It's been reported to the police. There isn't much else to do but wait for their investigation.

There's a lot more that can be done! Filing a report is tantamount to doing nothing.

We should reaffirm his identify (by having someone local confront him), and then ensure that it follows him. I would think it would be hard for him to get a job or find a date with people always informing his associates that he's a thief.

I don't think everyone's trying to get. Some of us are just busy. But once again, his promises are not confined to the virtual world, and his debts to me are not settled until he pays me what he owes.

As far as I understand (from JohnHarmer), TF is in Beijing and his identity is known. (Can JohnHarmer or anyone else confirm this?) Several of us have sent documents to JohnHarmer which he is going to translate into Chinese and file a complaint with the Beijing police. However, if TF's identity and/or whereabouts are not known, then I think banding together to hire a private investigator is our best bet. I wanted to do this a month ago. Speaking for myself, I think one obstacle is that people don't want to reveal their identity and so it's hard to trust others. If we're going to go the PI route, I think a group of us are going to have to work together using our real world identities.
