Title: **BEWARE** Pookie is back at it
Post by: George Schalk on December 12, 2022, 11:22:34 PM
**BEWARE**
It looks like Marty McIntosh aka Pookie is back at it on Facebook on some of the Shelby pages.  Just thought I'd forewarn some potential victims.  Buyer beware!!

Yes.  I saw this as well.  He is asking $2,500 for the fuel cap / emblems.

I think for all the newbies here it would be interesting to also tell what is wrong with the guy and his parts as they don't know the whole story and with my English its difficult to write it down. Just a thought as there are some new members here who are looking for parts.

He joined my group 1969 1970 Shelby Mustangs. I-and my other moderator-will now keep an eye on him. Corrected: gone now from this group.

Let's just say Marty McIntosh is one not to be trusted.  He's made quite a name for himself by deceiving a lot of people in the Shelby community.  He goes by a few different aliases.  His claim to fame is to re-package used and reproduction parts, in original Ford boxes with the part numbers crossed out and advertise them as N.O.S.  You will definitely not get what you pay a lot of $$$ for.  He's definitely a con-man!!

No worries, the ad is deleted and Pookie has been banned from the 69-70 Shelby facebook page  ;)

Can't do anything on the other one, if you see them, just report them to the admin of those pages as the scam they apparently are

There is also a scammer on the Boss302 site as well...
Personally, I try to deal with people that I know, or people that are well known.
