If you could fix it before why not now?
No one would bother to come looking for yo-yos, as they know you can easily relocate them. What they might do is take the probable cause from Dingo, this thread, and so on, and file for fraud in court. It is against the law to intentionally deprive someone of their property under false pretenses. You would have the chance to show up and state your side of the story, but it has to be consistent with what you posted here. When you are summoned to court and don’t show, you might end up with a warrant, then they come to your house and look for YOU…not yo-yos. Now, it is up to Dingo to pursue any of this, but if someone defrauded me I would go the extra mile.
No one is ganging up on you…the choice is yours how you want to resolve this.
cops arent gonna do anything about lost toys. they have to deal with murders and actual robberys and you think they have time for a toy that got lost in usps
I know that is not true, as 90% of what the police spend their time on actually has to do with “quality of life” issues and smaller crime, not what you see on television. People who believe that watch too much television. In light of your attitude about the consequences, if I were Dingo, I’d go above and beyond to convince you otherwise. Further USPS has not determined anything “lost,” you have, they have not. There was never any package, if there was, there would be a receipt and/or tracking number to prove it. Before you classify something as “lost in USPS,” make sure that the USPS is on board with that. They clearly are not. USPS called to testify will say they have no idea what you are talking about, as you have no tracking number or receipt that you mailed anything through them.
Which is mail fraud, which is also a felony. You’re messing with Uncle Sam then.
Well, I called!
No answer. And he said they were waiting for my call.
I’m sorry, but this is just a blatant lie.
No post office is going to accept a package with a fake zip code. They would punch in the zip code to print your shipping label, and when they saw nothing came up, they would have you correct it. Even if you shipped using the machine where you don’t deal with anyone directly, it would have told you there was an error in the address.
But even if by some miracle you were able to send a package with a nonexistant zip code, upon attempted delivery, the post office would realize the address didn’t exist, then return it to the listed return address. So unless you put both the wrong shipping address, and somehow messed up on your own address, this is bs.
Keep us posted if there is a return call.
I see that the name of the thread changed now too. Right on. As I stated, when you deal with people who do this, you have to progressively do things, and do it in waves, so that they can see it snowball right in front of their eyes. Now, I hear he got banned off the Facebook BST, and the title of the thread has changed from the general “trade compensation” to his real name and username with the word scam after it. Looks like that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Now, hopefully when he re-enters the thread, it will be with a different attitude about things. I already PMed Dingo about plan C. The look on the bright side for Dingo is that until things get resolved, he has day and night until then to bump this thread and try every avenue to get what he bargained for in the deal.
Even if they accepted the ZIP, they would realize there is no elkhart, IA. ALthough, they wouldnt get to that since they wouldn’t accept it in the first place. I will most likely get the police involved if he does not call back. And thanks for the advice Totalartist.
EDIT:
Mom called back, says she is sorry it happened, and she wont let him ship any more. She also says they will ship them if they come back, and would like me to take of “scam” from the title. I am going to give him negative feedback, and she obviously doesnt understnad. It isnt my fault he didnt get tracking, and this whole thing is BS. Should I still try and call the police?
I would, you don’t know for sure if that was even his mother, might be one of his friends. As a parent, I just can’t see any sane reason why “I won’t let you ship” whenever it would be to make a situation right. This whole thing reaks of scam.
call the cops. please lol
This is such a lie. The post office punches in the zip code before they even print out the label. I watch them do it EVERY time I send something. I don’t, for a second, believe anything brad is saying.
To recap
he says the po says its in iowa, cant ask them for tracking
Lost tracking in the first place
Said hed ship more today
“Mom” wont let him ship more
Mom says i am sorry this happened, helps me get absolutely nothing done
Says she is positive it was shipped
It mysteriously shipped with extra 7 on ZIP
They ship by ZIP(I am in indiana) it is in IA
A is very far from N on keyboard
Mom does nothing to fix this
Brad does nothing to fix this
I have nothing
He got 3 yoyos
I shipped on time with tracking, he got the yoyos 2 days later.
Try contacting Josh Rodriguez, he can probably get the kid to ship.
How is that?
He lives very close to him.
I would, but I dont know him, dont want to ask him to do that.
i dont think your understandig wesley. nomatter what you do im not allowed to ship anything.
I find it hilarious that you’ve said this like 80 times in this thread, yet your BST is unedited and was bumped on March 8th.
I think he deleted his account or blocked me
