I think your best bet is call the police first, the court.
Yup, see what the police say. At least have them document the issue.
If that doesn't get you anywhere, then court.

Quite Possibly...
But the funny thing is, I didn't even play online. i was playing batman, and i think my friend sent a friend request to me and Bam, banned.
So I sucked it up and got another xbox and the game and viola, back online.![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)

Craig, trust me I have plenty of ideas how I could mess with this guy. If this guy drives off and his tires fall off and dies somehow, I get traced I would be responsible. As much as I would love to get revenge, he could possibly trace my cell number as I traced his. I guess there is really nothing I can do, maybe in a few months down the line. I sent a email to a guy in the past who was spamming the shit out of craigslist with his number. I emailed him twice to stop spamming so much so I could view the listings properly. He sent me this hateful email threatening me. So I decided to post a free ad for a plasma on craigslist, saying to call me and I put his cell number. Well stupid me at the time had my last name displayed on my gmail, so he found out my number doing a search. And made about 3 ads for free laptops, and my phone probably got over 100 calls.
He eventually stopped, I guess I just have bad luck on craigslist haha

EDIT 1: I thought RROD was covered for 3 years? Even if you don't have the RROD DUDE SENT IT IN! They don't check at all, at all the systems they are getting in do you think they would bother?

Again, that is the beauty of sugar in the tank. It can't make him crash because the engine will be toast long before he gets up any kind of speed.
Based on your past (and present) experience maybe you should ban yourself from Craigslist.

I'm with Craig on this one. I'm a vindictive mf when somebody tries to take advantage of me or my family. First, I would call the police and file a report. They probably won't do anything but at least it's on file. Next, if you have a family lawyer go ahead and send a letter. It's probably not worth pursuing beyond that though. Report him to Craigslist. If I can't get my $170 back, then I am gonna do something to cost him more!
