I sent him the $675 (via EMT) for the card in this thread:

http://hobbyinsider.net/forum/showthread.php?t=452232

He has gone dark. Hasn't responded to my PM's or email asking for tracking info.

Has anyone else tried to buy the card?

Does anyone have info on him? Does anyone know him or has met him in person?

His name is Matt Clark.

PLMK as I am on my way to the police station this afternoon and any further info would be appreciated if you've ever sent him anything and have his address?

Feel free to reply to me in PM with any info you may have.

I have banned him for now so as to ensure he doesn't login and change any of his info we have on file.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Thanks Ameet.

Just got back from the police station. My statement has been made and a case file has been opened.

Any additional information that anyone on HI may have would be helpful and appreciated so please reach out if you do. Thanks!
 
I've never dealt with him but looking at his profile, he hadn't received any feedback since 2021 and he hasn't been on since June 10th. It's likely that he logged in just to pull off this quick scam. Sorry to hear about this, Jeremy : (
 
Omg not cool
I wish I could be of more help with this

Here's hoping someone knows him and we can figure out what's going on. If he is a scammer I hope he gets caught and pays the price
 
Definitely get his IP address from the HI forum software if you can or contact your hosting provider to get help on that if you haven't already.
 
I'm just going to come out and say it... It takes Cojones to F**K with the owner!
Sorry to hear Jeremy! Hopefully you can get it squared away soon!

You have gone through enough ordeal with Cards recently!
Definitely needs to stop!.
 
Thanks everyone for the well wishes and tips. I've since learned that he scammed two other people in a Tim Horton's facebook group.

Also thanks to the two members who reached out direct and provided more info which I will be adding to the police report.
 
Hmm, I am certain that I made a trade / sale / purchase with this individual as I remember the unique nickname. However I cannot find the transaction after searching through all the threads I am 'subscribed' to.

I believe he was primarily a Red Wings collector.

Wish I could help more. Good-luck and keep us posted.

Just came across your transaction with him. Hope this helps
 
The big card show at the adjacent town, Hamilton, is on July 1st. I will have a table and be on the lookout for anyone looking to sell the card.

Thanks Shaun.

No updates yet.

The case in the police queue and I've provided them two known addresses, phone number and all the IP addresses he used to login here. Hopeful they catch up with him.
