posted his whole families court history, email and legal contact info, and even google street view of his house. Then someone made a rude comment and he cried foul threatened legal action.. Yeah that's our dirt bag.. Same one who called my business 800# at all hours for six months straight from a spoofed number. Also have the PM he sent saying "he wasn't finished with me yet" for ousting him.

He's a pro guys. Good at it, and some how still breathing....

The old thread was only deleted because the original poster requested it be deleted.
The thread is still in the archives but not viewable by members.

Thanks Griff, And it was rightly his decision to make..
But just maybe, a screenshot of that one post surfaced, it certainly wouldn't be harmful to mankind. Lots of other traffic out there on him lately, same M.O. Which bounced me back here.. :picard1:

I’m still out the $6,750 this THIEF stole from me!!!!!

ICDEDPPL 10-16-2020 04:47 PM

There`s a guy who got me for $1000 , he had to get a restraining order on me (I avoided the sheriff till it expired so fu ck him) but for $7k there`s no way his knee caps would still be in one piece.Start with few bullet holes thru those $10k hot tubs..

Wouldn't it have been easier just to pay you? Dooche had to take the dirtbag way. Did he ever pay you?

Wildman_grafix 10-17-2020 09:32 AM

I had a buddy get taken on FB for under a $1000, found another person that did so he called the local police.

long story short, together it was enough for a felony so after a few visits by the sheriff they got the money back.

I can not understand with as much money as this douche bag has taken why no one has prosecuted him.

I sure got lucky when I decided NOT to buy the boat he had for sale.

When you look at the pic of the address listed in the court papers, scroll around the hot tubs for sale and there is an offshore boat under the tarp to the left.

Looks like quite the home and business he's got there :-) , i'm guessing he's doing better scamming people then at his day job ..
