I really wish the cop's would go through with what they say but they never do. If they would just do follow through even on just a couple cases I bet it would cut way down on scamming. All he has to do is just like most scammer's do with paypal and supply the police with a tracking number to each person then it will be your word versus his in which the police can't do anything since you can't prove you didn't the actual item. It's happened plenty of time's before where the people online get a box of porn, paypal/police get a tracking number and close the investigation, and the scammer get's away clean. Good luck but I honestly wouldn't hold my breath on getting anything back unless you can do a chargeback through your credit card company.
