eBay scammer, a LONG read

You won't get about 1/3 of the way through this before you would want to kill the guy.

A guy and his wife in Philly scammed a bunch of people on laptops they were selling on eBay.
Money sent, no laptop arrives, pathetic story which goes all over the place.

Too long to post directly, here's the link for it:

People who do this kind of thing always get caught at some point. Always. They're never smart enough to get away with fraud. That's why the word "fraud" exists. If anyone ever got away with it, no one would ever know anything was wrong and we wouldn't have laws about it.

Edit: I hate it when people are dumb enough to talk smack back and forth with these kinds of people. Making threats and trying to strike deals with them is not the way to go. I had a guy try to scam me on EBay three or four months ago.

I was going to buy a set of Klipsch computer speakers from him, and he turned out to be a con. He demanded money, threatening to leave negative feedback otherwise. I responded by informing him that I was ready and willing to bring the case straight to court. He responded with, "ok nevermind about feedback just dont bid on my auctions again and everythings cool ok?" (Exact quote.)

Don't even bother with trash like this.

What an idiot. I seriously cringed every time I read one of his emails because he's so stupid, and then I just stopped reading them all together. What a nutjob. Ack!

I was just as pissed as if it were my money. And jeez that guy was really stupid. Couldnt spell for shit. He is definetly showing pride in his jail house grammar skills. All that wasted time and cash. I would have used the 52$ Justin spent on the auction for a bus ticket, or gas to take a drive to Texas. Especially when the police wouldnt come to Sals house. See that nice lexus ya got over these Sal? Cop shop biatch, bye bye
