So, until you can get the UPS guys to cancel the delivery you can't do anything. (I know that they are closed today.)

hows that package recovery with ups going? or did he already get it. i just started reading this thread but ur best chance to recovering ur games is to get em before he does.

well since you have his address, you could always go over there and beat your games outta him! Yeah, the trip might cost more than you're out but the satisfaction would oh so be worth it....
 
I am working on something with UPS, because I am close with an employee. I'm not going there to kick his ass. I'm a man of peace ya know. But the authorities will take care of that if I don't get anything back. James, please cooperate with me. Don't get your life ruined over this.
 
[quote name='sj41']James could be some bigass dude. Might be risky.[/quote]

so you bring along Goldberg! Seriously though I know what you mean. I would want to resolve it the right way but if I got no satisfaction through legal channels - wow by all means I ain't above fixin' it with my own 2 hands.... :twisted:
 
Like someone said earlier, James might have gotten a new username so be on the lookout for newbies with bad typing skills.

Yeah, but wouldn't that account for just about all of them?

Exactly, it narrows it down to about 98% of those posting here on CAG.
 
[quote name='metroidkiller9']i sent you a pm about sC:pt a week ago. you shoulda traded with me. im the trade master. this is your punishment.
just kidding of course. believe me ive felt your pain on a much larger scale. i hope you get your shit back.
and then you should trade with me...[/quote]

Stil trying to get Gaiden off me? :)


As for this James fellow: You're either retarded for getting hacked, or retarded for thinking you could get away with this shit. Your choice.
 
UPDATE[/size=18]

I finally contacted my friend that works at the store that shipped out my item. She told me to go in their first thing in the morning and they will cancel the delivery. If the package was delivered, then the person at the address I shipped to will have a problem with UPS and the authorities. It is looking like I have a good shot at either getting back my stuff or getting compensated for my loss.

James, you really need to contact me to avoid getting yourself in trouble.
 
[quote name='sj41']Jmon22, what else is there about James that you know?[/quote]

Not much, sorry to say, other than what has been said in this forum and ip addresses and such.

sounds good, might still b a little early to say but it looks like u got lucky the problem was found this fast.... i never thought i'd say this but i hope UPS is really slow on delivering that package.
 
Well it would be wonderful if you get your stuff back but I'd rather kick his ass rather than get a couple of games.

nah, i got one. splinter cell is a different story.
 
Jeez, I went to sleep at 5 am last night, and come back to find around 200 more posts on this!

MOP20, I can only say that you have created an alliance within this thread. Everyone has put together their efforts to help you with this problem, and we will continue to help until we see the problem resolved.
I think I'm going to start sucker-punching every "James" I meet, in hope of the off-chance that I land our cuplrit with a bloody nose.

And I also want this thread (along with the Cloudspekk debacle) to serve as an example to anyone who tries to abuse the trust that we give when we trade or sell over this site. People are not stupid, they will not forget about the items or money that you didn't send them, and they will try to get it back. And everyone else on the site who believes in a fair deal will do everything in their power to make your existence as painful as possible. To the sons of James and Cloudspekk, you have been warned...

Uh, just another heads up, not that this really proves anything, but I live in colorado, and I know for certain there's a 719 area code(as opposed to the 2 that were posted before as the "only" ones).

I've read most of this and this James character is incredibly shady, and i hope he gets what's comin to him.
 
[quote name='pimp tyranny']redgopher jacked me out of about $20. really pissed me off.[/quote] We will take care of him too. :boxing:
 
I really appreciate everyones support on this issue. I'm supposed to meet with the UPS people in the morning, then I'll have a grasp on what is happening.
 
[quote name='pimp tyranny']redgopher jacked me out of about $20. really pissed me off.[/quote]

not meaning to hijack the thread, but gopher explained, in detail what happened, with many scans and things like that. i think yours just fell under bad luck as opposed to being ripped off
 
We're all behind you. I've been in this topic since 1:35 in the morning. This has been my favorite topic in CAG history for me. Also, I hate James and the way he has acted and I hope this has taught him a lesson. Good luck. :)
 
I have the lastest response from James. This came from when I asked him if the "hacker" left the tracking number in his PM's. Enjoy!

