Just out of curiosity, why are you posting this message on a trading board? Does she trade here? If she took you for $4K, you should contact the post office inspector general and file a mail fraud complaint. You might also contact your bank and ask them trace the check to see where it was cashed or deposited.

i would NEVER send $4000 to someone i didnt know
its best to do smaller trades or such if u dont know or trust them
there are ways to pursue this BUT IN TRUTH, most likely
u r just out the $$
its hard to pursue these things and 99 % of the time
u r just had

Id like to know if your a first time poster, why you sent along 4000.00 ?
Second, Sweettags, hasn't traded on this site in eons-
But when she did trade- only had good feedback.
Are you even sure its the same person
Third, when you say Took you for 4000.00
this would pertain to a sale, which isn't allowed on this site/forum
and I would assume anyone sending that maount of cash did so by a trackable amount-
Its hard for me to believe Amanda just suddenly started scamming and her first "score was for thosuands of dollars"
The information your providing is vague at best-
and as you yourself - are posting this, as a new trader, first time post- I am skeptical to just take one word over the other.
Especially since Amanda left trading with a solid reputation.

i am sure theres a rule on this site
that one cant post negative feedback about another user in their first 90 days as a member, simply to avoid someone signing on at the library and giving someone a blast
im quite seriuos that i dont believe the story for a minute
who in their right mind would send $4000 for things to a person, especialy to a person who as i recall had a small list of items
even 10% of that amount would be a great score for a scammer
it would be much more credable if we knew who you were and more of the nuts and bolts of the story
care to show yourself?? or are you comtent to hit and run ??

This is odd, yet interesting.. Perhaps the item(s) purchased were Premium items only, thus would validate the price?? but it does sound fishy for a first time poster...

I am not going to let this thread continue.
FCORONADO74, you are a new user. Your email is from a free site. You have no other posts aside from this one-
The simple facts are this.
Anyone deciding to buy anything, shoudl research the seller/business before hand. Not after.
An amount as you are describing for a first time buy is ludicrous. Pure and simple-
As far as the details-
Sweettagz was a user here, she has not logged on in some time, and has not traded in a long time.
When she did trade, she had positive remarks.
If you decided to pay 4000.00 by cashiers check, to someone- I would have hoped one would run a trader/seller check FIRST
Rather than after, but here is a break down on information regarding cashiers checks
A check written by a financial institution on its own funds. It is then signed by a representative of the financial institution and made payable to a third party. A customers who purchases a cashier's check pays for the full face value of the check and usually also pays a small premium for the service. These checks are secured by the funds of the issuer - usually a bank - and include the name of a payee (the entity to which the check is payable), and the name of the remitter (the entity that paid for the check).
There are many many safer modes to pay someone-
and being as you are according to your information a US user, and she is a US user, if you had no prior dealings, sending an ammount like that, is irresponsible.
My suggestion would be to contact the bank from where it was issued.
Find out if it was cashed, and get the information -
Whom cashed it, what acocunt.
And then file a police report, immediately. Ask your bank, or financial instituion for information on Federal Complaints and Legla options.
If you act quickly you might be able to get some help or support -
Feel free to contact me, or another moderator for private help-
But your main concern should be contacting the bank wher eyou had the cashier check drawn up- and speak to the police or ban officals on your options.
