    I have been updating as I can on this thread. Please understand that I am a victim here too. And I am having to take my time away from work to straighten this all out. I will contact each of you as I can to give you updates there are many people on here that I have traded with and can say that I am a good trader, have been on the opposite side of getting scammed. So I know how it feels. Will get your stuff straightened out or send back what ever was traded to me. Just give it a few days so I can get this all taken care of.

    Can you at least tell us the post office where your issues arose, so we can call and verify?

    Also, maybe you should stop continuing to make trades if you are so busy ;)

    or why you are still offering another duffle bag to others?

    Interesting how you recently removed yourself from the official Pearl Jam Facebook group...

    this isn't something you handle with sporadic posts in a thread. stop hiding and deal with this like a man, Jeremy

    Post office would never tell him all that information..

    Trying to give the dude the benefit of the doubt, but wouldn't the post office refer him to the police?

    If they had a staff member stealing, wouldn't people who had their items stolen get referred to the police to see about getting their stuff back?

    Also, not sure what it's like in the US of A, but in Canada, it's a big deal to tamper with the mail. It wouldn't just be an issue of some petty theft charge, there would be multiple charges,so likely no one would be getting anything back cause it would need to be kept as evidence.

    I hope we don't have another scammer in our midst, but if we do, I sure would like the mods to take some action and start revoking memberships for this sort of stuff. We police ourselves for the most part, but it sure seems more common, might help if there were more serious consequences.

    If this guys has a 1998 membership as his forum signup date suggests, it sure would be great if he got his 10c membership revoked for these shenanigans.

    I've dealt with the post office many times, many times just like this where a label had been created but does not show any movement. They would NEVER take responsibility without a post office scan..NEVER

    Is there anyway of starting a " I got scammed " Thread?
    Or will it just turn into a shitshow and get locked.

    Is time a factor? Don ripped me off 3-4 years ago.

    He's mentioned here so frequently...is there nothing he offers to do via the Facebook when questioned/confronted? Surely over the last 3-4 years he's managed to earn enough to pay back those he screwed over?
    He stopped responding to my messages and he doesn't come around anymore. Only in pm's. I'm not on face book. I think I'm going to dedicate a thread to him so that others understand that he's not to be trusted.

    There was also the scammer with the koala pic that i lost out on and so did many others. Her name was heather but has never returned and never paid back the money. Her story was her nephew hacked her account. Note to scammers, use better stories

    Its a real shame the only time i have been scammed on online international and domestic deals has been through the lost dogs forum.

    Update on jrw234911: I have had contact with him as of late. He has paid back a small portion of the money he owes me. Seems as if he fell off the wagon and spiraled out of control. If you are owed from him reach out. I THINK he will attempt to make it right.
