First, I’m so happy you found this card. Second, I had this childlike hope when I opened this thread that there was going to be an “aww, shucks” moment where you misplaced it somehow. But, humans being humans, it wasn’t the case.

So, how do you get the card back? I’m definitely curious.

Brian has reached out to the guy on Facebook and we await his reply. We have his name and location and I have a copy of my REA invoice and pictures of the card in my case in Chicago. I'm hopeful I'll get Matty back, preferably without involving the police.

Do you think the FB guy is the thief or just an innocent purchaser from the thief?

Great question. I’m thinking the latter…

Me too. Thief probably flipped it as fast as he could.

I would advise against any of this contacting people on facebook or even posting about it. You may be compromising the investigation.

Very wise. May also be a good idea to temporarily lock this thread? In the meantime, any pertinent information that anybody may wish to provide can be forwarded via PM to OP or his attorney. Just a thought.

Frank, that is really great you found the card. I hope you get it back in one piece. When this is over do you mind telling us who the person is, assuming you think they are a thief or are knowingly selling stolen goods. It would be nice to know this is so we don’t deal with him (and maybe get screwed) in the future.
