Couple ground rules here if we actually want to see this through:
1) No threats of violence. 2) Don't talk to the guy anymore. We know he's reading this (which makes me happy - he gets to watch this and there's not a thing he can do about it at this point) but there's no sense in making the situation worse at this point. We have what we need to get him. Theft over $500 is a felony in the US. 3) Need someone to take point on dealing with the police or a mod. Ideally, it would be the OP. We absolutely do not need multiple people bugging the cops on the same issue. If we don't get this, we'll end up patting each other on the back and calling it a day and this guy walks away unscathed. Need to make sure this isn't dropped. 4) Owner should compile Chris' pertinent information (name, address, prior convictions, current financial transactions, copy of this thread and all his PMs) and send it to the police after speaking directly with a detective. 5) Accept the fact that the money is probably gone at this point. This guy makes a living by preying on people and immediately getting rid of the money so they can't recover it. He doesn't care if he gets sued because he'll just use the money from his next theft to pay off anyone who does manage to sue him. 6) Understand that the best way to hurt this guy is to put him in jail where he belongs. At this point, it won't even be challenging. tl;dr: Organize, be professional and calm, hit this douche where it hurts most.

I wouldn't say the money is gone for good. Paypal may do something, or the credit card company could do something. CC companies are usually pretty good about taking care of cardholders.

Lots of people have paypal tied directly to their bank accounts. If the OP used a credit card, he'll get the money back. If he used his bank account, it's gone and paypal will not reimburse.
The bank might help him out but I doubt it. Would like to take this opportunity to point out that you should never ever use your bank account as a primary funding source for your paypal acct. Edit: My PM to him said "We're coming for you" - I think he thought that meant physically. Boy was he wrong

Yeah, very true. I didn't even think of the fact that the OP might have used a bank account for his Paypal account. Because you shouldn't do that. Ever. Never buy anything over the internet unless it's on a credit card. Period.

Hey Darkjak I came into work this morning, and literally the first thing I read in my emails pertained to you. If you haven't all ready done so, google the Dept. of Justice's Internet Crime Complaint Center, and file a complaint there.

I think people need to start using this guys picture for meme's.
Something like: "I don't always steal people's money, but when I do" "HERP DERP. HERP HERP DERP."
