HELP!.....WARNING

[Andrew Lundy]

Stay away from Robert Hack!!!!  I also frequent a 928 forum and his name comes up ALL THE TIME.  He continually rips people off on 928 parts.  This is the first time I've seen him working with Audi's.  Maybe the 928 world is starting to learn his ways and he is moving over to Audi's.

Consider yourself warned!!  You should post his Ebay name so others know who they shouldn't buy from!!

    Thank you so much for your replies. I now find myself embroiled in something of a saga. It seems I have purchased a chip from a fraudulent vender on ebay, a guy called Robert Hack (aptly named?). He had claimed in the auction that this was a chip removed from a MAC-11 ECU programed by Ned Ritchie. He assured me (a HUGE believer in Murphy's Law) that the chip would run in any MAC-11. I just talked to Ned himself on the phone - Ned claims 1.) Never to have heard of Mr. Hack, and 2.) the chip MUST be used in the MAC unit from which it was removed. This all makes better sense now, since the chip itself was utterly virgin - no desoldering evidence at all. My attempts to revisit the ebay auction, #576199778, are now fruitless, as it seems Mr. Hack has deftly covered his tracks!
    Have you ever heard of a similar story? I am quite confounded, besides now having a broken Audi!

    Thanks very much,
