maybe he was in the proccess of moving and thought it was a good way to scam the kid and not get caught…hmmm, we could come up with theories forever and never know the real truth. I think we should just make sure his identity and info is exposed to the forum members and other websites related to LM or the members and put this one to bed. The most important thing was to stop him (which we did - on our site anyway…), get the parts back (check another off the list) and expose him to the public (on the to do list).
Congrats on getting your parts back, im sure it was a rollercoaster you really wanted to get off.
nows the time to make sure this dosnet happen again. A) ask for a death cetificate from his sister or get the police to look into it, so we know for sure if he will ever strike again.
Something is still fishy. “ChameleonMan” still hasn’t given the name/address to where he origionally sent his robot stuff. Just never seems to get around to doing it. Hmmm…
I get packages from USPS on saturdays. It is possible “she” used priority mail. It is much cheaper than UPS ground, or regular USPS. Sat. delivery is free with priority mail. Maybe “she” didn’t ship it out right away and sent it out a day or two late, which is why it took longer. 3 days + 1 day to process is normal for sending via priority mail. ChameleonMan needs to check the date on the package, thats all.
The package was sent by priority mail. I sent it to west virginia and it got sent back to me from texas. So it must have travelled at some point. The reason I have not posted the address I sent it to is I have not gotten permission from Jim. As soon as I hear it’s OK, I will post exactly where I sent the package. But the thing is, flash Burns told me to send the package to his work, and that’s where it got signed for. But I have his work and home info. Just give me the OK and i’ll do what you want me to.
So I searched the good old www for West Virginia Wireless and lo and behold…

Picked up the phone and dial them up. The guy who answered said he has never heard of James Williams. He has been there several months. So maybe Flash Burns did die! I’m all for saving his good name if he just plain up and died… In hindsight I should have asked for someone in personnel…
Interesting. Did you ask anything about “hager” ? Or talked to someone else higher up? If no one heard of james williams there, then he decided to not use his real name. I guess, as long as you got all your stuff back then its all good.
Is that what he used to place orders with Lynxmotion? Maybe the guy you talked to wasnt there long enough to hear of him. I’m sure if an employee died, the entire company would be aware of the death.
This is quite some story. I’m glad the stuff was returned, but the mystery still lingers on. I wonder what happened to James? Natural causes, car accident, etc…?
