ONLINE SHOPPING BULLSHIT

ONLINE SELLING BULLSHIT: guy who won my Macbook Auction last Monday hasn't paid, if I have to re-sell it'll probably be too late for anyone to buy it for Christmas, so I'll get less

still a great read though! it is hilarious to read knowing this arrogant schmuck has no idea what's coming his way now, if he had just said 'no comment/speak to my lawyers/every business has dissatisfied customers' this story has little impact and maybe even never sees print. and unlike simply selling fake rolexes on the street or whatever this involves interstate commerce and mail fraud all it takes is one bored federal prosecutor looking to boost his numbers to take this fucker down.

exactly ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^. hubris and lack of self-awareness brings down a lot of people.

rip he did it for the lulz

Well this was predictable:

Another customer, identified in the complaint as Victim-8, clicked on an OpticsFast link that generated a shipping label to mail in glasses for repair. When he decided against using the label and refused to pay for it, OpticsFast sent him hundreds of emails, including 456 in a single day. Hundreds of them had “I WIN!!!” in the subject line.

Efforts to reach Mr. Borker at the time were unsuccessful, although he was not keeping a particularly low profile. Earlier in the year, he posted a GoFundMe plea for $1,000 to buy long skis for an April trip to Utah. His short skis, he said, would not suffice in deep-powder snow.

“Clearly, I don’t want to pay for this upgrade,” he wrote, in what by his standards qualified as a charm offensive. “Please give me money.”
