We were suppose trade my QTP headers for his aftermarked WS6 hood almost 3 months ago. I sent him a money order and after sometime of him not shipping out the hood he finally sent me a PM saying...

"I had a guy come by here and offer me $600 for it and I think I'm gonna go with that. I'll send your money back if he buys it. I will know by tmrw! Sorry if this rains on your parade, but I think you'll understand that it's business."

Since them I have written him multiple PM's asking for my money back and everytime I get an excuse. The last few PM's I've sent he has read but not responded too. I had a fishy feeling about this from the beginning. I should have known when he told me that he didn't want to go through paypal because they screwed him over. Oh well I guess it's on me for being to trusting with people.

I filled it out, thanks for the link! Quick question, why when I send him a PM now, does it not do a receipt request? I click the box, but it doesn't go into my uncomfirmed box?

If you still have the money order number you can check to see if it has been cashed, if it hasnt you can cancel it.

Sooo.... You paid for an item, and it was agreed upon that he would ship it? So since he accepted payment, it was technically yours? And then he sold it to someone... So basically he sold your hood to someone else? Cant there be legal action for something like that??? Just seems alittle different then when someone sends money, and the item just never shows, and seems to disappear. In this case the item was sold twice. haha

I agree on checking the MO. If its not cashed, cancel it, and move on. But if it was cashed, get on his case....dont let him get away with being a shady trader.

Just a little update...

I last tried to contact this member in Feb of '08. Unfortunately life happened and this was the last thing on my mind for the remainder of '08. I just recently tried to get in contact with him through both PM and email and it seems he has me on an "ignore" list on this site and is not returning my emails.

The member "infantrymarine" is in the military and stationed in VA. I know what branch he is in as well as his first and last name. I've heard that if I can get a hold of his commanding officer I might have a chance of getting my money back. Any truth to this? At this point the $110 isn't a huge amount of money, it's now just the principal.

Thanks in advance for any help!!!

If you can find out some kind of his command structure (at the minimum a battalion level), you could pursue that route. What base in VA is this dude stationed at? You could always get in contact with the MP Detachment where he is stationed and they could pursue UCMJ action, as well as civilian legal action in that jurisdiction. You would definitely need solid documentation and proof that this guy cashed your money order.

If he cashed it and you have all the messages saying pretty much the details of the Transaction, then you can go to his First Sergeant(or equavilent in the Marines).

That can be an Article 15 if it is persued, I've seen it happen.

His profile mentions Quantico so I'm guessing he is stationed there. From reading one of his last posts he mentions being a Marine Sgt. I do know that his full name is Jason Long and have the full address where I sent the money order.

Ya, infantrymarine is definitely looking at a FG Article 15 if you can prove he took your money and didnt deliver on his end of the deal. Wow, getting brought down to the next inferior rank, restriction/ extra duty, and 1/2 pay for a month for screwing over somebody on the internet. I wish that happened to all scammers.

S.O.M.Z28

There is no way your going to find out this guy's unit information using the internet, and you would need that info to get in contact with his superiors. The best thing I could suggest would be getting in contact with the Quantico Provost Marshal Office and get in touch with the CID (Criminal Investigations) guys. I found the CID number for Quantico, it is 703.784.2027.
