Check has been desposited but I''m having almost as much fun with my bank as I have had with RTF. The money has been released to me as there is enough money in my account to cover it and I''m in good standing with my bank, however my manager has said it could take up to 90 days to be certain the cheque had cleared. I"ve asked her to check on this and give me a 100% answer either way. In retrospect I should have just driven to NY and cashed it at a chase bank directly. I would have thought it would be easy for my bank to confirm the cashiers check, but they said they use a 3rd party to handle their international checks and it's not as easy as a phone call. Bla bla bla. I've elevated things at my bank.

"Good morning, sorry for just getting back to you I was away ,came back yesterday, I tried calling the bank the representative I spoke with was not very helpful they would not release any information to me regarding the draft, this would be the only option from our end to assist. I have seen these cheques before from the look of the image cheque it seems ok to me."
Well guys, this is the message we've been waiting for. From my bank manager:
"Hi Jason,
I was able to confirm the cheque for you; all is well good the cheque is cleared. Hope this will be of help to you."
This nightmare is finally over!
I really want to thank all of you for your support over this ordeal. Clearly I was unable to make any headway on my own, and it was the pressure put on these clowns from you and the guys over at rennlist that made this happen. For that I am forever greatful. If any of you find yourselves in TO fire me a PM and I'll buy you a beer.
But more importantly this and the thread on the other site unveiled a lot of ugly truths about this company, and as a group we have dealt what I hope is a death blow to the company. However I have a feeling scum like these guys always find a way to survive and screw people over in some
other way. Hopefully no-one from Our forums will ever have to deal with these guys again. For the guys still in a battle with them, good luck getting your money back, and if you can't, please be safe and understand the risk that driving on these may pose. If I can be of any support in any way let me know.
Lastly, a special nod to Gary. Your work on this has been unbelievable. Keep it going!
I would watch out for Race Tech Forged as well. I called and spoke with Raz who uses a voip exchange. He had advertised specials for the the holidays with shipments by December 18th. When I called he stated it may take a little longer. Raz sent an incorrect order form from his accountant Carl. After making several corrections he asked that i pay via cash at wells fargo. I instead paid by pay pal.
Here is where it got shady. I made a payment to RTF at the email for their business acount per their instructions. Raz immediately called to apologize and stated that due to the previous owner no longer being around they did not have access. calling Pay pal as well as RTF calling pay pal I received a refund due to Raz's inability to get the money. They even tried to set up a RTF email at gmail but it was linked to the same RTF business account which was frozen.
I reached out and spoke with Gary as well and at that point we chatted about the hustle. I even shared emails.
Rennlist should have taken other complaints more seriously. There other threads that had red flags, most of which have been taken down. My guess is there is no money to sue Raz for and he will disappear and pop up under a different name.
