    Tell him you'll give him 48 hours to respond or you'll call ATF.

    Call ATF when he doesn't respond because it sounds like you got scammed.

        Huh???

        BATFE will advise that it's a civil matter as, at least so far, no federal laws have been broken.

            Out his user name & real name here if you're confident you got jacked. You have an "email" or a PM from him?

            I'd say you are SOL. Money order is cash essentially and not really traceable. Sounds like you also were hasty & didn't do a proper transaction.

              May as well call HUD and La Migra as well.

              ATF doesn't care about some internet scammer.

                  Postal money order = mail fraud go to your post office and file a claim/charges. Western Union money order = wire fraud = call FBI = tough s**t = civil problem.

                              With a reply like this did you send the right address to ship to?
