Wow. Just wow. It's so sad this kid had to learn this lesson the hard way, but I hope that it doesn't deter him from future business with people on here. Dylan, yes there's some bad guys out there, but there's also a lot of really awesome, professional people on this site. Be cautious, but don't be overly paranoid.
Also, Dylan to screen shot just open the emails, click "prntscrn" and then "ctrl-v" to paste the screenshot into paint. Then save that to your computer, and upload to photobucket to copy the image link into a post here. It may take you a few screenshots, but do as many as it takes. If anyone knows a quicker way, jump in, but that's how I do it.
