This bit intrigued me - do the US cops really take Internet fraud seriously? I can't imagine the UK plods exerting themselves if the roles were reversed. But maybe I'm being overly cynical.

Happy to update the thread title to something more appropriate if people feel its not right.

Well done for getting your money back and for handling things in such a gentlemanly manner; I would have just dropped the PD on the scrote, sat back and enjoyed the show.

Possibly because Brian was hoping they would turn up?
Just because it looked like deliberate fraud doesn't mean it was. The only person who knows that for sure is Brian. There are lots of possible explanations ranging all the way from laziness and stupidity through to actual fraud.
Chances are we will never know for sure.
