What to do when scammed?

[jonersmack]

well it seems like hes getting away with it. I will file report with the RCMP but I am pretty sure they wont do anything about it, it wont be enough money for them to care. I have the scammers address and name but am pretty sure both are fake. so nothing really any of us can do. its a shame though, myself the op and another guy on here have all been scamed by this guy. at some point shouldnt it be worth the cops time?

If the three of you approached the RCMP together, I'm pretty sure they'll pay a bit more attention to the matter than going at it alone. There are likely others too.

People,

You need to be careful when dealing with newbies on the internet.
They are most likely to be a scammer than someone who has been here for a while, and has posts, and OTHER FEEDBACK.

Thread will now be locked,

OP contact the police, and file a report. Once you have all of the other info you can then use the template in the fraud section of the board, but only once you have ALL the required info.

I suggest that to anyone who has, and will be scammed by this guy in the future.

Pretty much covers it.

NAA.
