Yeah, I guess. I was subscribed, but got tired of the "I just read through the WHOLE thing, send that guy to the gallows". If they have something good to contribute I don't mind, guess I just shouldn't let it get to me.

I have information on this guy's whereabouts. Give me $2200 and I will tell you
But for real, how is it there is so little legal/judicial recourse for **** like this.
It's fraud, but no one gives a ****

No joke, I know what Billy Smith's been up to. Scamming on ebay. My husband and I have been with ebay for 10 yrs with 1029 positive feedbacks. More buying than selling. On July 22nd a newly registered buyer bossdon617 did a BIN for our $1500 Canon Camera lens. Figured it would be ok, we got the money through PayPal. Took the lens to the UPS store for them to box up so it would arrive safely. It was sent to Billy Smith 1338 Blue Hill Ave Boston, Ma 02126. It was actually delivered to Mattapan, Ma and signed for by Smith. We have never had any contact with him except for his payment. Aug. 9th a Fedex package was delivered to our home from a post office box in Randolph, Ma. It contained soap.The same day he became unregistered on ebay. The next morning we received an email from PayPal telling us our buyer had filed a SNAD claim saying we had sent him a totally different item, a kit lens. A kit lens is a starter lens that comes with an entry level camera. We sent him a Canon EF24/1.4L ll lens. The body number is 1727590. They also took the $1500 from our account. I decided to do an internet search on Billy Smith Mattapan and it brought me to this forum. I was pretty stunned at what I was reading. I printed our the short version from the JEE-RHAL site. After a month of 'investigating" PayPal told him to return the lens for a refund. He just had to show them he had proof of tracking. He gave them the tracking from the crap he had sent us in Aug. I faxed PayPal the info from here and lots of emails. A week later they found in our favor and returned our money. But it's not over yet. On Sept. 29th Billy Smith filed a fraudulent charge back with his credit card company. That nightmare is just beginning.

Thank you for your post ... You just saved me from potentially being scammed. Likely the same scam as above. Billy is now using an ebay user ID of monent774.

Time to start scamming the scammer:

Naw, J/K, could you imagine?!
At any rate too much time/effort spend 'solving' a problem that could have been just as easily ignored.
Now if one of you will tell me the short version of how to get the best lease deal, that's something I'm interested in....

Ugh. This has me a little concerned as I just shipped wheels to a newbie on this site. Not saying there is anything wrong, but it's got me a little petrified now.
