Fields Was contracted to do a custom food truck. Customer Paid $10,000 deposit and was promised a 6 wk build, after getting vehicle and equipment. Fields said he got truck locally, then said he had to go out of state to get it. Said he went there but guy wouldn't sell him truck. Said he found another truck (over 2 weeks since deposit), and ordered most of equipment. Avoided phone calls, emails, etc. Started threatening legal action against CUSTOMER (after taking his deposit and delivering nothing).

Gave false address in advertisements

Apparently, Fields worked for a very reputable builder in the same town and was fired. Started putting up pix of the other company and claimed as his own, as well as taking text directly from his ex employers web site to describe his company. Said he has been building trucks since 1999, but the guy is only 27 years old. 

Claimed a next door auto body shop was his shop, but after checking, found that was false. He's actually building trucks next to his delapidated cabin, next to a creek outside.

This scam artist changed his company name to Vector, and now has just as bad of a reputation as he had before. He caught four bullets near his hime in WV back in January 2020, but sadly didn't die. That's OK though, maybe he learned a lesson in humility, maybe not. Just a matter of time before it all catches up to him. I've never forgotten and never will. My initial 10K "investment" with this loser I gave up (for now), but the remaining 60K I had to invest with him should he had PROVEN to me he was legit I placed elsewhere, and in the end it was a very shrewd move. I look back at that episode now and realize that it was meant to be. It's gonna be meant to be in the end for him too, for the wicked always get theirs in the very end.

Your attorney has contacted me, and we will do our best working together to eliminate this human cancer that feeds on honest, hard working people. In the meantime, I am keeping "feelers" on this individual every so many weeks there near his residence. I myself have observed him at his physical location, and geographical locations in the immediate area (2) times since (1/13). IC3.GOV (the internet fraud division of the FBI) will recieve "follow ups" shortly. I am willing to appear in person with any and all recorded interactions, both audibly AND via text (e-mail & Facebook), along with any applicable paperwork, and give my testimony in full support sir. It would be my pleasure to venture there to Charleston WV at least once in the last two years and actually get some satisfaction out of the visit for a change, and not just spend $ to evesdrop on a loser.

