I'm not too certain, actually.

I'd think there's plenty to support a claim of wire fraud... bu we'd need to know who we're dealing with, and we'd need to know what jurisdiction to file in...

But yeah - Reporting this to your local authorities is a good first step - They can direct you from there.

Didn't read the whole thread - so maybe this has been discussed - but if the Paypal payment was made by CC, you should explore the option of a chargeback with your CC company.

It's a violation of TOS with Paypal, but it may be a worthwhile option if your card company is willing to work with you.

Excellent point!

Hopefully you don't have any money in your paypal account because doing this will permanently get your account "restricted"

Did anyone even call that number I provided?

If you do, be nice! Don't harass the person. The home owner probably has no idea what their tenant or son is doing.

when will scams end?? hope you guys recover the monies involved.but i will tell everyone this, anyone selling stuff and saying that he wants wire transfers, western union, or asks for payment to be sent as a gift, all it means is that you WILL be violated...lol.

i have found some really good deals and when payment methods were fishy, i will skip it in a heartbeat. keep your hard earned money before you shell it out on a scammer.

the guy who gave this scammer a heads up about this thread is an idiot and probably ruined it for everyone to get the chance on stoppin this dude.

i'm sure he saw all of this information he's given out to you guys, and changed it all asap.

stupid moron.

you can shut the f*** up. i have never met him and i would never steal from anyone. i do a ton of business online and would never help a scammer.

so, you can go ahead and send that $20 you lost to Fusion, because hes the one i was trying to help.

northwest nissan already seems like some shady s***.the whole forum.

i posted something up on there about this.a mod deletes it and says he do"esn't allow things like that to be posted.what the f*** is that s***?

mod says "use the iTrade rating system"wtf... what does that system matter if it's a local forum and they're scamming someone outside the state.

If that's how they''re gonna do things, perhaps a nice long boycott, organized on a LARGE forum, might get their attention.

I'm actually surprised that's the case, because the NWN crew has always seemed cool.

THIS is what a moderator has just told me...

We have some new mods we're breaking in, ill explain it to them.

This is not a classifieds rule, this is a rule we have had for a long time. I thought I would be nice and explain the situation without giving you an infraction seeing as you are new.

I'm sorry you don't like it but that's the fact. If you'd like to continue to argue about it, I will be forced to give you an infraction

and they never deleted the thread.and you should allow this "here" cuz that's a joke.i read the rules.and followed them.and now ur deleting my thread.

Quote:Originally Posted by GaelenTry the police.

We do not allow this hear sorry

Quote:Originally Posted by fusionr300zxso there's no way for me to find out information on $1100 that got taken from me from someone that's in the 240 scene in this area, or gethering information that could help me get my money back somehow.

Quote:Originally Posted by Gaelenit is not something we allow, you wont find any on here for the reason that that have done nothing but cause problems. We implimented to itrader application to get rid of threads exactly like that.

what i posted doesn't fall into ANY of those categories.i posted up a NAME that the seller gave ME.i didn't accuse anyone on the forum of it.

Quote:Originally Posted by GaelenQuote:Originally Posted by fusionr300zxQuote:Originally Posted by GaelenPlease do not make posts like that

Use the iTrader system we have in place.

Gaelenso u can't move the thread to wherever that is located for me?It's an internal system under each users name.

We do not allow threads like that sorry

Gaelen

and he gave me an infraction for arguing with him about it.

a few seconds before that some1 ont he forum PM'd me and said that some mods are friends with the "thompson" person on the forum and that they will do anything to cover up for him..

this is f***ing retarded.

sorry for the use of language but that's just f***ing dumb for a mod to delete my thread for that..

THIS NEXT PIC IS A PM FROM A MEMBER ON THE FORUM SAYING THAT SOME OF HIS FRIENDS ARE ADMINS/MODS AND HE HAS A LOT OF FRIENDS ON THE FORUM.



and that last one is pretty funny to me...because i NEVER posted a link of the person that was posted in this thread on nico to that mod and he is already telling me he has never heard of the person...kinda fishy/weird if u ask me..

he's never heard of WHO?i didn't tell him a name or give him a link.Hmm..
