If anyone on this forum or any other forum has been scammed by a Michael Spector in Phoenix Arizona please contact me. I am working with a detective that has found Mr. Spector. The problem is the D.A. is hesitant to do much as Mr. Spector was smart enough to keep his scams under $1,000 and unless multiple people come forward he will escape prosecution.

Moderator feel free to post this anywhere you would like. He used Graybar on the ruger forum

Thanks for the heads-up. I hope he gets nailed.

That is so last year:

I just received an email from the detective in Phoenix handling this case. He says he interviewed the turd and his stories did not jive. Problem is this guy is 79 years old and the county attorney may not prosecute unless a few more come forward. Every victim/witness helps to assure he will not pick up where he left off. He is well aware that the DA may not prosecute so he goes silent for a few months, hits a new forum, but same MO. He needs to be held accountable. If any of you are on any other forums that Mr. Spector may have pulled the same scam please reach out to the members or give me the lead to do so via PM. I am 72 so I have no sympathy for this guy. He knows exactly what he is doing and flaunting it.

Yes, over a year old and this detective has gone back to cases over two years old. He needs to show a pattern as Spector was wise enough to keep is scam to under $1,000 to avoid felony charges. A pattern with same MO will net him felony charges, regardless if the amount is under $1,000.

So far two other on the Ruger forums and one on the 24hourcampfire forum have come forward.

Phoenix PD is on this? Great, I guess. But if this guy is scamming people across state lines, there could be many Federal violations. And a stepped up Federal effort is needed to stop this crap.
