I sent him my gen Breitling plus cash for a trade. As soon as I did it I realized I'd probably screwed up and tried to recall the package with USPS but unfortunately it was too late to recall the package. Fortunately the $1200 I paid in addition will be covered by my credit card dispute, but unfortunately I'm out a gen Breitling watch. Just an FYI and a warning to everyone else.


Oh well...

1/ Have you been in contact with a mod about this before posting?
2/ How do you know for sure you have been scammed?

I received a $25 canal street Breitling replica in lieu of the genuine IWC 3719 I had paid for. His email account is disabled. That's how I know I've been scammed.

Right, it may have been a good idea to include that rather vital piece of info in the original post, yes?
Do you have the serial of the gen? Have you faxed said serial to every pawn shop in his locality? Have you posted it on the gen fora? Are you watching ebay/gumtree/Craigslist? Posting it here would be a good start, there are 7 guest members reading this right now, SEO is a wonderful thing.

Doubtful, he picked it up today from the post office. Apparently I just missed him after emailing the Iceland Post.

So, I have a correct email address (or at least one he's currently using), a phone number, date of birth, and some old forum names he used to use (nothing current unfortunately). I'm having trouble locating his linkedin and facebook because apparently Magnus Sigurðsson in Iceland is like John Smith here. He was born in 1990 according to one of the forum profiles.


If anyone wants to have some fun and is computer savvy, I'd love the help. Please PM me if you're ready to **** someone's world.
