instead of pointing the finger, when adam comes on talk to him, get some screenshots, statements, proof of him transferring the money, ask other people on facebook who have been scammed if that is the same bank account/name, it sounds like a shit load of money has gone including people from overseas! something this big and publicised usually catches someones attention eventually down the line for example neck nomination has gone viral due to social networking youtube etc. you cannot go wild with a member without first having the proof. did you not think to pay by credit card or an online transfer with protection? because fuck me if i was handing 5k over to someones bank id attach a nuke bomb to it incase shit went down which it clearly has im not digging at you but your 36 you should be much more experienced and wiser to come up with solutions yourself this forum is good its a good community and as said above if you calm down and go about it a different way people will stick together and help you out instead of saying "shit happens it werent my money sorry dude and leave it" sleep it off if you can get back online when your heads fresh talk to adam and start a new thread with proof pictures more info if turbotobz is nice enough and we can all come up with a solution and for the record police wont do jack shit for you :/ im sorry for you i truly am but just think about it after the red mist has decended buddy
