Hey guys,
The story goes...
I have been dealing with a certain member here on toymods. He responded to a wanted to buy thread, as i was after a bumper. After the period of a couple of weeks with a bit of difficult communications, i decided to purchase the bumper off of him.He gave me his bank details and I deposited the money. All was well up until this point as of November 3rd 2005.
It is now the 17th, 2 weeks after i deposited the money. I have continually emailed, PM'd him throughout this period yet i have not received a response what so ever.
The bumper has not yet arrived, and i have no idea what is going on, whether the money was deposited, whether he has sent a bumper, or even whether he has a bumper. Im getting quite annoyed as I have booked in crash repairers to get the work done on my car, and have been continually held up by this member.
All i ask is for the bumper to be sent, and all will be forgotten.
I have checked the members profile and it states that he has been inactive on this forum since the 31st of October. I did not get a phone number, only his email,toymods name, and full name and bank details.
What should i do?
If you are out there, please respond to me, and let me know whats going on. I am a patient person, but its been ages.
If anyone has any advise as to how i should pursue this matter, please let me know.
Cheers

if you have his bank details goto that brand of bank and see if they'll give the detials. or goto police and ask if they can get the details.
you could try using www.whitepages.com.au to find his number off his full name (assuming it isnt something like "john smith")
next time all i can say is "C.O.D" or "couriers" something bit more secure then just putting money in his account on the faith that he's an honest guy.

yeh i'd try going to the bank and asking for his details and explain the situation. If they refuse, just go to the local police station and report it to them i guess, maybe hey'll be able to get the info

Don't bother with the bank or the police, because there is NOTHING they can do.

can
The bank is legally not allowed to give out details due to the privacy act, so they can't help you.
And in the eyes of the law the other dude has done nothing wrong, so they won't help you.

Looks like Gary Georgio knows Mikey somehow... you can probably ask RAVGT4 to ask Gary who Mikey is.

Go to the Australian Electoral Commission Office.
(they are in all Capital Cities)
If you know which state he lives in you can look up the Electoral Roll and his address.(If he has enrolled to vote)
Good starting point to track him down.
