Well from what PayPal told me i am not getting my money because ether he was using some once account other then his to pay for these coral and the address did not match so the money is back in that persons account and i am out corals and money. The only way is he needs to send me a Money Order but that does not look very good he has not called or PM me back scent's Tuesday and he has my Phone number to. Local Police told me to call the state Police and talk to Home Land Security Internet Dept and so i called and left a message and waiting on call still. But in a email to his Hot mail account i told him he had till they called to take care of this and clear this up or i was going to file a report with them and get the ball rolling on this i am so mad at this point.




Wow... This really sucks. Somehow, I'm still shocked every time I read about something like this happening, even though I had someone steal several frags from me in a trade that they never followed through on (completely different forum). Hearing what my wife deals with at work in terms of theft hasn't made me numb to this sort of the thing yet either somehow. The nerve of some people, taking advantage of other hobbyists just to fill their tanks with more coral.

I sincerely hope this is just some weird misunderstanding and that it really does pan out that you get paid for what you sent.

Did a little checking and ATL might not be the best place to look for this guy?

Was the address you shipped to in ATL? His IP is resolving to:

State/Region: Washington
City: Oak Harbor

Sound like a hacker got into someones pc and placed the order and payed with there stuff... Not sure who you sent the corals to... It could be him or a friend... Most likely it's a friends house so he can't be tracked...

No more selling to anyone with such a low post count anymore for me. At least without a few extra precautions....

We are a very hot trail right now so stay tuned! We know who you are!

The i-trader should be very important during these times...
