Well, he *probably* drives a 1998 KE Ford Laser, is a bit of a car sound
nut.

My sad story of internet buyer beware -

I got ripped off in a transaction in the newsgroup aus.forsale - and I
should have seen it coming. Unfortunately, I didn't, and now I'm going
to have to get my money back the hard way - through the courts.

Unfortunately, to lodge a statement of claim, I require a real name and
a real address. Which none of the agencies involved can legally give me
due to privacy laws. The police won't help because as far as they are
concerned it is a civil matter (your tax dollars at work). And when I
spoke to a legal officer at the court, and said in frustration that I
"might as well take up fraud as it seemed like an excellent way to get
money without any fear of reprisal", he almost choked, I had to actually
tell him that I was joking. It's starting to seem like a good idea.

So, help me out here.

The future defendant:
* Paul Briggs (quite possibly a false name)
* Resides in Melbourne, quite possibly he lives or works near
Tullamarine.
* vipchamp at msn.com
* Bank account details:
Branch: National Bank, Tullamarine
BSB: 083451
Account #: 048488156

If anyone can point me in the direction of Paul (ie. give his
residential or work address, or information that can lead me to him) I
am happy to make it worth your while. I can claim any legitimate
expenses incurred in locating Mr Briggs through the courts. If you're
cheaper than a private investigator then you are still affordable to me.

If you work at the National, and wish to help me out, then I would be
happy to discuss the matter with you.

If anyone wishes to offer to break Paul's legs for a reasonable sum,
feel free to do so. Although I'd rather not throw good money after bad.

If anyone wishes to flame, laugh at or generally deride me, please do
so. Just don't be as dumb as I was, and learn from my mistake.

Regards,

Stuart Anderson.
