Wow, no wonder I didn't get the wraps we traded! He said he was training to be deployed on the 22nd of this month. I thought there was delivery problems on this end!

Not only is he a thief, he is a wannabe Marine. I just can't abide thieves, and military posers are one of my pet peeves. I hope he enjoys the cross bar hotel for a long time to come.

Matt - sounds like you need to call the Irving P.D. and add to the charges if you haven't done so already.  Good luck amigo.

If he's in jail - someone should send him a skirt.

Gents,

Since he is in jail, that's good. But, I like Rob Green's idea. We should all contact the Irving PD, and file more charges.

Anyone have a contact there? If not, I will get one.

After reading this post I just realized I was scammed by this guy too. After many many positive dealings on here I got burned. Luckily I am only out 4 arrows. As far a filing charges, I am pretty certain that won't happen. All transactions made on this site are of a civil nature and the only way to recoup any money would be a civil lawsuit. No Prosecutor I know would touch it. Just my experience in such matters.

Here is a copy of a post on stickbow:

Just wanted to let everybody know that I contacted the Irving, Texas police dept. I sent him my bow, and he was supposed to send me his bow. This guy is in jail now. He had felony warrants against him. From what the police are telling me, this guy was into a lot of illegal stuff. Fake military ID. I guess you know that he wasn't in the military? Using a different social security #, etc. The problem now is, the post office seems to have lost my bow. And, I'm in the process of trying to get that back. Just thought I'd let everyone know. And I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas! James

So it looks like your road trip probably won't do you much good. Sorry to hear that you some folks here got ripped off by the guy. I would recommend contacting Irving Police Dept. to see if they could use some additional evidence against him. If you are lucky, they may have recovered some of the stolen stuff and you will eventually get it back.

Having been in law enforcement, though, I can tell you it could be a lengthy process.

Guys,

If you were ripped off by this guy please go ahead and contact the local PD asking to make a statement. Even if you don't get your stuff back or they are unable to lay charges in YOUR case the information is excellent supporting evidence and will lend weight to any court case or sentencing report.

As an investigator I always love to have stuff like this in my pocket when the defence lawyer for a guy like this gets up and talks about what a great guy his client is and how he made a mistake and he's learnt his lesson. Hard for him to make a persuasive case for that with a victim list that runs out the court house door......