The Facade Begins To Crumble Before The Attorney General's Very Eyes

Oh....what a truly tangeled web we weave, when we seek to deceive. Got a message just today from yet ANOTHER victim of your barely two year escapade into your little "business" as you call it that you claim you've "operated" for nearly 16 years now. Every "customer" that submits a claim against you on Ripoff Report all chuckle in unison to the fact that you can't EVEN do basic math to substantiate your claims on this very basic premise. This latest victim contact has contacted me prior, but just wanted to inform me that the West Virginia Attorney General has officially opened a fraud case against you. You're also under investigation by the state AND now IRS for tax evasion (get THIS consumer) on the INCOME you've recieved from all of your victims thus far. Dude....you couldn't EVEN keep the facade "legit" enough by just paying the taxes due on money you've STOLEN from others? Really? Really. Again, I have ALL and EVERY E-mail corrspondance we ever had proving you ripped us as bad or worse than anyone else lobbing claims against you here on Ripoff Report. I noticed your Facebook accounts are nixed. I noticed that after my correspondance with E-Bay, you now must deliver a disclaimer advising any and all potential "victims" that any vehicle YOU have listed on E-Bay, unlike ANYONE else in America, doesn't ACTUALLY EXIST. The image portrayed on your behalf on EVERY E-Bay offering is merely a "likeness" of what the potential victim "could" have  through you, should they be so naive to conduct business with a unscrupulous individual such as yourself. Facebook? Crippled. E-Bay? Kaput for all intents and purposes, nobody buys "ideas" and "wishes" on E-Bay. Period. Marshall Motors? (the site you primarily took advantage of unknowingly to publish "legitimate" images of build-ready vehicles) Barred YOU from Copyright© infringement on their products (see my initial entry, Mr. Zimmerman(owner) and myself tried in vain for nearly a WEEK to get together on a purchase FOR this loser). I'm sure by now the walls have "closed" in somewhat, and I/we can only pray daily that they continue to shrink for you. I STILL have (2) attorneys (I narrowed it down from the original 6) ready to file against you for the ENTIRE (10K) you STOLE from my accounts once it's signed over to THEM. At that point Mr Fields, it's YOU who will walk down the hallways and make the trip down the sidewalk past THEIR offices on the way to litigation, not ME traveling (6)hrs one way to waste my time in a courtroom. And ON that subject, I've met with your former employer there in Charleston, got some great advice this past Summer, and have laid the initial groundwork to begin business in the Spring of (2015) in the Appalachins in a VERY profitable and secure location amongst REALLY great friends. In the meantime, it's obvious that my personal 'plate" is full, since I haven't met with you in person to try to work SOMETHING out in this matter before I turn it over to others and make YOUR personal life infinately more complicated than it is currently. I've sold the property I originally mentioned in my primary submission, I've purchased another one in a state CLOSER to your location than I was at the date of our bogus "business contract" in Oct. (2013), and at the moment, I'm STILL getting things on the property AND in my day-to-day dealings here in the area together. My wife never missed a beat, and in fact is in a better locale today (11/25/14) than where she was a year ago in her real estate business ( 21st year BTW). Just letting you know that after getting this latest contact today, I decided to mosey on over to this AWESOME website (Ripoff Report.com) and read a little. One day before too long I'll be settled in here. And you sir are hardly forgotten here in the Hewett household. I wished you a Happy Thanksgiving last year on this very week even though you left my wife in tears just ONE DAY from now with your angry, "barking" tone to here on the phone as you informed her....and in effect myself for the first time in our three month ordeal that we were quote "Too much trouble, a headache to deal with, and you were considering "dropping" us" endquote. As I stated in my original submission, she walked in after that conversation, looked me SQUARE in the eyes, with hers welling up and responded with quote " He's screwed us, I made a mistake in choosing to trust him and send him that check for 10K" endquote. You don't get that courtesy from me in (2015) Mr. Fields, you're simply being reminded that we're still here, we're just occupied...for now.  CONSUMER PUBLIC...YOU HAVE BEEN DULY NOTIFIED: RUN, DON'T WALK AWAY FROM THIS SCAM ARTIST

YOU have not built over 140 trucks!! The company you got fired from has done that. I've already talked to them and I have also talked with others. Your website claims that you''ve been doing this since 1999, but that would have made you 14 years old! The other company said you started working for them in 2005. More lies from you. You have pictures on your website of other company's trucks from WV, MI and other states that you simply took from their websites. More lies from you. I've talked with the company in Detroit that you did this to.

You've NEVER had a threat from me.

You build trucks outside. The shop next to your house is a totally different company that occasionally fixes things for you. We've already talked with them too. More lies from you.

You are a dishonest scam artist. Everything on your website and facebook pages are false. The pictures, the descriptions, etc. If you have built all these trucks with no complaints, please provide names and contact info of 10 of your satisfied customers that we can contact.

We have located and ordered all equipment for the build of this truck totaling $12,125, They  located them a truck and was going to bring it to us to build, the money come from the truck budget, They then wanted me to give them the goods and show them how to build the truck. We are under contract to build the truck we "build'' Trucks not order equipment for other builds as I stated to them. They where ok with this I took $1500 out of the build for the transport of the truck, I have told them many times bring the truck and it will be built in 30 days as stated.

The truck fails to show and I keep getting threated. I do Not have a delapataed shack and Have built over 140 trucks with No complants until now and we have tried to resolve the problem with the Hewetts and nothing is good until we show them how to build a truck. The problem has been resolved but they will not proceed They keep spreading Lies they showed up at the shop before signing the contract looked around and was completly satisfied with it all.
