Do the words "verbal contract" ring a bell and the fact that he took money confirms he made a contract for something?
He took money to preform a service (make a cue) he didn't or hasn't delivered what was promised = Fraud.
I also think it's a bad idea to pay for any service up front. Like someone else said. He has no incentive to finish now other than the law. He's probably doing the ones that haven't paid up front first!![]()

There would be no contract about an end time, even if you traced it through paypal, saying you did pay him and that he will deliver a cue, without a specified end date, there was no violation of the law.
