finding Mark Shackelford
First of all to everyone of you who have been conned in some way or fashion by this idiot, I know how you feel.... I am his ex-wife and was conned for 11 years.
I was given the heads-up on this site today and read back on all the scams regarding the 928 manuals and that's unfortunately not surprising. He also used to sell digital cameras and other strange odds and ends on ebay and is apparently now dabbling in 928 stuff and cessna parts.
He makes ripping off people his hobby/career. As far as I know he is unemployed and financing pilot school somewhere in Florida by his scams and conning women to pay his way.
What I would like from all you very helpful people is finding out where he is: address, anything.... so I can try and collect the last 6 months child support from this deadbeat.
My gift to all of you trying to find him is this: He will be at the Crowley Court House in Dallas Texas court #10 Tuesday Jan 7th at 9 a.m. for a trial for violating a protective order against me a year ago. I know some of you guys who were scammed were posting from Dallas, so I hope to see you all there.
And by the way, the number that was listed in Dallas is his parent's number (they're just as bad). HOWEVER, another gift to you all - the idiot's Florida cell phone number: 954-336-0287
Regards,
SOOOO Glad To Be His Ex In Texas

Hey Joli, that sounds like the title of a movie, don't it? Thanks for helping the lads out.
Now, the greatest gift would be to share some sultry pics of the smart lass that kicked his sorry a$$ to the curb (yes, we're a wascally bunch here <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" /> ).

Jesper,
Thanks for coming forward as I don’t envy the position you find yourself presently in.
Mark Shackelford took advantage of myself personally and that of several other individuals who share a simple passion of 928 ownership. Unfortunately, the Shackelford incident is not an isolated event as I’ve experienced another. Prior concerns/ideas were previously posted concerning this issue of fraud and we’ve made some headway, especially due to John and Randy of Rennlist however, the issue at hand IE: “Deadbeat Sellers” although not a topic about horsepower or girl photos, is an issue that needs to be addressed again fastidiously within the Rennlist board at some point. Perhaps we could possible re-visit earlier ideas about dealing with fraud issues and devise a plan. A fraud filing procedure which I would be happy to investigate (lawyer types want to help?) and that information inserted within the “A new visitor post” text. I realize Rennlist is not only a forum for 928 owners, but also other Porsche models and perhaps a more appropriate place for this information would be upon the main site page…I don’t know?
For now though our options are limited. However Jesper, I would think yours are not.
The addition of “Dead Beat Dad” to Mark’s moniker comes as no surprise. Assuming you have a lawyer, his court date should provide you with an opportunity to sever him w/ additional papers for child support and/or other charges depending upon the verbiage written within your divorce agreement. Some states, violating TRO or PO are felonies. Texas law defines a protective order as a civil court order and when violated can be fined and/or punishable as written if judged so;
<a href="http://www.oag.state.tx.us/victims/protective.htm" target="_blank">State of Texas Protective Orders</a>
[quote]“If an offender violates the order and law enforcement is notified, officials will act to arrest the offender and seek to have charges filed. If a person violates the protective order in the presence of law enforcement, the offender must be arrested immediately. In cases involving the violation of a protective order, including an ex parte order, the offender may be punished for contempt of court by a fine of as much as $500 or up to six months in jail or both. In cases of violation, excluding ex parte orders, the offender may be punished by a fine of as much as $4,000 or jail for up to one year or both”
<hr></blockquote>
Providing Mark Shackelford meets A.G.O. guidelines as a Child Support Evader, you may post/list his information and photo with the Texas “Office of the Attorney General’s” Child Support Evader’s web site I’ve listed below.
<a href="http://www.oag.state.tx.us/child/mainchil.shtml#license" target="_blank">Texas Att. General's Child Support Services Office</a>
Office of the Attorney General's Child Support Program toll-free at 1-800-252-8014 for additional information.
[quote]For a parent to be listed as a Child Support Evader, the following conditions must be met:
·Court-ordered delinquent support must be in excess of $5,000,
·An arrest warrant must have been issued,
·The location of the non-custodial parent must be unknown,
·The non-custodial parent must not have made any payments in the last six months,
·The non-custodial parent must not be involved in bankruptcy proceedings or receiving welfare benefits, and the custodial parent must sign a confidentiality waiver allowing certain case information to be made public<hr></blockquote>
We as Rennlisters would also be happy to view his picture of course.
Licenses suspension for both private and professionally held is also an option warranting your further investigation in regards to his latest endeavors in Florida.
Texas law states;
[quote]"LICENSE SUSPENSION. The License Suspension law, effective September 1, 1995, allows custodial parents or their attorneys, certain agencies, and the Office of the Attorney General's Child Support Division to petition for the suspension of a license issued by an agency of the State or political subdivision of the State when past due child support is owed and no attempt is being made to pay it. Professional and occupational licenses as well as personal and commercial driver licenses, and many other licenses, are subject to the statute”<hr></blockquote>
For a small fee, I would think a hired investigator would be able to track him through several avenues such as charge card transactions, cell phone usage and by calling various flight schools within his suspected Florida residency for enrollment status.
Please don’t misunderstand my comments as I appriciate your posting updated information regarding our fraud issues w/ Mark Shackelford however, I believe you’re in a better position to nail him down than anyone here that’s been personally effected by his actions.
Please keep us posted.

Tim, (et al),
Thanks for the comments and replies.
Yes, I am in a fairly good position relatively speaking, however, you wouldn't believe the uphill battle I've faced trying to
A). Get away from this guy
B). Battle in court constantly for more than a year
C). Go at it alone.
This guy is slick as black ice and it will take each and every person out there who can add fuel to the fire to bring him down. My battle gets very tough going it alone, but the more I hear about people he has scammed, the more I hope he will have stacked against him. The odds just have to be against him. The DA gave me the word that our trial will go on Tuesday - I'll certainly let you all know how it goes....

Jesper: Thanks for the phone number in FL. I will add it to my complaint just filed with ifccfbi.gov on internet fraud. I also hope to hear any updates on the court appearance. Wishing you the best.

Good God this guy is like a cockroach in every sense of the word. We should collectively contact his competition and share his past history. I know he wrote a hot check for 6K to a local Porsche dealer.......and another shop. I'll forward this info to the people I know at both places. let them do with it as they see fit.
