Wii Scam

Hello,

I was scammed by someone named Clement ........ for a Wii + games at an interesting price!
I didn't see it coming at all and I don't know what to do?
The worst part is that he is a kid (only 20 years old)
I thought about setting a trap for him too, but I don't know how to go about it!
I am torn between finding him and "beating him up" and going to the police
but I don't trust them much to resolve this kind of issue!

Anyway, I don't know what to do!
If you have been a victim of the same person, please let me know!

    Hello
    And did you pay by Western Union????
    It's prohibited, it's written on their slip
    and it's reserved for people who know each other
    Money invested to learn it

    And he is probably not in France???
    File a complaint in any case even if the cop on duty mocks your naivety
    to boost the statistics
    Note his (fake) name here and his email and phone number to feed Google's memory
    he's our friend

      apparently he is at ... and he would have already scammed other people!
      but what matters to me is to get my money back above all!
      I won't let this go!
      thank you for your response

      Hello, I was also scammed by this person. I filed a complaint and went to court at the end of July (I'm actually waiting for the judge's verdict on September 15).
      Here is my email: removed by Moderation so that we can join our files against this person and try to win the case.
      Best regards

      Hello, he also scammed me out of €250 on the same site and with the same ad on July 27, 2009. I managed to stay in contact until last week when he admitted to having defrauded me, and since then he hasn't answered from his mobile...

    Hello, after discussing with someone on this site, we have shared our complaint files.
    The solution to trap this scammer is to call the Longjumeau police as they are the ones handling the investigation.
    Feel free to mention my complaint file (reference: RG N° 91-09-000514).
    This scammer is already known to the police services. If we manage to present enough evidence, they will be able to make him pay.

    Good evening,

    I nearly got scammed by this person. I came across their ad, I spoke to them on the phone around 9:30 PM and they said, "I'll call you back tomorrow, I'm putting my kids to bed," and mentioned that they were currently in Bordeaux but had taken their Wii console with them. The next day, they called me back around 12:30 PM, etc.... explained the cash mandate story and after hanging up, I didn't feel good about the situation. So if everyone had the same reflex I had, there would be fewer victims: I typed their phone number into Google and found a certain "Clément ........." associated with the keyword "scam," and it was indeed the nickname they had given me. I called them back and I let them have it, but they hung up on me automatically. Be careful, they use other nicknames and phone numbers.

    Any request for payment via Western Union or money order should be considered suspicious as it may conceal a scam.
