    Ok, I'll drop him a note. I hate to point to the "he said, she said" threads but I don't know any other way.[/QUOTE]

    Thank you Jon Szanto. I completely understood where you were coming from when you were irritated that I did not post any more "proof" but, as seen by what he has done with the Imgur photos, he will change, morph and alter whatever he can so that he is able to keep his predatory scamming schemes alive and well. I think we are foolish to post the ways by which we have become wise to his games here, where he can read them. Like a termite that runs into a steel foundation, he'll just back up and go in another direction.

    If you would feel better knowing more specifics about how you can become 100% convinced beyond "he said, she said," feel free to PM me. Yes, it's like passing notes in grade school but, if it can help us to keep this creep contained I think it is worth it.

    Thanks for listening to my point of view and for alerting LenP of Pentrace.

    My thanks to one of the FPG "elders" who was thoughtful enough to forward this link to me this morning.

    http://members3.boardhost.com/PenMar...564112707.html

    Apparently, someone here alerted PenTrace's Moderator (LenP) to the Kudzu saga and my post from a few days ago. IMO, he or she did the pen community a real favor by spreading the word to our sister pen forum. Hopefully Fountain Pen Network was alerted as well.........

    I tried to send a message to the PenTrace admin via their Contact page, but I wasn't sure it had worked, as it then gave me an error to a different web-site. In the message I included the link to this thread.

    As I mentioned earlier, I'm a Pentrace member and contacted Len. He is a good steward of their forum and took all of this into consideration. All I did was supply the info.

    Thanks to all the people who have contributed to this and the above referenced threads. Although I probably would not have purchased the any of the pens advertised (for various reasons) I VERY much appreciate what others have done here. AND what I have learned.

    Again, THANK YOU!

    Who is Jason Mei? I sense that he is not getting much love here.

    He sold the same pen to multiple buyers then sent a $5 pen to one of the buyer of the $850 pen.

    I have to admit I laughed when I read that. What a little punk. That dude has the cojones of a brass monkey. I'll bet more than a few credit card charges got reversed when that happened. And now a thoroughly annoyed pen buyer has his mailing address.

    Just in case you never read this thread, it might be worth a look.

    The buyer who paid $850 for an Omas Arco pen from Jason Mei, and instead only received a cheap pen, has just recently managed to get Google to give her her money back, after a tough fight. It's currently believed "That dude" still has that money and in all likelihood he still has that pen.

    Plenty of people probably have his mailing address, including the authorities.

    I started, but only got to the third sentence, which read:

    "Jason then asked me to use either Cash Pay app or Google Pay instead because he didn’t want to pay PayPal’s fees and he was concerned about a hold on the funds because he hadn’t used his PayPal account for a while"

    That alone raises a sea of red flags. Run don't walk to the nearest exit! When there are irregularities in payment methods or shipping delays, along with a litany of excuses, that is virtually always trouble in spades.

    The buyer who paid $850 for an Omas Arco pen from Jason Mei, and instead only received a cheap pen, has just recently managed to get Google to give her her money back, after a tough fight. It's currently believed "That dude" still has that money and in all likelihood he still has that pen.
    That is assuming he ever had the pen in the first place. It could be a photo he got somewhere on the Internet. Sure, it really sucks that the buyer had to put up a tough fight to get her money back, but the important thing is that she did get her money back.

    Plenty of people probably have his mailing address, including the authorities.
    Plenty of people? If he has done this before, then how did he get away with doing it again? That is not a rhetorical question, I am simply curious as to how he was able to get away with it multiple times.

    If filing police reports does not do the trick, then perhaps "plenty of people" can send a joint letter or email with evidence to the District Attorney (or equivalent in his area). The wheels that squeak the loudest get oiled. Since he has been doxed, that also means lawsuits can be filed to recover lost funds. Stealing from people who have one's address is incredibly dumb.

    Anyways, thanks for cluing me into who Jason Mei is. I hope nobody else gets scammed by one of the bad apples!

    Rude and insensitive how? I poked fun at the scammer, not the scammees. It sounds like El Brasso will be in Sing Sing soon enough anyways. Kind of sad, as it did not have to be that way.

    Half-joke. Meant to be amusing to all, but extolling a criminal's bravery in the presence of his victims is uncouth.

    Point taken. My humble apologies if I offended anyone.

    Bravery? I would call it foolishness.

    I'm thinking maybe there is at least a half chance that his mailing address is a spoof or belongs to someone who can maintain plausible deniability.

    Why assume that he is some sort of criminal mastermind when the reality is he can't even manage two usernames on the same board?

    He is more like a pathetic junky, delusionally hoping that somehow these crappy cons won't come back to bite him. The guy is a loser in every sense of the word.
