Vince,

I'm new here, so don't know you, but you will be in my prayers. If I read some of the posts correctly, you were initially injured while in the military. If so, you have my appreciation as well as my prayers.

Get well soon!

Michael (USN, ret.)

I was excited to see a picture of the CF hood where, I do believe, you are standing and holding the hood, excellent stuff!!

Let us know how you are doing, if you have the time....

It looked like a scruffier version of Vince, so you may very well be right...

I am going to pray it was Vince standing there holding the hood

LMAO...



They are still running tests. As of right now Vince has some lower back injuries that affect the same area he had repaired from when he got injured while serving. This is causing most of the problems as the scaring makes it almost impossible to do any major surgeries to repair this area. Right know he has no feeling or movement in his legs from the knee down. There is cramping and pain in his hands and wrist they say from the spine injury. He is talking but his throat is swelled and sore where he hit it on the way down the steps. There are some smaller cuts and scraps he picked up during the fall. The problem is the steps where made of sharp metal and close to a story up. He is in good spirits as always. The truth is the way things look he may not walk again and if so, very limited with help. We will know more as time goes by. But their concern right now is with his hands and wrist.
LMAO

Not sure yet what else can be done to help him recover but for now he has limited use of his legs and his hands due to his injuries.
His injuries were to the same areas of his body where he sustained severe injuries years ago while serving in Iraq.
This is why the surgery is so difficult and why his full recovery is questionable.

He finds it very difficult to even type on a keyboard due to his current condition.
The staff at the hospital will hopefully be able to assist him with all his needs right now.
He is trying to contact people who have left him VM messages as he just now recovered his cell phone after it was lost for several weeks.
I sent this thread link to him in a PM so he can find it easily.

Hopefully he will be reading it today for the first time.
Unless he has help from someone else to type a response though you may not see him post here.
With all this being said he is still in good spirits and keeps a positive outlook on the entire situation.

His injuries were due to a physical attack and fall while on duty with law enforcement.
The specifics can not be discussed here but the attacker is in custody.

Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers through this holiday season.
LMAO...

I thought Vince had to be 'wheeled' into the garage, you know the one that burned down. Then how the hell is Vince holding up that hood? LMAO


Where shall we start...

Let me begin by telling you it is OK that you members of this forum have been scammed. Everyone falls for the gypsies lies once. If you would allow me, I'd like to expose a single or multiple charlatans , that have been bouncing around the net under the screen names Crazy_V and Never_Satisfied, aka' Vincent Leonard Demers and Kristy Demers.

Vincent L. Dememrs (aka' Never_Satisfied) was never hurt 'in the line of duty'. That is utter bullcrap. It appears that either him or his father was involved in a Human Rights lawsuit back in 1999 though...

http://www2.illinois.gov/ihrc/Docume...6%5BROD%5D.pdf

Seems like the Demers family doesn't have too many branches on the family tree. That or they aren't very creative in choosing first and middle names...LOL

The Demer family lives in two towns that are very close to each other, Clifton. IL and Chebanse, IL.

Looks like Vince and Kristy Demers did/still operate a PC shop in Clifton, IL.

Here is an interesting post Vince/Kristy made on RRTech in the 'New Toy' thread back in June 2010 ... http://www.realredraider.com/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=124915&postcount=467

Alright, let me begin by telling you that whoever Vincent L. Demers is, he sure isn't injured. Especially to a point where he has to be wheeled around and is unable to type on a keyboard.

Seem like this thread was started in November 2010.

Lets rewind first to May 2010, when Crazy_V, on RRTech, stated her house was broken into by Vince and that he whipped her *** and put her in the hospital for several days. Myself and two other forum members called and spoke to her supposed brother, because she left her phone when she was taken to the hospital. We got suckered into the ol' 'my soon to be ex-husband beat my *** feel sorry for me' routine, hook, line and sinker.





Here is the thread that Crazy_V (either Vince or Kristy) put up after receiving the $200 worth of flowers and chocolates from RRTech forum members, who threw in hard earned money and had them delivered to their house, over 30 miles away from the florist.

RRTech...The SOURCE for Extreme Liquid Cooling

Moving on, so Vincent was badly injured in November 2010 huh?? RIGHT....

Why was Vince's supposed wife posting on RRTech over 20 times from 2 December 2010 - 13 December 2010, if her husband was in some ICU bullcrap? Why, because it was all a LIE !!!

Go check his/her member page, click on STATISTICS tab, then Find all posts by Crazy_V link. Check it out for yourselves.

RRTech...The SOURCE for Extreme Liquid Cooling - View Profile: Crazy V

Now let's address Vincent Leonard Demers, shall we....

Go check his/her member page, click on STATISTICS tab, then Find all posts by Never_Satisfied link. Check it out for yourselves.

RRTech...The SOURCE for Extreme Liquid Cooling - View Profile: Never_Satisfied

Oh my, look what we have here. Never_Satisfied was posting on RRTech when all of y'all thought he was bed ridden and unable to type...







Then we find Vincent Leonard Demers posting on [H] forum, last week, claiming that his wife Kristy (Crazy_V) is dead...LOL



If Kristy is dead, then who made these posts on this forum 14 May 2011??

Originally Posted by Never_satisfied

Parts:
2x Wet & Dry Air Filter Covers - 15.00 For both
Black Powder coat Mesh Grilles Inserts (top & bottom) - $125.00 Shipped
2x SRT & N/A Coupe Upper Window/Door Seals - $200.00 For Both Shipped

Vince & Kristy
Thanks to all those who have looked and purchased items from us.
Just so everyone is clear on this, Crazy_V and Never_Satisfied registered and posted on RRTech rolling the EXACT SAME IP !!! It is very important that you remember that !!


