    AudiS4guy SCAM ALERT.... Quynh Phan

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Posting information for others, hopefully someone has more information on this douche bag...

    on AW here is his account information, he looks to be on this board too but hasn't been active since 2004 or 2005...

    Account ID #: 79060

    Name is Quynh Phan

    Sent to: Quynh Phan
    Email: [email protected]
    AIM: [email protected]

    his email is the same as his paypal, so be sure to NOT buy or sell isht to this guy - He lives in San Jose, and works for a major tech company...

    He's a squat, punk lookin vietnamese guy

    (here's his pictures)



    and he has had plenty of work done at EIP RACING in as his forum record contains plenty of photos and DYNO's from there... I apologize for the confusion on EIP RACING and EIP TUNING... they are not one in the same.

    EDIT: Replaced name of incorrect shop, EIP Racing in SJC is not the same as EIP Tuning that failed miserably, my mistake...

    I don't care if it gets locked - I just want it to get archived so that if someone searches the information they'll get it... I'll even happily post all the proof and the paypal complaint which was finally refunded, and the emails with another AW member of him selling him the SAME part...

    Re: AudiS4guy SCAM ALERT.... Quynh Phan

    EIP Racing in San Jose? Shit, I've been there. I don't think too highly of them. I know they have done some good work to Subaru's and Mitsu's but I won't go there for my euro car needs.

    Shit, I've probably seen the guy before. I was there for a dyno-day.

    What did he do to f- you over?

    I think this is his Myspace account...

    Thanks for the heads up. I buy alot of stuff from the members on here and the last thing i need is someone trying to screw me over.

    I have been screwed only 2 times but luckly for me it was no more than $50 both times. Scammers need to be shot!!

    He sold me a bipipe for 200$, too my money and then stopped talking to me... fortunately I paid with my paypal card and I got my money back - however at least one other person on the forum bought the SAME part for the SAME price and did not get their money back (yet)...

    Re: AudiS4guy SCAM ALERT.... Quynh Phan

    theirs more mature ways to handle this. Its good to let user's know things, but keep it mature, and state exactly what you were buying etc. tht way you dont look like a 16 yr old with a misunderstanding... Just a suggestion,

    Wrong EIP...I think you may want to remove that link...

    The link, complaints and info about switching to Subarus is all in reference to European Import Performance out of Westminster, MD, also known as EIP Tuning.

    EIP Tuning (owned by Rich Chiavacci) at one time was one of the more prominent shops doing VW R32 Turbo conversions, however their business failed.

    The company you are talking about Mr Pham hanging out at is European Imports & Performance (known as EIP Racing in the JDM market) http://www.euroip-inc.com/index.html

    I did state exactly what I was buying and following the links I have provided would have given you all that information as well - The transaction took place on AW

    I have no intent of stooping down to his level but I certainly am not going to let him take advantage of others when I have the ability to do something about it.

    please update your original post ASAP to correct the confusion you made about EIP Racing vs. EIP Tuning otherwise this thread will have to remove as we cannot leave a thread containing false accusations, even more so when these are wrongly directed towards one of our AZ Official Advertisers.

    while you're at it, please also remove any racial comments, there is no need for these.

    I did update the original post, but I don't see any racial comments.. I did indicate that he looks like a punk (he does) - he's squat (he is, 5'8") and is vietnamese... (he is in fact vietnamese according to his myspace and other information) - I did not slander him racially nor did I make any characterization about him as a result of his race. I included his race for informational purposes and posted his picture for the same reason.

    You still have a link pointing to a Vortex thread that has nothing to do with your failed transaction.

    as of yet it has not, I have not been able to go out to SJC again, I travel there a LOT but not during the end of the year, I did in fact get my 200$ back through paypal, but beyond that I haven't done anything. When I am back in SJC I will track him down though and be sure to post any and all information I can get. Ironically, EBAY is now one of my customers, lol....
