help get a scammer
« on: August 12, 2011, 11:36:31 am »
Put goldstar parts wanted add in Unzud bsa site,guy contacts yep have parts im in London.
My mate buys few small parts ($400) to make sure the guys ok and says will buy bulk load later.Mate sends money.
Never here back-google earth address,get photo of house,send biker mates in London around for a chat = empty house. Scammer turns up by email need more $ for post. Yeah right!!!!!!
Question is there away to find address of email sender if your a computer whizz??
Any other ideas> Just principal to get the bugger.

It won't be his computor Bazz , bound to be a internet cafe.
Back when I was interested in this type of stuff I traced a guy who was scanning me back to a cafe in Bristol.
He pulled the plug when he realized what I was doing. ;D
