I wouldn't just let it rest, This kid needs to be taught a lesson in ethics and be held accountable for his actions. Just letting is rest if paypal goes in your favor is pretty much letting him off the hook for his attempt to scam you. I am not you but if it was me I would press the issue and make an example out of him.The decision of Paypal will be what steers our course of action at this time. If they find in our favor we may just be inclined to let it rest, but if they find in his favor we can and will go after Brandon and the guardian responsible for the bank account used in this transaction. In California the parents will be held financially responsible. From there getting the money is actually fairly easy if you are patient and do a little background work first.
