Beware of Tim Bolle in Minnesota
 

If I can be of any non-confrontational help...let me know. I live in Coon Rapids, a hop skip, and jump away from "Crooklyn" Center and Plymouth.

Sorry to hear about your mis-fortune. :(

That sucks ..... americanrider you live close to me I am just off 101st and pacific Jack

Bigblock 73, are you aware of any 4x4 shops in your area that may be going belly-up? That was the background of most of his sales, that he has a bunch of warn winches and had to get rid of them. He delivered on the plow parts but never on the winches and some lg truck mirriors. I'm thinking that he might work for such a shop. If I can locate this bum I'll turn the info over to the cops. There is a set of chrome bracelets with his name on them.
Thanks !

jostrans68, I live south of Elk Plain along Mtn Hwy. Drop an e-mail and maybe we can get together for a cup o' joe? :flag:

Boone, not aware of any 4x4 shops closing...but then again I never pay attention because I am a 2by guy. I will keep my eyes and ears peeled tho.

Jeff, are you into the bike scene at all? Zylstra HD?...corn

Americanrider,I`m curious how that situation is turning out.I`d like to handle this for you in an anything but non-confrontational way.No,I`m never in that area, don`t know anything about him,and ain`t nearly that big.But,his name is Tim and so is mine!Sorry to here this,Tim

Update, Apr 05 / TimBolle was question by the Plymouth PD and gave a statement. For what the Detective says that he agreed to repay the 6 or 7 people he cheated and was going to do so within 30 days. The 30 days ran out about 3 weeks ago and Bolle moved and cannot be located. He was living with girlfriend/ex-wife since he cannot rent a place on his own (his credit is worthless) Now the case goes to the county prosecuter for formal Felony Theft charges. So far no word from the county DA.

UPDATE, 9 months later.....
 

Another update: Jul/Aug 05 Got a letter from the Hennepin County Attorney's office asking for a complete list of all my expenses related to this case. I filled it out and sent it back. I listed my mileage to & from post office@.25 per mile, Long distance calls, Mailing fees and Post office MO tracer fees and the total came to over $700.

His real name is Timothey Eugene BOLEY. The charges were all bundled into one case and he was charged with Theft by Swindle over $2,500. This is a more serious felony than having 7 smaller charges of Theft by swindle over $500. Since he has no prior felonies he went into the DeNovo program and must repay all of the restitution to ALL of us.

Under this program the charges will be set aside for 1 year in exchange for community service, classes, probation and full restitution repayment. He only has one year to do this or the charges will be brought back on him and he will be back in court. He must pay the courts and then they will send me a check. (Hopefully) I will update this thread if anything else happens. Just wanted to say that if you get burned in a deal on e-bay or anywhere online, keep fighting and NEVER give up!!

Sorry to hear about your ebay/rip off .

Is their a thread on this board about such people that we dont want to sell or trade with.

Only reason Ive had two people say they would buy but never had money show .
I wish you good luck . And I hope when and if he renews his license they see that hes got felony charges.

Steve.

Steve feel free to write your reviews on sellers in this area. This area is set up to host good and bad product and vendor reviews.

Boone its good to see something happening after all this time. Good luck with it all.

Is he still living in Plymouth? I work in Plymouth not that I would run into him. Only about 60,000 people or more in town.

Please refrain from comments not applicable to the thread.

If he is a member of this board he should be an as of now an x member we don't need mistrust among members trust is why this board works so well that and some dedicated people. Just mtc.8bolt

Good luck!

BTW: It may not apply in this case but, it is sometimes not a good idea to publish information about an ongoing investigation/civil case ... a good layer can use that to demonstrate prejudice against his client and get the case snuffed.

The existance of the case and the charges are public record though so that can always be relayed without concern.

Liz...I'm glad to see you're not pissed (could I say this here?) anymore, LOL. I like your new avatar much better than your old one.

He has already admitted to doing this and took a plea. Everything I have written here is true. I used his real name because I want EVERYONE to know this POS is guilty... even if a court does not convict him I know what he did to me.

thanks ;) lol...
only thing that pisses me off aropund here is the few tryin to stir sh!t daily and make it look like they are not :D those who are doin that in this thread ( and elsewhere) need to stop now... and yep I can say that here :)