Kindly read the thread that's been ongoing since January 2001, regarding Vincent Leonard Demers and Kristy Demers on RRTech. Some very informative reading...


Crazy_V & Never_Satisfied / Kristy & Vince Demers - SCAMMERS - RRTech...The SOURCE for Extreme Liquid Cooling

If a admin or moderator of this site would like proof of the IP that was used by Crazy_V or Never_Satisfied, on RRTech, PM me and I'd be more than happy to provide screenshots of the IP of each post made there. I also have IP logs of each and every time they have viewed RRTech.

I'll leave it at this point for now. If further evidence is needed, I'll be watching this thread or I believe you know now what forum I frequent.

I truly hope the ADMIN of this forum does the right thing and IP bans the scammers that WE have exposed here today. Good night and God bless.....

Something else that struck me as a tad strange....

I see the Vincent Leonard Demers (aka' Never_Satisfied) never posted a simple thank you in this thread.

What's even stranger to me is that no one has even questioned this until I just posted it....

The original post was by Rudy. Who has a a fairly strong following of friends and fans here with whom he is held in the highest repect.

As for Vince, many of us have met him and again, he is held in high regard

You sir ar a trool with nothing.

It would seem you could use some friends. There are plenty of us here eager to meet you. Perhaps you could ask you mommy if she will let you come out and play.

Franc, as sad as it is for me to say this, RedRaider isn't the troll, he's a very well respected member on rrtech and it is Vince (never_satisfied) that is the troll. Words really can't describe how I feel about all this but I know my heart hurts after being taken like I did and for the all the sleep I lost worrying about him and his family. Guess we'll have to see where all the stones lie after they've been thrown with this one.

I am sorry to hear that but I make no apologies. A simple statement would have sufficed,not a hatchet job.

Who ever researched and posted all the stuff in the thread spent a lot of time digging and must have had a real burn on. OK but... This wasn't the place for it.

As for your contribution here, words cannot describe my surprise. Having come so quickly to your defense was automatic. I did not consider a fact check neccesary.

Consider;
From my perspective, it was as though some stranger busted in my door bitching and screaming about my neighbor friend. I would slap him out of the house, without bothering to ask if it were true, simply over his bad manners.

So RedRaider deserves an apolgy...? Perhaps,,, at some point but for now. Our only impression of him is quite negative.

I know it's a lot to take in, in one read. I know some of you have spoken with these two, probably at great length and considered them as friends. At the end of they day they are just two bit scammers trying to run a con on unsuspecting forums, with their made up sob stories. PERIOD END OF STORY. It's truly a pathetic life they live. Laying lie over lie, about their fabricated life. When does it end? How can it end, for them? I know one thing for sure, the Demers' household will be in full DAMAGE CONTROL this morning! Can't wait to read the explanation for this one! Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.

very very interesting. For whatever reason, I think RedRaider did everyone a service here on this one. Rudy, don't take it so hard, your heart was in the right place right from the start. that's why they call people like this con artists, as in confidence artists. happens all the time. I've been known to get suckered in too, although to be honest I usually see it beforehand but my mind tends to reject that and then I fall for it.

again, and you can see by the threads here, the XF family is a great family and one that I'm proud to be affiliated with. To show the amount of caring all around that gets generated says volumes about the character, and the characters on this forum. Much much better than anywhere else I belong to. Great job boys and girls.

I sincerely hope that nobody on your forum got ripped off. That's what we are trying to avoid by informing you all. Vince and Kristy Demers have been at this game for quite some time now, and hop from forum to forum running their scams. The one constant that we've noticed is that they con members by gaining their sympathy after establishing themselves in the forum.

These people are the lowest form of life I've ever seen, and have no problem telling you they have a terminal illness/crippling injury to get your money. Whatever the story, it is usually the same song and dance. One of them is either seriously injured or ill, and they need to sell items that don't exist to pay the bills. What you can be sure of though, is that it is all a load of crap.

For those of you that have met them personally, Franc included, I feel sorry for you as well. Finding out that someone you considered to be a good friend is actually a low life con-man has got to suck.

Rudy, the only reason you posted what you did was because of information I passed along to you, from calls and PMs with Vince/Kristy. I was working with him on an exhaust and I knew you were trying to do business with him also, so I called you to see if you knew anything. My apologies for passing on bad info, but as we are all finding out, many of us have been duped.

I worked with Vince for weeks, talking with him very regularly to try and get this exhaust system from him. In his words, he was doing a Rudy V8 conversion and would not need it anymore, promised an amazing price to me, and then I find out, by talking to a friend, he had promised the same price to him. He told us it was because he had multiple units blah blah blah. Made it relatively believable, but then everything fell apart and he was 'critically injured'. I had my doubts, but....

Originally Posted by RedRaider

Question what? Without all the info you just presented, I would have looked like an ******* going after a serviceman who was injured while on law enforcement duty... yeah, good call.

I have to say thank you for confirming what I felt all along. I always felt Vince was a little off, and too young to have some of the toys he bragged about (modded brand new Z06 anyone), figured it was family money, but now this. I am not too surprised, but am awfully pissed. As Rudy said, we felt genuine pain for this man and his family, and the entire time, he was merely stringing us along. Sad and pathetic.
