Chargeback victim, if you live in Orlando you can have a free laptop

[Connor936]

I filed a complaint with the U.S. Postal inspection Service (basically the cops of USPS).  that is a good idea, i just thought the local police would laugh and just dismiss my complaint...none-the-less, i will try tomorrow. 

but i am still hoping for a bitcoin ninja/debt collector to come out of the wood works...there has got to be real life bullies that exist still ?  LoL

Hopefully you will end up with something more then a life lesion out of this, however I don't think you will. Law enforcement unfortunately does not have the resources to conduct a through investigation of crimes of this magnitude

[eoakland]

Police would actually investigate this if you reported it to them, if you talk to the right cop they'll have someone on the scammer's doorstep the same day.

I once won a $400+ charge back thanks to the police, they put the scammer under house arrest a few hours after I reported him, and then he called me up begging to pay.

The funny thing is after all that I lost the chargeback case itself, cause credit card companies suck, but the scammer sent me a moneypak so it ended up fine.

I am glad you got your money back.  i am sure your case is one of the few that ends well for the seller.  it's crazy how seller's are NOT protected with paypal at all.  paypal charges all of those fees and for what..to line their pockets ? 

come'on cyber thugs.....ddos that cocksucker jack up his credit.  LoL

It's always good to have friends in all kinds of positions.

This is one of those times when it comes in handy to have a police friend.

eoakland probably doesn't have a police friend but maybe someone here could introduce one to him  

I have cop friends but I don't live in the US.

Good luck!

Call the local police and file charges for felony level interstate fraud.

This is the appropriate action. Results will come from this.

I personally don't think anything would come of this if the police were called. The police likely do not have jurisdiction over where the scammer lives and it would be argued that the crime was committed where the scammer lives. Additionally the amount in question is very little and most police forces do not have the resources to be investigating crimes of this magnitude (or lack thereof).

I wish it was not this way, but I am just giving my opinion.

Someone secretly film this, whoever does this. That would be hilarious!

There is small claims court as well.
Sue him in Cali, he'll never appear, win the judgment and file liens.

Realistically, this is dangerous for anyone who decides to try and get the laptop. He's in Florida, if you were on his property and he shot you there wouldn't be much of a case against him.

That's not how Castle Doctrine works*.

*when it's white people on your doorstep.

that's why the ambush needs to happen off of his property.  lol  i am joking.  i don't expect anyone to threaten the guy or show up on his doorstep.  but perhaps a phone call here and there from a local number, a letter from a local address would make that coward think twice about doing this to someone else.

You have proof that you send the laptop so why paypal does not protecting you

short answer, paypal sucks cock   anyone who has had any sort of dealings with paypal finds our the hard way that paypal does jack shit to protect the seller.  in fact they assist the scammer so much that paypal must get a percentage from each scam

I did try call Florida police after a Spyro Kopreos from Pensacola Florida scammed me on Ebay.
US police is shit to be honest they refused to take a report on the telephone.
What am i supposed to do!? Buy a airline ticket and fly there!?
So i mailed him almost 1 pound of marijuana that had budrot and was unsmokeable
No vacuum no nothing just straight down into a mailing bag.
That way i think he got attention of the police anyway..

this is comical.  thank you i needed a good laugh.  sadly thought i bet the gift you sent him arrived unnoticed by any authorities. 

it's depressing how Paypal still allows this person (and other scammers) to buy/sell on paypal with no ramifications.

If you have a chargebaack it could be a stolen account or credit card, that usually happens.  This is why is good to call the people about orders

naw, it's the dude that ordered it.  he filed twonot as described claims (and his card charged it off) he was supposed to ship it back.  he must work for BFL, he is a true cocksucker.
