kintaro Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I've been doing some digging. May I suggest that you try calling your bank, and asking them to reverse the payment. Explain that it was payment for goods and that they've not arrived. Your bank may be able to help you here. i'll do it first thing in the morning.

Guest george.kokovinis Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 What this man says! +1. I will second that. As for the bank. I am in the financial world. Stock broker and economist. If the money that went thru PayPal came from a deposit account, the bank can't do anything. If the money came from a credit card, a simple letter to the bank is enough to have the bank at least alert PayPal that there is fraud here. Obligatory is that the bank issued the card. Big problem is that the transaction took place not as a commercial deal but as a friend to friend ( without PayPal fees ), making it harder to prove the fraud. In any case it is worth trying, although I must say that chances are extremely slim for any success. Oh my... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TASOS Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 If things go wrong , all the way ... and the seller wont conform at the end. Then , things get really simple.

Names Addresses Copy of the add in this forum Copies of pm's and e-mails Copy of financial transaction File a case Electronic crime Mr.Sfakianakis Let the Interpol do the rest. I am afraid it is not that simple Tasos. The fraud is unsubstantiated. There is no official electronic transaction crime ( on paper at least ). Vangelis ( Kintaro ) paid with the "friends and family" option. This is not an electronic sale. As a lawyer would say, private messages and e-mails and the rest, are a STRONG indication, but not proof of a crime ( fraud ). We are all extremely willing to help, but facts are facts, and Kintaro's action to send money this way, was catastrophic. The cheap scum bug, exposed himself for pocket change. He is not only a thief, he is a cheap thief and an idiot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumper118 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) Wow. Last online today. I think I need to PM an admin. I don't have trading post access there, do you?

Guest TheMadDutchDude Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 He has 18 positive feedback on another forum and all of the buyers seem happy. It's a shame that he decided to do this to himself. I know someone who knows the admin of OcUK so he won't be selling for much longer. I shall follow up on your PM too, Nick.

ObscureParadox_3XS Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Recent eBay feedback for him is a bit shabby. I'll try and get the word spread around as many forums as I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheMadDutchDude Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Another two forums have been notified with thanks to Gavin and Nick for the assistance. Thank you, Lewis. Dewi showed me his recent eBay sales and his recent feedback suggests that he hasn't sent any of the goods. Utterly appalling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumper118 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 this guy was selling this board the other day on ebay. i was watching it! he aid it didn't work and he even sent me a picture of the socket when i asked. not sure whether i am allowed to post the link but the item number on ebay was 141666356183 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheMadDutchDude Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I'm confused as to why it is now listed in USD. He lives in Bilston, or very near to it. That's also a different board. Let me have a word with the powers above me and get this resolved. In any case, this can now be closed. Anthony shall no longer be with us.
