He might have blocked you from his Facebook page but not us. Post his address as well as phone number. Let him hear from a few of us.

I am going to talk to the local Police and see what they have to say....and I will wait a week or so and see what his parents do.  If his parents have no positive influence on him, then likely they either don't care or have lost the ability to reason with him and keep him honest.

I am not yet ready to post his contact information or name, I want to give his parents a chance first.

I will post his name soon however - so that none of you might fall into one of his scams.

If a M.O. is drawn on the U.S Post Office, It would be a Federal offense, and with filing appropriate paperwork, It is Mail Fraud. And all sorts of, 'lettered', agencies can get involved.

(Of course, don't know, what priority the current POTUS, has put to it.)

A, M.O. from ANY other place, if you don't get what you bought, you are S.O.L.

Most mail fraud allegations never even get investigated unfortunately, and one for $75 would most likely make the bottom of the pile    definitely not the angle to go at it.

I just talked to the local Police Chief......jurisdiction is a real problem on the internet.  I work in Wilder, who knows where PayPal is located, my bank is in another City....the recipient is in another state. So.....the local authorities can't do much.

There is a place I found that you can report mail (wire) fraud, and it appears that internet fraud is applicable.  It does appear that the cases that get reviewed and enforcement action is when there are multiple reports and the authorities believe it is worth looking into.

I have not heard from his parents.....so I guess they are not surprised that their son is a thief.

I will be posting in the Classified Section on the 250 Riders Forum....and see if anyone else was scammed.

Dave,
Post a craigslist ad (will they let you post hings like that?) in those areas with his name and what he did.  Surely an ex girlfriend or someone else he has cheated or scammed would like to see him in trouble. Offer to split the $75 with them if their information helps you recover the $75.

Sold a Colt, 1911, (A Auction).
It was one of the 4,000 they made.
It was a, REPRODUCTION, of the original 1914 one.
It was NIB and photos, CLEARLY SHOWED, the RED,  Tag on the firearm,
stating CLEARLY,   “ REPRODUCTION”,  
Other photos, CLEARLY, showed the, ‘white’ box.
The Ser number was, CLEARLY, Listed, and it was:   “WWI xxxx”.

The, ‘buyer’ from calf, said, this was represented as a, ‘original’ WW1 firearm in NIB condition.
(And the CC Company, actually was so clueless they believed him)

It was NOT, in Any Way Shape or form!

Sold it for 1,400.00.
If it was a, ‘Original’ 1914 one, and NIB, it would have been, 25,000.00.

Yet the CC company,  REFUNDED, this persons money.
1. On the basses she did not understand WWI, was NOT, called WWI, till AFTER, WWII.
   (WWI, was called,  ’The Great War”,  BEFORE  WWII)
Or.  2. She just didn’t like firearms.

End result, got it back, NOT IN PRISTINE SHAPE,
Sold it for 900.00.  (Had 1,000.00 into it)
and 6 months of, F*&#’ing around with a female, who did NOT know,
WWI, [i](or did not care), was,  BEFORE, WWII.[/i]

75.00 bucks.  Yea,  Do  EVERYTHING, you can do.
to upset this,  DFI SCAMMER’s  Life.
Maybe, just maybe,  the Spammer will learn.
