How about a quick summary?

1.) Andrew Carter ripped me off 725.00$ (for a G4 ibook). He is located somewhere near Montreal. He claims he is innocent and I will find out when I get home today.

2.) Other people have had similar experience with this mysterious guy from "just off of montreal". He also goes by the name "John Howard" it seems. Maybe its two different people - we don't know for certain. Although there is a lot of similiarity.

3) Tracing through John Howard's telephone number.. we got Mr.Emad Raouf as the real guy. Applelover has all the information about him.

4) We wish to investigate this matter and provide information to the RCMP through RECOL in an organized manner. Thus, we need to get evidence of other similar events. If you think you have been a victim of this person, please email me your details (transaction dates, and other e-mail evidences). If valid, I will submit another to RECOL.

So much for the "PayPal requires a real name" idea.

I had the same thing happen to me from this forum, different name but a guy just outside of montreal. I spoke with him on hhis cell phone, and still have that number if that would help. It was for an ibook never received.

ANDREW CARTER said he tracked the package and it came today... guess what??? It did not.. (anyone surprised)..

Anyway, this is enough for us to proceed with getting the RCMP involved.

My lesson is learned and so will his.

Interestingly, Andrew Carter is the name of a local AM radio talk show host...

Call him during his broadcast - see if he's the same guy.
Start with "You owe me $725!".

Stillmot, can you provide me with the name that this person used when transacting with you?

In order to provide some useful information to the RCMP, please provide me with descriptions of your experience (what happened, the dates, how much money you lost, the e-mails, paypal transaction #, etc). If you don't mind, please also give me your personal info.

Currently 2 other people who have joined the rally. Again if you're a victim to this person - let me know about your experience.

You know, when I saw the ad for the G4 ibook listed at about $700 my first thought was that this was a scam. I even considered posting on the ad something to the effect of "be careful about this one", but that would have been against forum rules, and would have been unfair if the person had been legit. I feel sorry for you but you have to have a sense that the deal was too good to be true, and that maybe you shouldn't send this guy money.
