Cat Auto Transport Michael Chaves, Michael Chavez They ordered 500+ worth of parts and did a charge back with the credit card company. Rumford, Rhode Island Rhode Island

This customer registered on our website and ordered a $500 set of diesel head studs.  At the time we didn't notice that his IP address was anonymized (using TOR).   He had the part shipped to a mail forwarding place. After about 5 days, we get a credit card chargeback saying that this was a fraud order.

I reached out to Michael Chaves numerous times and he told me it was all a misunderstanding.  That is b*******.  I found other companies he ripped off in the same way.

I tried contacting the Iowa (where we do business), and Rhode Island Attorney General.  Since this was an internet crime, they didn't have any interest in doing anything.  Here is a link to court records showing some of Michael's previous run-ins with the law:

Anyway, he is a thief and I would not do business with him. BEWARE!
