    Possibly.

    I know paypal will find him and send him to collections.....

    Scamming someone like that is really stupid.

    Have him return the money, do the right thing.

    I have a friend that scammed someone for about ~$30 and they banned him from using PayPal but I'm not sure they did much else. Better to be safe than sorry, I'd advise him to return it. :/

    i doubt he will be arrest. at most his account will be deactivated and blacklisted. i don't think they are able to do anything else.

    Yes, yes I do.

    Firstly, submit a refund request. If that doesn't work, go to the police. They SHOULD do their job and get your money back which will be his fine pretty much for stealing as it is stealing. They supposedly will contact PayPal and get him on the black list. His IP, Location w/e. If they have done it more than once, they can be arrested, yes.

    I have known someone that has made very wrong choices in life, scamming OVER $10,000 dollars over Paypal just to buy rare items on RuneScape. He had jail time. He also had to do community service.

    Luka, that is not the topic of this thread. Please do not try to cause drama. If you have a problem, PM an admin.

    Not trying to backseat mod here, but you did that on purpose.

    Umm, no. I didn't even purchase NC until this year and most of which was bought with NC cards from EB games. I didn't even start selling shit until September, plus I'm trusted and I'm a moderator on another site. This is why I had you blocked. Causing drama, plus lying about me and making fun of my real life situations. who the fuck are you to tell me that I am stupid in the brain? Who the fuck are you to tell me that I am fucked up for not being a lesbian to suit your needs or w/e? It's changing the way I think about my own health. I lost 15 pounds in a WEEK because of what you told me. I knew you were odd when I first met you, I didn't know you were also a trouble maker. I have enough sources from people on YouTube, like that ginger guy that says they have souls or w/e. He has given me 20 dollars over paypal for Minecraft. My friend Rob has given me 40 because I needed it for something on Ebay. I have good friends that will help me that actually make lots of money.

    You aren't backseating at all, you're telling the truth and helping in a GOOD way. I thank you Ryan.

    It depends on how they stole it... Did this person log directly onto the account or tricked the person into sending the money?

    You're cruel hearted. You've always been like that. If I asked if you the question "Would you kill an animal just for fun" You'd probably say yes. You did it on purpose and don't do it again. Because it isn't the SPAM section or the place to put shit that doesn't make sense.
