Ripped Off!!!! Need Help!!!

[HurleyHero67]

If you used a USPS MO, it's now a federal offense...so why again are you talking to us?

[arsonpaintball06]

If i got the M/O from a bank, can i go to the bank w/ the reciept......and have them trace it to the guys account......or would they not do that for me (gatta be sum red tape or sumthin........cant be that easy)

more information on the connection he used.

question still remains as to why you are still talking to us trying to get up the AO lynch mob. best bet, get on the horn to the college, talk to the IT department, let them know that some fraud has occured, and you are looking for whatever help they can give within their limits.

if you get an address or name our of them, take it to the police.

If he doesnt answer mine or phil's email...........and i call college, wat do i say to them so they can track him down........and would it work if i asked bank to trace m/o from the reciept

lets see, walker hall is a dormitory on the OU campus. on the OU website it says that walker hall is a womens dorm for freshmen. you said something about his email being phil_bratch83 . there are 4 "phillip"s in the OU database, there are no people with the last name bratch. since he is prolly like me, he uses his birth year as the last part of the number. so he is 21-22 years old. Walker hall is right in the middle of all of the law buildings at OU so he or his girlfriend may be a law student. there is 1 of the "phillip"s that is a law student at OU. just go to http://telcom.okcu.edu/directory/ and do a first name search to see what I mean. hope that helps ya any. Cya!

[spadge67]

damn, screw the FBI or the NSA, just get together a large community of friends, some of which are computer saavy, and go from there

AO rocks, serious-lah

Yes,
You can trace a MO, Usually, there is fine print on the back of the receipt.
It will cost you something under $20 to put on the trace. It should tell you exactly who claimed the money and where.
Also, you could talk to your bank about legal recourse. Don't talk to the teller though. Talk to the "pit boss." She/he will know more. Goto the closest Main branch too, not one of the satellite banks.
Also, it is better that you kept the receipt for the money order than the guys supposed mailing address. Don't feel so bad.

He answered my email today. Seemed pretty preturbed at me for emailing him and what he felt was the negative tone of it. Said he had your check and would take care of it. I told him the reason I had taken that route was he was being trashed on AO about it. Maybe he does not know that or did not know that. He is most likely between school and home or summer extern. Give him a little time to make it right.

i understand what your saying phil ........but look wat i've had to deal with:

1. little to no communication on his part
2. told me he sent it last week
3. waited 2 weeks prior to last week for him to even say he sent it

i mean of course im goin to be a lil mad........would it be too much trouble to have you email him back and find out when he plans to "get around" to sending it? so i can know......i mean usually when u are a seller, you dont jus send $$ when you get around to it......you do it promptly, or maybe im jus brought up on different morals?
