Got scammed need help.....

[Axxis]

Alright so I sell this guy a V1 radar for $420 shipped. He found me on ebay, and we did the deal without ebay. He sent me a check (even though i asked for a MO) and I waitied for it to clear. I looked at my banking online and they added it with no problem. Then, I went ahead and shipped it out. Now, I look at my banking online and they deducted -$420 from my account. So in other words, I just got scammed dirty. So now what? I DID insure it with USPS for $400. That can be choice 1, or I can fly out there.. which is choice 2. Hes located in TROY NY 12180. Im getting the address tommorrow.. so any ideas on what to do? cause this guy is not getting away with this.

[Axxis]

1st thing tommorrow I am headed over to the bank.

[SEXICÄN]

contact usps and see if you can gety the money. If not, i would, like you are already doing, get his address and either go get your sh*t back or bring police into things. Sometimes police help out better

[foofighter]

USPS might be able to stop the delivery...you have tracking right? if so that would be easier for them to track and stop

[Axxis]

it has been delivered.. Thats why he some how deducted his money back! How he did that, dont know. But tommorrow the bank better have a reason.

I didnt even know that can happened. I thought that once the check was in and it was cleared then its mine.

[SEXICÄN]

that sh*t is messed up. i hope get either your money back or the V1

[Axxis]

just got off the phone with the bank... the check went in threw the system.. was cleared and then once they went to take out money.. it deducted out of my account, and the item shipped. F**ken bank says they cant do anything... damnnn running out of ideas

[Boba Fett]

How did your bank add $420 then deduct it? I don't understand.

They say hindsight is always 20/20, but you should never accept check from people you don't know or fully trust.

[Axxis]

1st and last time man.

I asked that same question. She said that it was cleared and when the time came to get the money from this pricks account there was none. Screw customer support. Im there 1st thing tommorrow.

[JMG]

[Monchichi8]

Exactly. Next time I'd just go to his bank (hopefully they have a chain near you) and cash it. Done.

[OverSpun]

if you go after him.. remember what we learned in jersey, the guys a asshole with a fugazi ratbox.

[dukez]

You got his address, send him a "special" package now. You know what im talking about.

[npb]

I used to work at a bank, if you have any questions about the procedure, PM me. I'd be glad to help if I can.

[A4Kevin]

Drive a brick through his side window and get your V1 back.

[Live2Ski]

Sorry to hear about this bro. Please keep us updated on how this turns out.

[EVIL-AUDI]

Come to Jersey first, pick up Yellow and I , then we shall go get the $$$$.

[Kirath]

I don't get banks. I'd yell at the bank some more. Make them own up or go after his account again for the money.

[/\G]

Euro Addict lives up there doesnt he? Send over the Boobies to get the V1

[Wholsea]

Sounds like you got pwn3d.

You have his address, call the local police...

I believe he could be charged with mail fraud, sending bogus checks through the mail, etc...

I know a guy who got pwn3d by some guy in NYC for a Honda motor he sold him. The guy chickened out on the money but kept the motor. They drove all the way to NYC from Ohio, went to this guy's house, and held him there until the 5.0 arrived. w00t. He got pwn3d!

[Axxis]

Post office says I need to wait the 14 days 1st b 4 I claim anything. Maybe this guy sends it.. maybe not..

[A4_Andre]

[foofighter]

banks "sponser" the money in the mean time the bank attempts to collect the sponsered funds from issuer account if the money isn't collect form issuers bank then check will not clear and sponsered money is reversed.
