WARNING! Manny Sosa in Miami Florida 305-527-5593 SCAMMER, THIEF
« on: November 04, 2012, 05:30:13 PM »
Hey guys, new member here but on KLOV for a couple years (fizgig)

Manny Sosa is a thief, con artist and a liar.

I've tried to work this out with Manny for about 6 months and no luck.

I bought 32 monitors from him June 26, 2012
I paid him $3200 for the monitors and $200 for building materials to crate them for shipping. He insisted on wire transfer to his Chase Bank. I did some background check on him and found he was in coin-op for several years but i didn't dig deep enough to find out he wasn't to be trusted until later. I also learned he's using the CHASE BANK address as his home address. (I admit this was my mistake, i know better)

Dozens of text messages and phone calls later I tried over and over to have STI pick up the monitors at Mannys location but he wouldn't do it. Excuses ranged from going through divorce, truck problems, money problems, weather, extreme weather, climate change, and on and on.... ALL BS as i watched him list stuff on Ebay and Craigslist on a daily basis, pinball machines, juke boxes, arcades, repair services, etc.

He finally delivers 16 of the monitors September 1, 2012 to STI/North American Van Lines.
These were suppose to be used, burn-free vision pro monitors. 6 of the 16 had no burn, 10 had light burn.

Several more attempts to retrieve the remaining 16 monitors or a refund have been futile. My calls just go to voice mail now.
I haven't contacted the local authorities because i'm in CA but i will soon. Any Miami locals want to make a few bucks?

I should note, ALL HE NEEDED TO DO WAS OPEN THE DOOR AND STI WOULD DO THE REST, THAT'S IT. How hard is that?

How is that spamming? I'm not selling anything, just informing others to avoid Manny.

The address 8212 NW 201st Street is a RESIDENTIAL address.  My father used to live about a mile away from there.  Pulling it up on my Maps App on my iPhone and zooming in confirms it's a residential area.  Searching his name comes back with this address and head of household "Angela Sosa".  I bet that this is his actual home.

I would contact the Internet Crime Complaint Center and file a report:

http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx

You can also file a report with the Miami-Dade Police Department:

Sounds like federal wire fraud if you wired money into his account across state lines. It's FBI time.

Yeah i think one post is enough.

Sorry to hear about the problems. Manny has come into the chat room once or twice but that was awhile ago. I don't really know him. Maybe somebody down south can try to contact him on your behalf?

I've had long distance deals go south before and it's very frustrating trying to get a resolution.

Yeah, frustrating is an understatement. So much wasted time and energy on this loser. Any local help would be greatly appreciated.

i might see him in february, and can try to coax him to take care of you and this issue, but no promises...i don't know him THAT well...i've helped him out, but he's 2 hours south of me.

the monitors are in a warehouse out west of your locations. to my knowledge, they were all pulled from cherry machines. none are burn free, though. you can see burn-in in the old eBay ads.

the below information has nothing to do with him:



Phone Numbers:
Other: 215-361-0211
Other: 215-646-2689
Other: 305-621-7595 (sister?)

I'm not familiar with this location involving manny:
18520 Nw 67th Ave # 212
Hialeah, FL 33015

Home Address (he's on the home title)
8212 NW 201 st.
Miami fl.33015


you didn't list his warehouse. i'll have to research to see if i can find it. it's out west from what you listed.

Is someone referring to me?  And if so, in what context?  Thanks.
