Craigslist Scammer Dave McDonald

The list grows on and on and on for innocent business owners ripped off by Dave McDonald. Please, please, do not be duped into giving him one red cent of your money. I read some of the reports online of him but mistakenly thought I could get a deal from him. He sucks you in after a decent sale and then offers a hard to pass up deal if you pay up front. Then the excuses come...I bought one vending machine from him and was offered a "buy 3 get the 4th free" deal. He wanted to hold the machines until I had accounts for them but thinking ahead (or so I thought) we agreed I would take all machines immediately. I played it safe (or so I thought) by only paying for 2 up front so he'd still want the rest off the money but again, I got sucked in to a hard to resist deal of $200 off the 3rd machine if I pay up front. (BIG MISTAKE!) Well, after weeks of badgering, dozens of broken promises, no-shows and flat out lies I got my 3rd machine. Mind you this is after months of lies! Every machine was a battle. Not once did it come easy as you expect. A death in the family, mom is sick, an emploeye screwed up, my truck is in the shop, I have a terrible sinus infection, I'm overwhelmed.. He'll even send you pictures of your machines loaded on his truck and promise delivery in the morning To get you off his back for a day. Guess what, it's NOT going to happen! "Bank on it" "I'm really sorry I know I screwed up, I'm going to shock you with an incredible machine" " I need and appreciate your business". ALL LIES. Yes, he'll even have his mom call and vouche for him. "He's been really sick but your machine is beautiful, it's the best one I've seen". It's so outrageous it's hard to believe but do your research on him and everyone will confirm the same bullshit stories. I'm still out $900 and no machine as promised for over 2 months. Do you realize how many times you have to lie to not deliver a machine for 2 months? I even lost my best account because I made the mistake of "banking on it" with him.

i have every single text saved to verify every lie he's ever told and what is owed. Call me out Dave, I'd be happy to post all your lies available for download. You're a liar and a thief. This is just the beginning. When I'm done with you, you won't be able to sell a machine from a grass hut in Indonesia.

Where to begin with this sleaze bag. His words are like butter on toast. He sounds so good, his deals so good it's hard to pass up but he can't deliver on his word. He is like a snake! I wired him over 10k. You guessed it he took it and I was left with only excuses and false dates and tracking numbers. Stay away from him! I just spoke with him over the phone. I said I learned a thing or two about the law and he flipped out over the phone, swearing like a sailor. He said I don't know you from Adam. Says he does business with 25 people a day. And he screws up to 25 people a day, he screws so many people he does not know them from Adam because this is a regular routine for this ugly man. He says our conversation is done then he calls and threathens me at all hours using his manipulation tactics and for others I suppose it works. If there is only a few people writing a few sentences here and there about this mans character there are arguably 100's of people he has taken everything. He told me to listen to myself over the phone, sad because I remained calm and he was freaking out. Yes, when judgement day comes, I doubt he can fool God.
