I've just deleted my number from the post. Don't want him to google his number and get a sniff of this.

There could be a possibility the post office staff know who he is then if he's a regular customer, I take it you're going to give them a ring?

Rang them but because of data protection they can't tell me as he has done business with them

It's a shame some people would rather follow the letter of the law than do what's morally right. I work in Post Office and I certainly wouldn't be protecting the privacy of a robbing scumbag.

Im gutted for you man! does he still have the camera advertised? I might contact him and see if I can pick it up

Work has been horrible. Can't think of anything other than this.

Try not to let it both you too much, after all we only learn from mistakes. If you keep on the case i reckon theres a high chance you will get your money back

The guy is an absolute joke, hes selling items from a number of locations around the UK, using different names and on one of his adverts it says "I'm attempting to sell these one last time, are there any genuine people out there who won't try and steal/fraud there way to these tickets."

Go to the police station, Ask them to ring the number and keep him chatting for more than 2 minutes and they can trace the number. They can then find and arrest him. They have the power to sieze and view the post office's CCTV and if it's the same bloke then BOOM you have your man. Can you not find an unscrupulous sod to go and 'rip him a new arsehole' for £50.

It doesn't take 2 minutes to locate a mobile phone, it takes only 2 seconds, they can see where you are, in which direction you're walking and where you were 10 minutes ago. I saw that on the telly , the only thing they need is the number...

I just deleted his number so he doesn't google it and find this thread.

Ok guys, I really appreciate your help but lets not go mad phoning him left, right and center. I don't want him to get suspicious. I will let the police deal with it the best they can. 


See I think all the camera stuff will weigh more than the paper, so if he has posted some paper that was weighed at the post office and then says the camera was in there but swapped over. He has shot himself in the foot.

Did you film your opening it?

[Carlos W]

It is also possible to fingerprint the paper, so stop handling it!

Put it all in a bag for now somewhere safe!
