Default Fraud

I sent a money order to an individual for a part and havent heard from him in weeks. Are the mods able to see if he's using an alias now cause it doesnt appear hes been online since I last heard from him.

THe screenname I sent the money order to is: 91lt1. Can we track based on IP to see if he's using alias's?

Thanks.

never send anyone money orders. paypal is the best option when on the web.

try going back to the place where you got your money order and see if he cashed it yet. post his street address and let it be known to the world this guys a scumbucket

Might have better luck pm-ing the mod responsible for the section this complaint refers to, assuming either the Texas classifieds or the general classified.
