So I never thought people would start counterfeiting ECU's but its here.

http://hondata.com/s300_counterfeit.html
Kpro's and S300
Only reason I found out about this is because I got unlucky and got a counterfeit K-pro. Only thing keeping me from finishing my swap. Extremely frustrating and really pisses me off.
Second time buying off a forum second time getting fucked. NEVER again!

Watch What You Buy fellas.

If it's before 45 days, you can file a paypal claim.

They said they wont do anything unless other people complain about it. Going to my bank this week to see if they will do anything, they are pretty good about it.

I bought a fake compact flash memory card once, it was like an 8 gig card and when I looked at pictures on my camera it took like 3 seconds for each picture to load up. Luckily it was only like $15 so it wasnt too big of a loss.

your bank should be able to get it back for you, either that or if you use a credit card they will usually get it back for you as well. good luck on getting back! where exactly in florida did this come from? i had a guy in florida rip me off here recently as well

sadly, they will. they make bank off people i would imagine, sell it just a little cheaper than normal so people think they are getting a great deal. thats why the saying if its too good to be true it probably is exists.
