Mitchell and I agreed to a trade in which I sent him $200 (2/24) and would then send him a Winchester 70 carbine 243 and Nikon scope for a limited edition Ruger Hawkeye stainless 7mm-08. I sent him a postal money order and was going to send the rifle to Beercroft’s once he confirmed the money was received. He was then supposed to send the Ruger to my ffl dealer. Once he received the money I never heard from him again. I sent numerous texts and made numerous calls and he would not respond.
I then called Beercroft’s and they knew him and said they would relay my message to him. This has been months ago and no sign of him until he posted yesterday about having a Ruger Hawkeye stock on my WTB post. When I texted the number he posted it came up with the old thread from months ago. He did not respond to that text either.
The money order was made out to and mailed to: Mitchell Fifield 1709 State Route 40 Greenwich, NY 12834 email Fordlevi28yahoo.com

I will forward this to my friend, he will look into it
If you have the receipt portion of the USPS, you can track it and they will tell you when and where it was cashed. If he put it through a bank account, there's your smoking gun.

Yep, that is the plan. Unfortunately the top part of the money order and receipt are locked in my desk drawer at work and the office has been locked up since March 20 when they kicked us out due to the pandemic. It will be at least May 15 before I can go back.

Actually I had a pic of the money order and envelope and that was enough to call the USPS automated system and find out that it was cashed on March 2nd. Not that I had any doubt that he cashed it.

Sorry to hear about the ripoff . Sounds like you are taking the appropriate actions and sooner or later this scammer will have his d--- in a (legal) wringer - that will cost him considerably more than $ 200 . Good luck , Tortoise .
