At 10:25AM on 7/9/12 a Craigslist user posted an ad for 2 tickets to Coldplay concert in Washington D.C. The link is http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/ ... 14351.html

At 11:46AM I responded to the ad that I was interested in the tickets. I received an email from matt bentley at [email protected]. This was followed by several emails about the tickets, payment, etc. Mr. Bentley reportedly had the tickets and could email them to me upon payment. He said he would accept electronic payment through Green Dot MoneyPak. I was not familiar with this form of payment but followed his instructions. This resulted in me buying a MoneyPak card at a local CVS Pharmacy. I then gave Mr. Bentley the card information at 1:40PM and at 1:43Pm he assured me the tickets would be delivered in 20-30 minutes. At 2:39PM he responded that he wasn't at his computer yet. At 4:32pm, after repeated emails from me, he wrote that his computer connection was down. This was the last communication received from Mr. Bentley.

I've reported him to IC3 and Green Dot. I'm not sure what else I can do. Thoughts/suggestions?
