Spark-EV is a scam??   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #13927 of 21430 |
Here's some info for you guys. Last week, the managing director of Spark-EV,
Michael
Papp, started a forum for Spark-EV "customers". It was your basic standard forum
& I
participated in some of the discussions, as did Mr Papp.

One discussion in particular had a bunch of posts of ordinary people simply
wanting
proof that Spark-EV were indeed making, selling & delivering the cars that they
claimed
they were. Mostly, people just wanted to see pics of their showrooms, the lots,
the
offices, basically anything that backed up their claims & that it was a
legitimate business.

Mr Papp posted some lame pics of an electric controller & that was about it.
People
called him on it & he got a bit snippy with his replies. No one was really mean
or out of
line, all they wanted was proof of ANY kind, no big deal & certainly not a tall
order for a
man in his position.

There were a couple random posts from members with names like "EV Man" & such
that
claimed they had indeed received their cars & they were ecstatic. But, it was
thought from
some of the other posters that these members were "plants" as they only had 1
post total
& were never heard from again.

Sooo, guess what happened next? The forum has been completely erased from
existence.
Not "down for maintenance", just gone & it has been for days now. Here is where
it was:

What do you guys think??

Hi coffeebot, welcome to one of (if not the) most active E.V. groups in the US. There are a lot of owners and engineers here, and whereas we are a Xebra group,...
