Isn't what he did a felony because it amounts to over $1,000?

I think it's insane because what he took is a large amount of money to most people.

I'm not sure if he violated any federal laws but I'll check. I'm not too sure about this situation because op sent it as a gift and all.

It's rare to see someone who is running a business of scamming people so flamboyant with the tracks they leave behind. The guy has an Instagram, Facebook and even has his girl and even has pics with both of their license plate numbers showing which regular traffic cams can easily pickup and ID him. If he's trying to be a criminal he's not being a very smart one. They'll catch his *** if enough of the people that got scammed by him put pressure on taking him to court.

Even regular people on here can easily find him with just the info we have so far.

I think that the method of sending a money (like wire transfer or other) is irrelevant.
I can proof with messages, that we had an agreement and the sent money (as it was in the Paypal message box) was for the Vortech V3 kit.
BTW I need to contact with a lawyer, but I'm full of work and I think that to sue somebody in the USA from here won't be a cheap trick.

To be fair his business is no more then a garage in his mothers house lol.

I also think it's funny how easy it was to find him. Plus he and his GF post their license plates online. This will help for sure and hopefully deter any other potential victims. I agree this situation is difficult because it was sent as a gift, of which I'm sure the seller pushed for.

He has no business ethics based on how he conducted himself in the past. Although I'm unsure why he wasn't flagged back then.

I wish you the best of luck, my friend. Paypal is impossible to work with, even if you're in the right. The fact that you sent it as a gift makes it that much worse...You may never get that money back. This is exactly why I look up the name, address, phone number, usernames, facebook, etc. before doing any kind of business with someone. Good luck, but you may have to chalk this one up to the POS scammer Best thing would be to report it to the credit card company as fraud and let them investigate. PayPal investigations are a joke.

Good work. The more we dig up on this scammer the better we can help other members prevent making the same mistakes as the OP.

My thoughts, exactly. You have his information. A plane ticket to NJ is no more than $200. I'd be at this guy's doorstep faster than he could spend the money.
