    I had the unfortunate pleasure to deal with Kyle Fuller myself. At this point he was working under the name Fullhouse Arcades. I had him turn an old Pac Man machine into a multicade which he did and things were well. I then thought he and I were friends ad he seemed like a very trustworthy guy. Around this same time sc93cobra was getting scammed I was too. I had a Lethal Weapon 3 pinball machine and was about to sell it to a guy in McDonough Ga who owns a rec type warehouse for $1600.00, but when Kyle Fuller found out he said " Man please don't sell to my competition. I'll buy it." I then decided to sell it to him. He paid me partially on Paypal and then the next day paid me the rest in cash. I thought all was well in the world and I told him I'd really like the chance to but it back once I got out of the financial jam I was in. He assured me he would hold it for me and I even said hey business is business and if he needed to sell it go ahead. About 1 month after he bought my LW3 he textex me at around 2:30 am and asked if I could send him some money via paypal and he would knock it off of the machine. He said he was at the casino and didn't want to stop playing just yet. I told him to give me a minute to see if I could and before I could check my paypal he messages me and says " I sent you $600.00 . Send it back to me through friends and family." I then asked him how that works and he said he was using his company credit card and getting an advance on it and that his debut card would only allow a $400.0p a day limit. I sent him the money back and all was well. He then 2 hours later asked if we could do this again and we did it for another $600.00. Over the next week we did this totaling nearly $4600.00 and paypal hadn'tv flagged the transactions. I figured if it was a scam paypal would catch it and stop it before this money could be sent seeing it was being sent from his business Fullhouse Arcades. Anyway skip ahead about a week and a half and I'm purchasing my kids a swingsetvon Ebay. When I went to buy it I then realized I was robbed. I knew I had at least $2900.00 in paypal, but when I logged on I was nearly $3200.00 negative. Turns out his mother had an American Express card and had him one issued for his business. However, once she saw the transactions on her statements along with over $40,000 worth of others where he had scammed other people she filed a charge back. I was able to get in touch with Kyle's sister, brother and parents who were very very nice and they had informed me that Kyle had been in prison some time back and they thought he had gotten his life in track. Now his mother at first was reluctant to call American Express and tell them what her son had done, because that wouldn't gotten him arrested so for nearly 2 weeks I was late with all of my bills and had nearly $1200.00 in bounce and late fees, because my bank account was attached to my paypal and they emptied it out too. Luckily I talked to the right person at paypal and got all of my money except for $500.00 of it back which was the money He sent originally for the pinball machine. His brother also gave me back my LW3 pinball machine. Now when I found out my accounts were in the negative I called Kyle immediately and he didn't answer. I texted him with no response. I truly at this point thought it was an honest mistake, because he is very cunning and you'd never believe by meeting and hanging with him that he would be like that. Finally after paypal gave me back most of my money I got a text from Kyle telking me I owed him for that pinball machine and he was going to have me locked up! LMAO!!!! I told him he could go to hell and I also could've had him arrested, but because his family were so nice and I got my most of my money back I decided not to. Then he texted my wife calling her a whore and my kids retarded at which point we went to a detective and he issued a restraining order against him. After talking with his family I found out he had relapsed and been on a coke binge stealing from everyone racking up over $40,000 worth of debt on his poor mom. I haven't seen him since, but I heard he found out he has a rare heart disease and the Dr have him 5 months to live unless he got a heart transplant and that was on super bowl Sunday so who knows if that was a lie to make people pity him and not have him arrested. Either way I'd advise everyone reading this to never ever ever ever ever deal with this shady guy ever no matter the circumstance!!!!!!

    Wow excuse me word police. Guess I shouldn't use swype text to get my story out there to warn others of which apparently some didn't bother to read in full. A fool I was as I would've never believed Kyle would pull something like this. However, I figured if it were a scam there would be no way Paypal would've released the money to him. The transaction was completely 100% legit as the company and card had his name on it. The problem is when his poor mother received her statement totaling over $40,000. She was the primary card holder and issued him a card. Had she not filed the chargeback there wouldn't have been an issue, but I do not blame her as she didn't know anything about the shady deals he was making. She had a choice to tell American Express that her son scammed her sending him to jail and me getting my money back. Luckily Paypal fraud department after hearing what happened returned my money and said if his mom wanted to cover the cost then she could or send him to jail. Anyway it's been a lesson well learned and I was a newbie in this whole arcade and pinball world when it happened. Now I do not deal with Paypal whatsoever. It's cash and carry. P.S. The whole story I told was 100% the truth regardless of the pessimist doubting me.

    My God are some people incapable of reading? This must be Kyle himself or his boyfriend. Either way I won't waste time spacing or hitting return to satisfy some idiots. To the others who wanted an update on Kyle's heart condition let me say he was lying and that's been confirmed through several reputable people in this industry.

    I've also decided to exclude smart mouths from my future post warning them about scammers like Kyle! So the "Word Police" can save the unimpressive tough guy bit. I'm not impressed. Matter of fact I was simply warning others so they wouldn't get scammed without caring about any reply other than a thank you. Lol
