That doesn't mean every rim posted, that means some kid posting way under cost saying he has a bunch and needs them gone ASAP, aka someone not authorized by vossen and trying to sell more than one set of rims. Being a smart a$$ here isn't going to get you anywhere but look like a moron.

good luck to the vossen crew, hopefully this scumbag is caught soon

Ummmm...hai. It's been done before.

Don't call someone a moron unless you yourself have an idea of what you are talking about.


edit: Here you go before you go asking for the sauce.

ADV1 wheels stolen or is it a marketing ploy?

Not wheel related, but marketing related.

Exclamation

WITHOUT EVIDENCE AND FACTS, THIS is NOT THE PLACE to start accusing a company/Vendor of federal offense.*** Its one thing to post opinions and feedback, but to throw out accusations during an investigation is disallowed. PLEASE SHOW SOME RESPECT!

If I see anyone else with these posts, they will immediately given a BAN from this forum!! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!

IF YOU THINK THIS IS A JOKE, just ask TIMG37x.

^ I'm curious, not challenging you, but how does someone's opinion violate any rules on this forum?

Just curious as to why post all over car forums when local media would be a much more reliable effort since it would alert those close to home. Meh...

I do watch a lot of Poirot.

Is this the warehouse? Lawdy that's a lot of wheels.

Was the local "Infiniti G Meet" hosted inside this said warehouse?

If it helps, I sent Autoblog a link to this thread. I hope it helps get the word out.

Thank you Admins/Mods and its sad it came to this point. We simply asked for any help with leads in the case. We have 100% cooperated with authorities. We have been contacted by wonderful people with possible leads. We posted on select forums as we all know how valuable and resourceful they can be. The internet being the internet, word spread out onto different forums. As 1cleanG said, insurance fraud is a FEDERAL offense and our customer service and reputation speaks for itself. I'm still stunned I read that accusation.

We even have been contacted by LEOs on forums who offered additional assistance and help. A lead is simple, something that looks suspicious that you might want to alert the police about. I will share that many were 20x10.5 rear wheels in various styles and no centercaps.

Hopefully we can close this chapter soon and justice will be served swiftly. Sorry if we did not give more specifics and details but we are handling this situation to the best of our ability with law enforcement.

Mike

Thank you for deleting my innocuous and inquisitive post.

That said, I hope the ppl who did wrong are brought to justice.

Saw a set of Vossen on a car last night. May be the perps. I think it was a black car...maybe silver.

Mods will always side with vendors on this site regardless of who is right or wrong. IB has 5 children to feed.

This has nothing to do with them being a Vendor. Without evidence, this thread/forum is not meant for accusations of a federal offense, but in light to try and HELP spread the word and help with the investigation.

If in fact it was proven to be fraud, it would definitely be allowed to be posted.

Please ladies and gents, keep this clean. I appreciate it.

I guess I don't understand what all the hate towards the vendors is. Their presence doesn't bother me and I have the option of buying a premier membership.
