Big congrats on getting the cue back.

Are there any details you are willing to share in helping avoid (or resolve) a similar situation in the future?

Yes, in a paypal dispute the first person to send them a police report... wins.

Are you sure he killed the empty box report with the police? I'm wondering because if he admits he lied he should be charged with filing a false report.

Pi,, that's exactly right....that should happen.

Uunbelieveable story, Joe, how this all went down. Glad you got the cue back, though, and can get you PP account restored. I'm sure the result of this might not have met your expectations and probably worth all of your time you invested, but hopefully this guy will learn from this and not try to pull a scam like this again.

All he has to do is say him and I worked it out.. he doesn't have to say he lied. He just needs to drop the accusation. The detective will put 2 and 2 together.

Sean,
I got great results, and he even got the cue authenticated for me. The only disappointment is with the legal system. I don't think this guy will ever do something like this again. He had that look like a 5 year old that got caught taking a dollar from his mom's purse.

He'll do it again. Trust me I know someone just like this.

When he/they get caught he will say he's sorry until you feel sorry for him but in reality he figures he is out smarting you again because he isn't going to jail.

If you really want to teach him a lesson follow through with the police.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's on probation or something and is worried his Probation officer might find out.
 
Thanks for sharing the 'sting' with us! Brilliant maneuver, I might add...glad you are coming to some conclusion on this matter. :thumbup:

We have it worked out.. he has something iron clad, my handshake, as long as he follows through. I know people, and I know he was crapping bricks and probably thinking to himself this could have been the day him and his mortality had a face to face. This may not be popular for the masses, but his penalties have been stiff enough.

I thought long and hard about going back on my word.. but that would mean I am no better than he is.

No problem totally understand. I respect you for giving your word and sticking to it.

I'm just saying I know this type of person all too well and I can guarantee his life of deceit isn't over because he basically got away with this little adventure. Having him arrested wouldn't guarantee that either though but it might make him fly straight for at least the time that he is going through"the system".

But again I totally understand you position on this.

Congrats on the STING!:thumbup:
