HOW DUNKCLUSIVE SCAMMED FOR THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS - INVESTIGATION IN PROGRESS
This scam is something that reaches beyond this site and has hit home for alot of people. While they seem to have had business transactions before, some reason they no longer have legitimate practices. The story below is from a user of our site 'Sahian78â².
If you have any information please contact him or leave a message below. The effort that alot of people in our forums have already provided has far exceeded any detective work that any law enforcement agency could of completed in such a short amount of time.
===============================
I have been a victim of Internet fraud.
I am writing to find out what I should be doing next and who I should be contacting. I've had some friends in the area research and so forth but I need more help.
I really want a photo of the perp.
An online business committed the fraud. They pretended to be a consignment store. I sent my goods to them (have records), they received them (have records) and kept them without the intention of ever paying me for the goods I sent them.
The basic scam was using referals. As many of us do we list items online that we are looking to sell.
After posting in various forums and go back-and-forth between various parties I received an email referring me to an online consignment store (www.dunkclusive.com). I checked it out. It was new, and there was so positive feedback for the shop. So I thought, that would save me dealing with emails and deals.
So I sent off the shoes and they were received in two days (26 April 0.
The first thing that raised my suspiscions was that the online store was not updating it's stock with my shoes. Strange. So then I tried contacting them, so when the initial email address ([email protected]) I was using to contact the store stopped working I began to get concerned. So I contacted them through their website (contact form - see below), I quickly received an email from a new address ([email protected]) saying that they weren't sold but things were looking good.
Over a month passes when I decide to get my shoes back and sell them on my own again.
And this is when it all starts to fall apart.
You can read how the entire thing went down on this thread - where I show the emails, chat logs, private messages, pictures, and more. You can read the development that starts off as linking the online store to a known fraud. Then the perp who starts name calling and so forth ends up being the person behind the online store and about a half-dozen other identities.
The website - www.dunkclusive.com - is now ofcourse down.
They supposedly had a physical store at
Dunk Clusive
6895 Katella Ave
Cypress, CA 90630
Here's what's actually at that adderss -
This store at the Target strip mall is a vacant premise that used to be Omni Video - 714 828 6644 - until earlier this year.
I called the real estate agent listed on the door - Margaret Watkins - who confirms that no one has used the premis since Omni Video. This is also confirmed by the manager at Omni Video.
From personal research and information from others who have been scammed I have been able to attain the various names, addresses and phone numbers of some of the people involved.
Robert Campbell / Linda Campbell / Christina Fernandez
11075 Lambert Way
Stanton, CA 90680
714 379-2770
Known cell - 714-423-3677
It's a safe bet that this address is the headquarters of all of this, because when he was using 'legitimate' alias this was the address and name used most often.
White Pages listing of address
pics of the place
I can confirm that the black navigator is the perps car from an eye witness who did a face-to-face trade a couple months back.
Jose Tobar / Ana Ortiz
13142 Willamette st
Westminster , CA 92683
This is the actual address that my shoes were sent to.

Will Carver
930 E 11th st
Long Beach , ca 90804
I have also found that numerous other people have been frauded by the same individual(s) over a period of at least 8 months throughout the States and overseas.

The one eye witness I have, said that the perp looked like Greg Foster - the former back-up centre to Shaq when he was at the Lakers!
I have filed a report with The Internet Crime Complaint Centre ( http://www.ic3.gov/ ).
I have emailed everything I have to the Orange County Police Department.
BUT we all know that the authorities are really not going to be interested in a kid who scams expensive sneakers off others. Especially when each scam is around the $1200 mark. But when you add the scams this guy has done we are looking at $25,000+ in shoes. Remember that many of these limited editions shoes can go for $2000 EACH on the market, so that's only about two dozen shoes.
