Wire from BS update.
 

I received a call from BS this morning at 9am. He said he was at a bank with $7500 in hand. He said the lady said if he did the wire it could take from 24 hours to 7 days to clear in my account. He asked if I wanted the wire or cashiers check overnighted. I told him to get the cashiers check and Fedex it. My secretary received a fax from Pak Mail Burlington with a copy of the cashiers check, the customer receipt and the fedex tracking info. I tracked the package and I will have it tomorrow by 10:30. It all looks good to me. I will post the final update tomorrow. Thank you again to all who helped me in this situation.

What's this all about? :confused: :confused: :confused:

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Don't ask, rabble rouser. :eek:

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Great news! It would appear that things are looking up.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

If it's drawn on a Canadian Bank, it will still take a few days to clear. When I've gotten canadian money orders, my bank charged me $17 to deposit.

Glad to hear the good news

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Glad to hear this. Lets hope BS just leaves this place. :D

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Hi,
At this point, I think I can deal with a $17 charge. I will call the bank to varify the check when it's in my hands.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

I'm suprised to hear he's sending the $ back. Your very lucky!!!!

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

excellent news

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

I know.....just glad to hear good news for you! :p

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

you posted that you were getting money to fix your boat but who's BS

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

??
My boat has nothing to do with this. This is a past situation that has come to an end.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Not to be a pessimist or anything, but a cashiers check can have a stop pay put on it like any other check. I wouldn't treat it as money in hand until your bank confirms that it has cleared his bank.

Good luck

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

For some reason this all sounds familiar to me.

As long as B.S really had the funds to present to the bank then any funds he transferred via wire x-fer should be available to you in the matter of a few hours. I do wire transfers from my brokerage account all the time. As soon as they hit my bank they are good. If done in the morning they clear that same afternoon. If done in the afternoon then they usually clear the next morning. Speed is the appeal of a Wire Transfer. It cost more but it's fast and pretty much irrevocable once it hits your account.

An international cashier's check on the other hand will likely take 10 to 15 days to wind its way through the American and Canadian banking systems. All a cashier's check proves is that the person writing the check actually presented sufficient funds to have the check issued. Even though it is a cashier's check at any time prior to it clearing their bank they can cancel it and get their money back.

I hope he is sincere and that the check turns out to be good. Mine situation turned out well but it sure wasn't fun waiting the two weeks to find out.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

When I use a wire transfer to buy tile from California, it's there, and available in about 30 minutes.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Yep.....that's a hoot......up to 7 days. LOL!!! I hope you didn't get phucked again! :( :( :(

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

great news....sounds like this might be his first step toward helping himself.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Hope you get your cash LubeJobs. Hopefully B.S. came to his senses. :rolleyes:

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Got a bad feeling about this. Wire transfers are almost instantaneous,but maybe Canadian banks are different. Cross your fingers.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Keep us posted on FS (formerly BS).

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Gino, before you put the Cashiers check in you account, call the Bank and ask them if it is a good check. They will want the check number and they can tell you if it is good immediately. Don't waste your time depositing the check if it is no good. Sounds like it's a bogus cashiers check.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

I appreciate all the advice. I probably should have taken the wire but the up to 7 days scared me. I will do what I can to get it checked. I was suprised to hear him on the phone. I actually called me 3 times updating me on every step. I would hope he isn't foolish enought to add a conterfeiting charge to the list. At this point all I can do is hope. I will keep everyone updated.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Make sure the cashier's check isn't a forgery....lot of that going on right now.

Get the issuing bank's phone # from directory assistance, don't trust any # on the check, call the bank and verify it is indeed from that bank.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

What happened here the last few days? Another Canadian moose stold the drive incident? What happened to Too Old? What happened between Phil and Lube Jobs? I missed everything...........................Somebody PM me.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Glad to see things r going well in getting your money back..

The short version. Lubejobs sends the supposed Ex-NFL player and new OSO celeb Big Scotty a check for a pair of 500 efi's. When they never arrive some they do some digging and find that the only NFL experience Big Scotty has is with the National Forgery League. He's a scam artist, not married, and everything he's said on OSO is a lie, including the tragic news of his wife being involved in a bad accident.

In the midst of this Lubejobs goes to Key West and while participating in the Key West Poker run his boat is rammed into by an enraged Phil Lip****z of Cigarette Fame. For some reason OSO doesn't like people discussing the incident and they poof about any thread that talks about the incident.

Film at 11.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Sounds good so far. BS must have read about the OSO bat!! :eek: That's reason enough to pay up. :D Good luck...hope it works out.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

I have seen the aerial footage and I believe the cause is STILL open for discussion.

I'm not sure who hit who, but LubeJobs did a LONG slide and was lucky(talented?) enough to keep from rolling over....

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

The bad thing about the deleted B.S. thread is that the people that don't come here that often will not know what happened or who he really is :( and will be fresh meat for BS in the future.

Because he is already looking for the next victim or already was working one :(

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Troutly! I'm glad to see YOU back!!!

Sorry... a little hijacking. But I mean it sincerely.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

The only thing we elderlies can do for you youngsters is to give the hint that some people might get a problem if they continue speculating about "bogus", "fogerty"....
If the check is scheduled those members who insulted somebody in the public might get a problem as the legal action concerning the money has found an end but not the question who insulted who.

As everybody here knows and certainly agrees:
The two letters "BS" stands for Bewildering Surfers and is a general term in the internet - it doesnt stand for any surfer in particular - agreed?!....... Yes? Good!
Those who posted statements on a 9-letter-login-poster or even mentioned the full name and included an insult might get a problem - the advise of the admin to stop all foul language is also a hint for all to avoid legal actions against themselves following insults. :eureka:

So to find an end: those who have downloaded the thread should not give the downloaded file to any other person. It includes more negative statements than some might wish. Good luck.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

I agree. His tracks have been covered up by us. No record from here now if someone were doing a search on the net as a few OSO members did last week and ran across the motorcycle board. All those topics should have been locked, not deleted.

Anywho, good luck on the funds LubeJob. And with the other incident.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

It wouldn't do much good leaving it up on this site. He knows his game is done around here. I doubt he tries any other boating site, because he knows there are a lot of people that go to several sites. Remember, his last place to harvest victims was on a motorcycle site/club.

I'd look for him to go classic cars or something next.

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Gino,
Sounds good so far, hopefully this will end your involvement with that idiot!

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Glad you are getting your money back from BS. One day at a time.

See Steve we are all playing nice on here

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Hope he's paying US funds and not Canadian, good luck

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Well from what i see his Father is now involved...And his father seems to be tring to get him straightened out...His father knows about everything....And is trying to right the wrongs...Don't know if i would be as good as his father is. hope he realizes that he would be toast without his Dad...But Scott is the most Arrogant person i think i have ever met..no one is ever as good as him..Talks down everyone...If his fatehr is involved in getting you the Check it will be good....

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Gino, I have friends in the fraud unit of the Toronto police. If it bounces, send me a copy so they can go knock on BS's door.

Was he wimpering like a sad little girl on the phone like he was when he talked to me after being outed?

Re: Wire from BS update.
 

Just a heads up on our Canadian banking system. I am from Toronto. We only have 6 major Canadian banks. When you call the bank branch on the cheque or in the telephone listings, you will get a central clearing office and not the branch where BS banks. The central clearing people are generally misinformed and usually not very helpful. Do not take there word for anything. Make sure you ask to be connected to the bank branch itself. The people at the branch usually know their customer. Ask for an account manager. They are generally very helpful. Good Luck
