Well glad everyone is getting their money back. I give him no excuses, he is useless. We definitely put the fear of god in him, no doubt. I'm just glad this is behind us and we have all learned a lesson from this. In the future just cover your six, so to speak. Get more than just a couple of positive feedbacks and a PM. Ask for photos and stuff, just like eBay. As long as members can see B&S on FM without having to pay to be a member, these scum bags will always come around.
If anyone hasn't received their money and needs any info on him, let me know. Otherwise, glad it has all worked out in the end. Though I had to pay $100 to rent a body from a local place while he played the game with me.
I stayed calm, said I'd see you soon and after that, his whole attitude changed. Oh and I'm the one he prank called, but I could hear his little punk friends in the background. I know he was just trying to get me going but in the end, I think he knew we were serious.

Fear is a great motivator. I agree that it made a huge difference in this situation. So thanks to all that contributed and made this possible.
Triet, sorry to hear and I'm sorry I have him the benefit of the doubt. He has a few other aliases, someone will be on shortly to provide more insight.

hmm and Intelius search on his name and GA, comes up empty. Where in GA?
I believe it's Forest Park, GA. I wired my money to an account in that city.
How did you guys get his name though?
Cause he was dumb enough when he was honest to provide his DL. Once he scammed a few lens rentals companies, they came together and figured it out. Apparently the police will NOT act on it though, not sure why. He is 17.
I have to make a trip to GA soon, I guess it's a good thing I got my cash back.
Got my money back from paypal as well. If he's scammed other's before I hope he gets caught and arrested. I've been scammed from a car shop before and it sucks when people take your hard earned money and just get away with it.

Thank you pubtime for your information. I still wonder how you got that much information on him?
Should I be waiting for his 5D II? I kinda think he did not send the gear out as promised. Or even if he did, that might have been the stolen one.. That would be a really tough call.

I would like to know because the only connection I show to any "Sims" or "Simms" is this address from another board.

It would be good for rental places to post heads-up on known cases to help others, but I assume legal has recommended against it for both court action and libel risk.
