The actual Verbal Dave already posted this on the scammers thread, but this guy is obviously still out on the prowl and I'd like to try to prevent others from getting scammed like me. He happened to accidentally IM me again tonight, so I tried to get some more info out of him and flesh out his bad lying skills. Here is our convo copy and pasted from just a few minutes ago

He scammed me into sending him a Web Certificate, and I called customer service of the website and they said that he money I sent was claimed by someone completely different from the name and email I sent it to, unfortunately by law they couldn't provide me with this guy's real info, but I'm not finished trying to get my money back... Just don't fall for this guy's lies, but at least have some fun with him if he instant messages you, because he is a horrible liar ;) .
