[#6786257]

Some urchin has emptied my paypal account at maplins and then like a dozy git bought £30s worth of dominos for delivery. So I have his address.

So short of bombers and shoe urine interface. Ideas?

Pour a bottle of fish sauce through his letter box.

Very lame, I know. Don't really do revenge.

Sorry to hear that.
How is it the police are not interested? Is it not theft?

Stick a note through his letterbox saying, 'you are a thick ****, but thanks for letting me know where you live. Put the money back in my account. Now, Please.'

Put something really smelly on the note for added effect, or a scary drawing or something.

Is PayPal not supposed to be more secure than using your bank details, as opposed to less...?

Presumably he emptied it into his own account- in which case can you send a request for a refund along with a note telling him you know his address?

Hatfield. I'm notts.

My mates a cop. Txt him asking how to report. He said police won't be bothered.

I rang the pizza place up and told them to either not deliver or spit in it.

It would involve investigation
Better stats to just go out to domestics and arrest everyone.

If her's got an outside tap stick a hose pipe on it and through his letter box.

It's a crime. The police deal with this sort of thing. If they don't, I'd love to know why not.

Maybe he sent the Domino's to someone he has a grudge against hoping that someone is going round to sort him out...Just a thought.

Phone up the dodgiest takeaway in the area, owned by gun-toting local gangsters if possible.

Phone up with your most genuine & charming voice, ordering a large takeaway for a party you're at with some unexpected (race of choice to suit takeaway speciality) friends that require feeding "Do you accept £50 notes, I have ID on me" etc.

Your credit cards are obviously, at home.

Bit of a trip just to wrap some bombers round his face sadly... You need to appeal to the good nature of some Herts dwellers on here!

Oh and it's online fraud. If your bank balance and credit card are linked to the account (and let's face it, most peoples are) then it's more likely the cops would be interested...

actionfraud? Misleadingly named since its pointedly a "reporting centre" i.e. they don't actually do anything..

"ring the police"

"they won't be interested"

"oh, all right then."

Seriously?

I think I'd be inclined towards a note through the door, something like "I hope you enjoyed the pizza, now I know where you live I'm going to enjoy making your life a total misery in future, unless you put the money back where you found it"
There's all sorts of remote retribution, like ordering all sorts of stuff from various places, like taxis, for example, and directing it all to his address.
😈
Looking at the photos, if it had happened to me, I could genuinely call on the services of a bunch of blokes not dissimilar to those guys; my brother and sis-in-law are members of a bike club based on an airfield not too far away, most of whose members were and are serving and ex-military; a pretty scary-looking bunch if you don't know them... 😉

A taxi every morning for 2 weeks at sometime between 3a and 4am (if he's a night bird, 9am -ish will work equally well).

Go to the police if they say they aren't interested take it up with your MP.

Who will probably give the divisional commander a hurry up.

PayPal wont report it to the Police for you.
Try legit routes best first, probably not the guys real name or even where he lives. If he's had access to your PayPal online then he'll also have your address...?

I am struggling to comprehend why if you have money stolen from a bank account then that is not a crime?
Maybe I life in a simple world?

Ask the officer who you report it to for his details and tell him you'll report him. Fraud is a serious crime. Maybe the officer thinks he's too busy investigating petty crime for stats/easy wins.

So if I fleece an oap of £280 in the next county I'm going to get away with it scot free?

Can someone show me how to hack the interwebz?

Local police don't deal with fraud any longer
Action fraud deal with it, and if it's not a series they basically do rock all
The govt brought that in, to take work from police forces, because there are not enough cops any longer
