What should I do? - ebay scammer
me and about 10 other people have been ripped off by a user on ebay, he was claiming to be selling some rare/sealed/prototype games. they were never sent out, this was around 3 weeks ago. paypal will not cover the whole amount owed to everyone either! After doing a little digging (and hacking into his email account) I've managed to find his home address!
So now i have a list of all the users he ripped off, their names, email addresses, how much they paid and where they are from. should i go to the police with all the information i have, or should i knock on his door and go the vigilante route? I would go to the police straight away if i thought they weren't a bunch of muppets, but i think it could be a long winded process and probably not get my cash back. on the other hand, i'm a fairly large chap and could just frog march him to a bank to get the money back. what should i do?
