My missus got scammed over the internet is there any way of trying to find any info from the bastards.
My other half paid for a caravan through FB and sent money to his bank. Realised it was a scam told the bank on a Saturday , but never heard back till the Wednesday for them to follow up the inquiry. By that time money had gone fro his account. The bank says they cannot do anythingFor a small fee paid in Bitco2ins I could solve it all for you.
Being serious it depends on the context. If its Ebay or Amazon or something like that then there should be a level of accountability.

Just wondering if I could find his IP address or anything. Got the Fraud department on to item. But it will take weeks and tbh not expecting a result.
Sickening when this happens. Hopefully the fraud department (I presume police?) will be able to help. If it was a bank-to-bank transfer then you should at least have the details of the account the money went to which is a start, but often scammers are crafty b@stards and cover their tracks well.My other half paid for a caravan through FB and sent money to his bank.

Report it mate. These people get away with a lot because folk feel foolish and too embarrassed to report it - no need, police will have seen it all before.My missus got scammed over the internet is there any way of trying to find any info from the bastards.
Good luckThe bank wont do anything. He has multiple accounts that I know , I am actually in contact with one of his aliases as I type this. Apparently he has mules taking the money through their accounts and passing it on.. cheers lads.
