  • Tell him you know about the suspended sentence and give him 24 hours to refund.

    Then when you get the money tell plod anyway. 

    This. It appears he owes a lot of money so he might not be forthcoming with the refund until you put some real pressure on him.

  • Tell him Pedal or Prison , I take it that you still want the pedal?. My guess that he has used your money to gamble or pay back some else. Let's get him banned from FB. I Hate people like him.
    “Ken sent me.”

  • Sadly, I would be surprised if the pedal actually exists and whether it would be reliable anyway. But you never know, many fraudsters have one hand in reality.

    I would just want my ton back and be done with it.

    In all seriousness it looks like he's got quite a public profile, usually scammers aren't the type to advertise themselves so much. 
    Generally not. Most scammers don't like having their name associated with a history of scams.

    What @Hootsmon and others have said. I don't know how he managed to get a suspended sentence. He should be in nick. He will be when you tip off plod, or should be if the system works correctly. I bet it doesn't though. I really hate people like this.

    So, the seller may have seen this thread and is claiming what I’ve said is untrue; I’ve asked him to provide the details and I will happily respond/correct any items. 
    They say they have proof that delivery was attempted, but they won’t show me that.
    UPDATE 22/12: I HAVE NOW RECEIVED MY REFUND.

    Doesn’t really matter whether what’s been said is true or untrue. You paid for something nearly a month ago and haven’t received it. If the delivery company has lost it then it’s up to the seller to put a claim in, but that doesn’t stop him refunding you your money. 

    I think if you don’t get refunded in the next 24 hours you should report it to Action Fraud.

    It turns out that, looking at the track & trace (PN518894078GB), the item has no tracing outside of the Midlands (I'm in Berkshire) and delivered to him by the Royal Mail.
    I have no record of a delivery attempt to me (not a card through the door, nothing in the above track & trace).
    UPDATE 22/12: I HAVE NOW RECEIVED MY REFUND.

    He's now threatened to sue me for slander (sic.), so I've asked him to point out anything which is untrue and I will be happy to retract/remove/correct it.

    Action Fraud - that's good - have added them to my list.

  • I thought it was sent by Yodel - but he’s given you a RM tracking number? Sounds like you’re being given the runaround. Log it with Action Fraud first thing in the morning. They’re connected to the police so will take the necessary action.
