If so, then take the next step as all the good folks around here are advising. File a report with all the proper authorities, and let this douche serve time for pulling this scam.
Also, when you talk to the authorities...make sure to inquire as to which court you should file suit in. And keep all those documents you have in a very safe place.
Best of luck. It sucks that you had to learn this lesson at such a young age, but I expect you're the sort of person who will know what to watch out for from now on.

Paypal wont do squat. This guy is a pro scammer and he keep money in the account. Paypal is worthless unless you used a CC to buy it then contact the CC company.
Call the FBI NOW. If you ever want a CHANCE of getting your cash back you will have to act fast before this guy gets up and moves.

Yeah, put this f*cker in jail!! You have all the evidence you need right now, and with your friend participating in another scam for him, it will keep him engaged long enough for the authorities to step in and catch him.
