Just read a couple of the threads (some of them aren't working), What a Dirtbag. People like him want taking to a very dark alley and topping.

Surely Paypal can help with this via the Police. Paypal have to have certain details; bank accounts, card details address etc. before you can use the system. Must be easy enough to sort it out?

From what I have read Paypal don't really care and aren't being very helpful to the police.