Dude I already told you that i deleted all my pm when i found out what happen. And what do you mean i blew my cover i have nothing to hide because that isn't my address that was the guy that you were dealing with. I said that was my address so everybody could know the hacker address. That wasn't my address and i have nothing to worry about and you can go ahead and filed the mail complaint because it won't be knocking on my door. And how the hell am i suppose ti corporate when i don't have none of your stuff.

MY RESPONSE FOR JAMES:

You have proven continuously throughout this thread you are a dishonest person. This "hacker" you speak of seems to be a good person, because your "hacker" actually completes trades. You may think "man, I'm 14 years old and I am a badass because I scammed a free Splinter Cell:pandora Tomorrow and XBOX Live card". What you fail to realize is that if you haven't received the package yet, you will never get it. You see, my adult mind is more advanced than what you know. I was smart enough to use UPS, and they assured me they will stop shipment ASAP if it hasn't been delivered. If it has been delivered, do you know how much trouble you are going to get in? Not only will UPS and the authorities track you down, but your parents will probably kick you off the internet, and you will have nothing else to jerk off to. I have given you several chances, and all you do is pout "It wuz he haker, i sware too GOD". You have one last chance to resolve this with me, because tomorrow I am acting on this first thing in the morning. You better lube up because you will be fucked.
 
Man, I've been a newbie lurker for a few months now, and the horror stories that I've witnessed influence me to not trade here! I'm sure this is a small percentage of ")$%W*$)'s mess it up for everyone but it seems I read more and more horror stories of traders here.

this is actully i beleive only the 2nd trade gone wrong. there have been scammers like dealmaster, but he is ALWAYS exposed within a matter of mins.

there was the red gopher thing, which as i said was explained and i feel to have been bad luck, and the other day i saw someone post that manimal didnt complete his end of the trade, which isnt cool because he has a good rep here.

maybe its just bad timing that I 'have the priviledge' of Cloudspeck, redcloud, and james-speck.
 
The saga continues tomorrow morning...yay!

Until then, I think I'm going to bed. Refreshing this thread every 5 seconds is starting to hurt my eyes.

Hey buddy there is a really easy solution for this,

A. Call Judge Milian, Judge Mathis, or sue him in local small claims court for internet fraud and for you stuff back, carries really really serious charges and you could represent yourself.

B. Um, i guess there really is no b except call your states attorney and let them know that someone is commiting internet fraud against a resident of *your state* and that you would like some advice and he'll point you in the right direction.

Bottom line is there are serious laws against that carry serious crimes, Internet fraud is considered a class 2 felony dangerous stuff man he could serve up to 5 years in prison

I know there are laws in place. He is screwed if he doesn't get himself back into this thread and resolve this ASAP.
 
Ok, after reading each of the posts in this thread very closly, i have come to a conclusion. THATS ALOT OF POSTS.Ok i'm lieing, i got to page 4 then said fuck it.Anyways......have you contacted the dude in VA..wether it be james or mr. hack and sell...that would prove a bit...But i guess james is more afraid of bein prank called then legal action.

Hey, maybe cloudspekk hacked jameses account because nobody would trade with him on his account and he was too lazy to make a new account!!!!!!!lol JOKEING :lol:

Manimal rocks....he gave me more then we traded for!lol
 
You see, my adult mind is more advanced than what you know.

For some reason, I found this to be fuckING HYSTERICAL. I can see some guy spinning around in his computer chair, twiddling his fingers together and saying "Devious. Purely devious." HA! Good times.

Anywho, James, why aren't you answering your phone?

MOP20, should the little prick make you take legal action (something you should do regardless), Then YOU HAVE TO GET ON JUDGE JUDY. Then we
can all watch as this social defect gets burned by Judy, and you just sit there and smile!!!

I can't think of a more appropriate quote at this point, and I know a few of you will know why:

BigNick: It's better than the Simpsons!!!

(Ledhed knocks fists with BigNick)

Cuz only Mr. Potato Head can keep it so real...
 
Oh my god. I can't believe I did it. I simply couldn't get enough of this drama, so I read the entire CloudSpekk thread. It was, far and away, the most entertaining thing I've ever seen on a forum. I had read bits and pieces of it, but had never seen the story through to it's end. It has suspense, humor, candor, bitter rage, heroes, villians (well, only one actually)...

For those of you who have as much time on your hands as I do, and just LOVE this thread and would like to see something strikingly similar, and at the same time learn why the name Cloudspekk blasphemy on these boards, please, indulge:

Yep. I can agree with that.. It sounds almost like a Hanibal Lector-ism.
