If you can find him selling on ebay you could win his auction then request his details have you tried googling his usernames to see what pops up

You will now notice aswell that he has deleted ALL his photos but if you right click where the pics used to be you will see the properties.

right .. if you have been involved in this no matter how long ago report it to the local police or here...
http://www.nafn.gov.uk/index.asp?Bod...nt=ReportFraud

the more people who report it the better the chance this person can be tracked down and then dealt with legally rather than someone taking the law into their own hands of which we do not condone...
if you feel you need to circulate this information about this user to other websites then please feel free to do so as there might be more people in your situation who have no idea they might be getting ripped off ...

we as moderators and admin on passionford will forward anylogs we have to any police investigation.. also the isp's have been contacted with all information needed to help in any investigation...

i spoke to him breifly about parts(just by pm not in person)
i asked where he was to collect them,
he said he's away up in glasgow,
ideal i said i'm in glasgow too
never got a reply after that
never thought it was fishy until now
just assumed he had sold them to somebody else
was a rear big disc kit he had for sale i think

it is sad that people do this and it just makes it harder for the honest people that are selling , when i brought my pistons i sent money in a envolpe well 2 envolopes recorded now i know thats a real bad idea but the parts turned up before the letter had been signed for so he trusted me too but now i would never think of doing that now a days . same as when i did my zetec engine i brougt a head and that was sent out to me before i had sent payment . but these were trusted members that had been around ages
