Howdy Harry,

Daggum..what does this feller mean when he says he wants payment info ? Does he want you to pay him off..or complete the final details of his investigation ?

You might want to consider changing out yer hard-drive for a new 'clean' one..and put all info somewhere safe. Also,you might want to take the battery out of your cellphone,when you're at home..it can be used for both a tracking device and a listening device. If you call his bluff--then you might want to think about moving everything somewhere else..but I'd hate to see ya do all that and find out this dude is bogus. If ya have the money..you should git a tap detector or have yer place swept..a good sweeper device..ain't cheap..but it could save your behind..and let you know for sure..if yer being surveilled.

I'm rootin for ya man !

Have a good one !

Harry, it is too bad that this kind of thing happens. From what it looks like is that some stupid kid pulled a fast one on you. He sees that it is CAD, so he goes and buys a load of weed (in this case an ounce) and then wondering whether or not it will be sent, he recieves it and knows that there is nothing you can do about him paying you, so he sends you a threatining e-mail. It seems like BS to me because if he really was working for authorities he would not have sent you an email, he would have gone to more drastic measures. Hope everything goes well, and like Torog said, I am also rooting for ya man cuz your a really cool guy. Hope all goes well!

[hipEstoner]

Are you sure that he's not bluffing? if what you posted is the actual e-mail, they're alot of mispelled words. Is that the way the cops would present themselves. It sucks to see a fellow smoker in trouble. good luck
peace

[abcmofo]

what a cunt! sorry to hear about the shite mate, hope it dont affect operations. sounds like hes havin you on matey, spice aint a very british name.... but then dont know, what a cunt. if i pass through plymouth ill take a bat an chain round to that address an see if he's for real

[GHoSToKeR]

Sorry to hear about this, harrybud.

However, this guy does just sound like some punk who thought it would be easy to get free weed. I notice that the ship-to address was in Plymouth, UK, but then he said that the Vancouver police 'are waiting'. This is obviously bullshit. I doubt that the police would contact police half-way across the globe just to bust one guy who sells a bit of weed, you know? lol

I wonder if any regular members of the board live in the vacinity of this guys address? Maybe they could pay him a visit? lol

Again, harrybud, it sucks to hear this kinda shit. I can't help but feel guilty on behalf of pricks like this that take advantage of people who are only trying to help. Good luck, dude.

[del...]

it's obviously a kid trying to weasle out of payment and not LEO. i can maybe help a bit if you send any info you have on him to:
[email protected]

[robert42]

Wow man thats a bastard. Want me to go to his adress and 'take him out' lol
Don't worry this is probly just some kid who couldnt think of a better excuse to not send the payment. hes a bluffer and anyway its not like he knows where u live or anything. Whats he gna do ring the police and say "hey someone sold me pot?" if he was a policemen hes out of duristiction and anyway he just some little 16 yr old kid trying to pull a fastone. I say fuck him what goes around comes around. If im ever in Plymouth i'll be sure to pack a few petrol bombs lmao

All the best

[rysk8er420]

I definately agree with everyone else that its just some punk trying to scam you. Don't worry it's happened to me before when i was younger, and it sucked, but i learned something from it, don't deal with or buy/sell to people you don't know. Its just too sketch sometimes.

[hoodedclum]

Damn harry, that really sucks royally mate, i did'nt realise you did cad on all your orders, i thought that was just for the samples. Maybe once you have a few trusted customers you should just stick with them and ditch the cad thing, thats just unfair for some little prick to take advantage like that.

Its blatently not the police, they wouldnt tell you they were coming for you that would just allow you to destroy all the evidence, just some little shit who was never gonna pay up

best of luck with that anyway,

peace.
