Of course, this Hopkins guy is not banned on D90. He'll probably continue to sell vehicles there for years if he's anything like the other scammers that site has harbored.
This is some Honda community level shit
Ask the cops? They barely helped me at all. I would have never got it back had I not driven to South Carolina and put my ass in the chair at the police station and said "I'm not leaving until my car is in the trailer" This still took 4 days. He has one of my snap on boxes listed for sale right now. It still has plastic on the top its so new. You would think that was a felony. But in reality, They dont careSo how come he is not in jail?
That's the guy on the picture?He is now bouncing around ebay accounts because of bad feedback. His new account is based out of Spokane WA. But he is still in SC. My local PD and SC PD both told me to just be happy I got the defender back.........

there is a lot more to this story than has been reported. There are also two sides and your all only hearing one side.
On Defendersource by broke1g said:(original post) If this double posts I apologize. When I arrived in Charleston the 90 was not at his house. I looked around on my own. Checked with storage places and auto parts stores like I was looking for a lost child. Finally, I just went and started talking to his neighbors. He called the police on me!!!!! Tried to take control of the situation using a fake power of attorney and a wire transfer receipt from my business with his name on it. He had access and did wire the initial payment from my account. The responding police got confused told me they couldn't help and I would have to leave and get an investigator at the police headquarters. As I am a very calm person at all times my wife on the other hand was steaming out of her ears. We left and went to the station. The officer heard out our side of the story and left to go speak with MR. Hopkins, once they had spoken we got together again. I had to defend Mr. Hopkins rather clever plan. He showed a forged power of attorney "singed by me" claimed the company was his using the wire transfer receipt. He was trying to spin it into a civil matter because he has no suable value. Well The secrtary of the state keeps pretty good records of who owns what company. Pretty easy to prove I feel as if I just wrote a novel and not covered half of what happened. Basicly dont feed a cop a story that an onlie goverment database will prove wrong in less than 5 minutes. The officer also called CBP and my customs broker and talked with them pulled my import records ect.
Attached is the happy dance right after it made it to the station. All in all this has a happy ending. When I got home I decided I was going to finish the full every nut and bolt LHD, TDCI body convertion and stick an LS in it. I am 10 weeks out from the finish line as we speak
