Well he could be watching this thread so of what use is to send him a bogus mail if you're telling him so beforehand.

I'm from Portugal but I'm in a place 300Km away from Lisbon (Algarve) so I can't be of any help. Even if I was close don't think contacting/paying a visit to him would be of any use.

There's free center to solve "consumer conflicts" (or whatever it's called in english) at www.centroarbitragemlisboa.pt whose rullings are as valid as a court's but I don't think this case would qualify as it works only with stuff bought from companies. But you could send them an email and ask for advice anyway. Don't hold your breath though.

" Yeah.. Try it.. Would be fun to read his reaction.. He's probably out of town.. Working.. In Australia.. Yeah! Or Canada! Hehe.."

If you mean someone from another country pretending to be from here I think he must be from Portugal given his account data, otherwise he wouldn't be able to receive the money with a bogus bank account.

The most f*cked up thing (really) is that bank account data and proof of goods shipment should be able to secure oneself but they aren't. I got scamed twice with PPC cards, one from germany (the famouns bernd bind or whatever case) and another one from Greece. The bank account data is worth sh*t. If you want anything done you have to pay a lawyer. :madashell: It's probably a diferent case with consumer goods bought from a shop in most EU countries in wich case you can get the case solved free of charge using a center like the one I mentioned above, but there should be a way to solve stuff sold privately too.
