I've received a response. The WA Police are waiting on some information on a couple of accounts they believe TF uses. If it is confirmed TF resides in NSW then the NSW Police will take over the investigation. Does anyone have any further information on TF's identity such as mobile number, DOB, home address, anything? It is also possible that BTC may not be seen as a legitimate currency that can be stolen in the eyes of the law, obviously if that happens then we're all screwed

Things other than currency may be stolen. In the UK, for example, cars may be stolen, but they are not considered currency.

So just sue him in The Netherlands or somehow use those decisions against him.

I think when BTC hits 10k USD this particular BTC theft story is going to be one to watch!

FYI guys I've still been following up on this. The police are still waiting for responses from their inquiries (not uncommon apparently, especially when dealing with PayPal) and are relying on interstate and international resources as they don't believe TF resides in this country. I've been told it's a low priority case and to 'remain patient'. I'll be contacted if there's any development and will pass the info on.

Is this lawsuit actually still happening? I read several pages ago in the thread that Australian litigation funders aren't likely to fund this given the circumstances of what happened.
