omegaunit Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Unreal... There has to be a way to track this guy. Maybe the 7 guys that got scamed should compare phone numbers used to contact the seller, with any luck maybe a home phone was used at one point.

ExtraExtra Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 If you have his name and address, call the nearest local police station and report it. Provide with much details. I think and correct me if I am wrong that his fall under mail fraud. If they catch him soon enough, they may just find your cash with him too.

triplehd Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Working with DVN offline to capture additional info. Will then call my cousin who is a Milwaukee police officer to see if he can assist. BTW - my cousin is a hard-ass (in a good way), so if he can do something, believe me, he will. Ill keep ya updated.

dvn Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I don't think so. I think he got away with it too. I am mad but I could not do anything about it. My bank could not get the money back for me neither. I heard one of the victim Is a vp of bank and he could not do anything about it.

mastrmindalliance Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Well, if you can't get your money back perhaps it's time to take an pound of flesh? Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 First thing I would have done is get together with the other 6 guys that got scammed. $1800 is nasty but maybe not enough to get serious action from the law but $12,600 is serious crime. If nothing else 7 guys (each with a couple of friends) knocking on your front door is going to cause a serious rethink in his get rich quick scheme. ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnipz Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 (edited) Ya it sucks when you pay money and dont receive anything, or when you receive something crappy not as pictured, which may as well be the same thing in my book. I'm sorry for you guys. Hope you can at least do something about it. Edited March 19, 2011 by turnipz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tech Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 this is also being reported by a gent over on TRF in the Omega section. I hope this gets resolved for the gents that got swindled.... did TZ really take the thread down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
