right peeps, im feeling that i may have been scammed by a user on here! i have paid for the goods by depositing the money in his bank account, im not going to put a name or anything as he may contact me soon! but anyways ive just paid him and now i havent heard a thing off him! last i heard is that hes getting packaging that was a few days ago! i ve seen him online many times and not responded to my pm's? what should i do?

you need to name and shame...others may have had the same problem with them, may know them personally to give them a nudge to hurry up.
maybe the person has had an accident - and a friend on here knows so could tell you.
blah blah blah.

otherwise this is a pointless thread.

his name on here jage! i have paid for a vtr front bumper that has been widemouthed! i went to his bank (barcleys) and put the money in his account! i got home and pm'ed him saying it has been depositted and he replied saying ok ill check later and my dad is getting packaging for it? anyways what should i do as im not made of money and the £55 could of gone to something else!
its just im a bit worried about it due to lack of communication as ive seen him online and has not replied!

You put the money in his bank? Seriously? Surely your only route now would be police, as you have no protection what so ever... Threaten him with police action IMO.

yh i did put it in his account :( but i didnt want to use paypal for the fact i would had to take it out of my account and put in my misses and then wait for it to clear! i might have to if he doesnt get in contact by friday! as it doesnt take a week to post it surely?

If you don't receive any contact what so ever off him, then I'd just message him saying he's got a few days to contact you and you will get the police involved after a set date. If he's online and not responding, it doesn't look good.

Tbf though Jage does have a decent post count over on 106oc, has iTrader and seems a good lad. So if OP's been over there and checked him out, that will explain it.
People on owners have bought from me and I've only got 300 posts...yet over here I haz mucho's :A:
OP, I'll give Jage a nudge this way for you :y:
