Famous GS300 Purple fuckboi scammed me on his engine!

Here's the post/ story:

**Got screwed over** Looking for any help** Share around**

Anybody good friends with Adam Mao, willing to help me out?

He fucked me over on his engine and has denied to compensate for the parts?
Long story short, I paid 9k$ for the entire setup (engine, tranny, harness, ecu, injectors, etc.)..

I got word last week from a technician at FFtec that they did a leak down test on the motor before I bought it and the motor was shit... So i asked adam, he told me what happened. Regardless, I didn't listen to the nay say, I did a leak down test myself. 5 times with two different testers, all getting the same results:

3 cylinders are bad. 1, 3, 4.

They're leaking over 20%. I contacted him and we argued for hours via text not coming to a resolution. Since then, he's blocked me and denied to pay for the bottom end or give me money back so I can rebuild the bottom, excluding shop labor. YES, I WAS GOING TO DO IT MYSELF.

He posted selling with Eagle Rods. He lied and admitted they are GTE rods. He went and re-edited his post today @ 5:29pm and deleted the rods. I have pictures of everything, and took a screenshot of the post at 2:29pm before he removed it. He lied about who built it or that he did/ instead of buying it.

I'm just trying to get my money back and be whole again and not screwed over. Any help I'd appreciate it guys.
Facebook DM me or text me 925-628-7956 if you have info for me
Sucks man, good thing you have plenty of documentation. I would start off by send him a general demand letter asking for money. This program will help you write one http://www.courts.ca.gov/11145.htm

Suggest you research small claims court, learn how it works.

If I were you, I'd write a demand letter, asking you want all your money back and you return all his parts due to the damaged engine. Or you can ask for enough money to cover the repairs AND include labor, will need a quote from a repair shop on labor cost.

$10,000 limit in California small claims court, lots of non-profit that will help you through the process, it's time consuming but it actually moves fast once you get the ball rolling. Even the threat of a demand letter may have him opening up the wallet.

GL!
