I have a $60 trade with him in smaller cards. It's only $60 compared to what you other guys are going through but reading all these threads is getting me super pissed off......I can't believe this. I mean....who do you trust.....he has a bunch of trades, great feedback. This is just depressing......

No joke. I keep checking back in to see the next post.
Derek, I really hate that this has happened to you. Hopefully it works out good some way or the other for you.

He owes me a Stan Musial 2012 Topps Tribute auto /99. Said he busted it open out of the box. I sent him $30 in paypal and a 2011 Topps 60 Starlin Castro auto. I hope to God that I get his end of the deal in the mail on Monday. He was always such a good guy to me.

Guys I just got home. This has taken a turn for the worst for sure. I gotta hand it to him. He planned it out well. I mean waiting for a huge hit like this to get all these people. I feel like a moron. He never had cards lie this then suddenly he has all these great cards. I really thought he was one of those that hid his PC and with all his wife's issues (if she has issues) he needed the money bad.
For the record, I only sent $350 and the rest I owed hadn't been paid yet. The felony level is $750 according to the detectives I have spoken too. Although as stated before mail fraud is HUGE. Plus Paypal has investigators that will take him down.
Anyone who he scammed with Paypal needs to file a dispute quick, the more the better and it will help us all get our money back I think.
On the subject of a mod handling high-end. I doubt that happens but guys I would gladly be the guy that handles them if anyone needs me. I'll post my cell and anything you need. I won't allow this to happen if I can help it. NO CHARGE

Address is Wyoming.
He goes by Jake, mails from the name Raven who he claims to be his wife and Paypal comes from a Tim with a different last name.
