Default I got scammed by Frank Harper a.k.a. IOwNMkeG

Does anyone know Frank Harper a.k.a. IOwNMkeG?

He has all positive trader feedback but is completely flaking on his last sale. I need your help. Please give me his contact information if you have it.

He owes me 3 NIB Novak 17.5.

I placed a claim as a non-receipt with Paypal and he has till the end of this month to resolve this matter.


Here's the history:
July 5th - Sent payment via paypal
July 9th - got this pm "hey dude I am sorry I have yet had the time to ship out your motors. i am swamp at work. I should be able to get them out tomorrow as i dont have to be to work untell 10am unless i get called in. Just want to keep you up dated. and again sorry Thanks Frank"
I replied telling him I understand.

I haven't heard from him since. I've tried multiple times contacting him through pm and e-mail. I got no response.

To those that have dealt with him or know who he is, please give me his address and/or phone number. I'd like to notify the local PD.

I know there's people on this forum that know this guy. Please give me his phone number and address.

Of course Paypal wasn't much help retrieving my money, I only got $7.19 back out of $180.
I'm pissed.

I want to bring in the local police dept. to get involved now.

I'm surprised you were actually able to get Paypal to listen.

It wasn't hard at all. All it took was one email and a phone call...then I had the money in my account.

Paypal will now pursue the issue with Frank Harper.
