If he's on the net (and must be if he can send an email) ask for a list of people he's ripped off seeing he's admitted he's going to pay them all back.
We can have a check list of people and tick them off after payment.
And yes. Why not a direct deposit from NZ. It'll be in your account before he gets back from NZ.
And when the last one is ticked call the coppers.
Ah, bugger it. Call the coppers. He's publicly admitted he's defrauded multiple people and also said he'll pay them all back.
If he doesn't pay then small claims.
Why would any sane person with any shred of conscience or sense of morality want to sell something 37 times (it seems)??
If I were in his shoes (and I would never be) I'd be sh!tting bricks about now.
I reckon I would hand myself into the coppers instead of them looking for me.
If he has any remorse he would hand himself into the coppers and face the consequences of his actions.
He's only sorry because he's got caught.
How long has he been doing this??
It's definitely not a once only occurrence.
For those who have got stuff off him (and received it) I'd be checking the serial numbers with the Police as well.
Who know's what been stolen as you have to ask the question....how did he get the stuff to start with??
