you kow what iVanPK... as easy as that sounds it might be worth a shot as I know if my kids ripped someone off I would make it right myself. if he has parents like that then it would work w/o any contact info cant even try

Yup, I would at least do that, call his parents. I would also call the local police and get some advice from them.
It totally bums me out that you guys got scammed by this punk.
Don't let it go, pursue pursue.........

Time to call Guido and Rocco, do some knee busting. lol

On the other hand, they say he's 15 years old and obviously living with mom and pop so he's probably not going anywhere.
All that being said, you did a stellar job. The power of friends. Let's hope he gets what he deserves and Neo can try to get his money back.
No need to PM. I read it. Nice work MMi. Together we can stop this punk and show scammers that we will find them, so they best avoid us!

I thought you have to be 18 or older to sign up for paypal and if your under 18, you need some kind of permission slip from parents to be faxed to paypal for approval. Well, I know all this because I was ripped off by a member on Ebay who is only 13. He was selling me a Nintendo DS and package never came and he lives in NJ. He provided me tracking number but the tracking number always shown up as if you just mailed this package, please allow a day for the info to come up from USPS. It was a whole month with the tracking number he provided me and no package. I didnt bother driving up there to get him. I filed a report with the cops and filed a dispute. Luckily I got my money back within 2 weeks. I conferenced call with the cop who is in charge of my situation and Paypal to get the kid info. I got his full number and called his parents up. Im pretty sure that his parents kicked his butt for it. If I were you, I will conference call with the cops and paypal for his full address and phone number.

How would I go about doing that. Would I file a report with the police first or just instantly set up the conference call. I would just like to know the steps that you took so that I can make sure that I can the same results.

this happened like 6 months ago. I bought a new Nintendo DS from this seller who is 13. He provided me a fake tracking number after I paid him with paypal. I waited for a whole month and I filed a dispute. We keep emailing each other and he stated he mailed it and the tracking number was from the USPS and the site keeps saying no such tracking number or if you recently mailed the item, it will come up the next business day. It was like that for a whole month. I recieved my money back from paypal but I still filed a report with a police in the station. I printed out the ebay auction site and payment through paypal. The name on ebay is fake and so does the number because I was comparing the info from ebay and paypal. Totally different names and address. So I provided all that information to the cops. I had like 6 papers handed to the cops such as the auction on ebay + payment using paypal + emails + the address and phone number from ebay and paypal. Total of 6 papers. I also provided the number to paypal and I asked the cops to do the conference call when Im here because paypal refuse to provide me that info. After i verified my account info, they want to speak to the police named Mark Lee and we were in the three way call. Police Mark Lee sorta threaten Paypal that even though the claim was recieved back but we need to know who is the person and he had two names and two different address + phone numbers. Mark requested a supervisor. Paypal put a supervisor on the phone and spoke with me and Mark. He was more experienced and understood my situation because there is negative balance on his account. Paypal stated that the kid turned 13 and father will pay full responsibility if anything happens. That explained everything. Under Ebay, the kid used fake name and address but on paypal, he used his father name and cc: his name + address he is living in and phone number. We asked paypal to conference call to the father with us on the line. We reached the father at home and told him what happen. He stated his child is in school and we told him to login to his paypal and noticed the negative balance. Father stated the kid doesnt have a Nintendo DS and he only had the old nintendo system. Paypal asked him to fix the negative balance and Mark asked him to take his son to the local police station to file a report and tell the father to watch over the kid and stop using somebody's name to do scams. There is a legal action for a kid age of 13 and the parent.. I am sure the father will spank the hell out of the kid because when his father saw the balance of the paypal account, he was cursing over phone and we heard it.

Step 1: Go to police station with all the info you have.
Step 2: Asked the police to conference call with Paypal
Step 3: If paypal giving you a hard time, request a supervisor
Step 4: Call the parents.

Neo and DeLeon, I hope this helps. Go to the police to file a report and they will go look for the kid as long is not outside of U.S.

Neo and DeLeon, before you go to the cops, PM me

And add the member Musad to the list of those who have been scammed. I'll help you guys out all I can with nabbing this guy.


Second Update: I called his local Police Department, an officer will be calling me back. Will update as I talk to him.

Third Update: I spoke with the officer and gave him the IP of the user and all we know. Nothing in the registry so this will be a first offense on him.
To all those who have been scammed: Police Statements with all your information, claims on losses, ect. Should be sent to 4700 Neptune Road, St. Cloud, FL 34769. NeoNightmare, I recommend also including the information I PM'd you.

I've done about all I can, good luck all

It's a stereotype against anyone who lives in Massachusetts. We are viewed by visitors as extremely aggressive drivers and a**holes, so we were dubbed the name Massholes.

So he's basically caught? And is that him in that Flickr account? Hahaha that sucks.

Look at all the stuff you can find on this idiot just by googling his email.
His cell phone number: 407-288-3330
His myspace http://www.myspace.com/kevinconeil
Apparently he use to cut himself
Haha him photoshopping some kids report card?

*facepalm* scammers never put out your personal information, be smarter then a caveman.
