Quick question here....since Ted was the one defrauded, was he ever actually apologized to?

I am generally good with apologies but without reading through all of the previous threads....was the buyer made whole? Did he get all his money back.
I suppose that would be the true test of an apology.

PayPal made the refund. Seller was told the card was fake. Seller then avoided all communication. If it wasn't for PayPal buyer never would've gotten a refund.

Maybe I am missing something here. But after reading through the thread, I can't believe the OP is allowed back on the board.

I think most of us feel the same way. He basically robbed another member and has never apologized to him(as far as I know). He made a half assed apology to the forum and never even really said what exactly for. Then has an attitude about it when people are questioning him.

All I do know is it is Leon's sandbox and he gets to make the rules.

That's one benefit of using PayPal . Still a hassle though .

Caveat emptor and all, but it would be nice if we didn't do things that actively endangered the emptors.

And yet Rob D (and others) have been banned. Crazy.

[chaddurbin]

why are scammers always so sensitive when you call them out on it?

i'm 100% positive if pp didn't refund the money the board would've never heard from him again.

In that case does PayPal get their money back from the seller? If not, and the "seller" still has the money, it seems fair to me he should give it back to the defrauded buyer.

Paypal gets their money back or they freeze the account but it is pretty clear that Anthony did not do right by the buyer, his apology was anemic, at best, and he was too defensive when confronted here. We must not have all the facts because it makes no sense to me either why he would be permitted to come back.

Anthony is lucky that it was not Lichtman who ended up with the card. The least of his problems would have been whether or not he was allowed back on the board.
