A little over a week ago, I sold two silver 1 OZ coins from my silver bar/coin collection. I guy in NY bought them both for $75, for his sons birthday. I sent the package, got it insured, and went about. He kept writing me messages asking when it was going to come, he needed them ASAP. Message after message, they never came and he got more and more hateful every time. This morning a message from him popped up and I thought "what's he got to say this time?[
]". I clicked it and I was expecting him to be mad, as usual. Which he was. It was basically a death threat, saying he's a truck driver and he drives through my town once a week, and he has my address, name, phone number and he will find me. I reported him straight to eBay for threatening me, and told him to just calm down. Later on in the day and getting more p***ed off, we decided to report him to the New York Police Department tomorrow for what he wrote me. I emailed him an hour ago and sent a picture of the receipt, and said I will be reporting him to the police for threatening (murder) and other charges tomorrow morning. I get a message on my eBay account about 30 minutes ago saying I'm "Not fit for US selling standers" because I don't reply to my customers messages. WTF? This (scammer) guy sends me a death threat and eBay send me this, because I forgot to reply to some people's messages? I wrote on eBay's Facebook wall about the event and said if they hold me responsible I'll sue them. I don't know if this guy's joking about driving through my town or not, but still. His other messages sound legit, waiting for the package and asking when it's going to come every few days. I also had to change my Facebook name to "Annymo Guest" so he can't find me through there, and took screen shots with my Macbook of his message, payment and transaction. I still have the receipt too. And in the first place all I wanted to do is sell my silver Eagle and Maple to get the money in my Paypal so I can buy a bottle I wanted![8D]
