I got Punk'd.

Whoa there jimmym. There's the theoretical side of the law and then there's the practical side. If Lou wants to get his money back through legal channels he'd have to file a civil law suit against this person and, more than likely, he'd have to file it in the jurisdiction where this person lives. The cost of filing the suit, traveling to that jurisdiction to try the case and the cost of litigating the case would far, far exceed the amount he's owed.

In theory, yeah, I'm sure he'd love to sue this guy. In practice to do so would cost him a lot more than he'd receive in damages. The smart thing to do is exactly what he's doing... it's the fastest way to get his money back, and the least expensive route as well.

He can, of course, report this to the authorities (and he may well do that, I don't think he's said either way whether he will or won't), but it will then be up to them whether any criminal charges are brought.

I do understand this but there are times I am afraid when we have to suffer our personal losses when fucked by a shit but the law can deal with this scum and in this case its best to get the twat arrested and I for one would be happy to contribute a few $ to Aequitas to help his bankroll back up just to know that this shit who STOLE from him is getting his due rewards in the correct way.

On reflection though its Lou,s desicion and I will respect what he does as we must remember he was the victim in all this.

If Canadians swore like the Brits, Canadians would be a whole lot cooler.

[bunny]

We're already 'cool', no need to swear to be cooler.

Where are you from Mel?

[jimmym]

What a load of Fuckinn bollocks you Canadians swear much more than us motherfuckin stupid wankin twatin brits, all bastarding day you Candaians use shit Ass Monkey Blow Job words. The Fuckin French learned you lot how to talk butthole c0ck launguage and they teach their kids words such as Carpet Muncher, Clit and even cum just to describe food.

The twatin Turks though well fuck me they really know how to cock-suck with their mouths just to talk to someone, dyke is a commonplace word and even faggot has a second meaning.Scotish people cant even talk to us English on the phone without swearing Lesbian masterbater Motha Fuckers is just what they call their sisters and penis-breath pr1ck is what a girl would say to her boyfriend on many a time after kissing.

So how can you even suggest that we Brits swear its just not pussy retard right. sluts yes thats right son-of-a-bitch tit, vagina there the only words us brits use wh0re perhaps now and again.

Jimmy, I think when I'm drunk I can pretty much swear with the best of them.

[Tony Cheval]

Personally, I find it amusing how some people think they know better how to handle this than the actual victim WHO JUST HAPPENS TO BE A LAWYER.

Chill, he's got this.

[Talking Poker]

Thank you. Have a little faith, people.

When talking to the "accused," I asked him something like: "What's wrong with you, don't you know I'm a lawyer?" He replied: "I didn't know." LOL.

Saying that I got this is an understatement. With the amount of information I have, and the willingness of my sources to cooperate, it's merely a question of whether or not I wanna play ping pong w/ a tennis racket paddle.

[Aequitas58]

Come on man, save it for another thread - I don't think anyone wants to sift through this shit.

[Talking Poker]

I read almost 2 sentences of it before skipping to the next post.

Consider it his contribution to your longest thread of the month chances.

[bunny]

I'm sure AeQ will do the right thing.

Let him first collect his money and then he can call the authorities on him.

Has this twat been banned from here yet?

[Aequitas58]

Jimmy, I saw your post and was ready to reply... then I saw this. It encapsulates everything I was going to say, and it even worded it better.

C'mon, RD would never use "worded" in a post.
