I say this in every one of these threads. Dont pay for things via PayPal GIFT unless you know the person. If its somthing significant get their address aswell?
Some poeple are just too gullable and naive, makes you think if these poeple have had any contact with poeple or been living in a barn for their life. No offence.

Paypal gift is an option intended for sending money to family......not a complete stranger on a forum buddy.

He's a Scottish Member buddy, ask in our general chat section & you might find someone that can give you a mobile number & address. IIRC he's from Dundee

i always off the option of gift or goods, if someone is paying my gift i will give them my details and aim for 24-48hr delivery to save any issues.
Other people though like to steal your money and run

not sure if this works but I heard another user on here say you give him 1p more but do the paypal the way that it gives you his address then, ok he 1p more but you can go vist him or tell the police his address or look him up in the phone book.
I've spoke to him briefly last year when I was racing at crail if I see him up there again I'll tell him your looking for him.
