What is the name of your state?She is from maine, I'm from Michigan.

Hello, I need some help.

A month ago, I bought $725 of parts from a younger guy in Maine that I met on the internet classified ads. I sent his mother a Post Office Money Order, which she signed & cashed. No parts came. He made many excuses for not sending my parts, he told me his mother was going to send them, & now he won't answer his phone. His mother has told me she thinks he doesn't have the parts anymore? She also told me she did not ship any parts to me. I have purchased parts from this guy in the past with no issues. But now I think I'm screwed.

Is there any legal action (or other actions) I can take other than Maine's Small Claims Court? I'm in Michigan; I don't really want to travel to Maine.

Since I used a Post Office Mail Order, can I file this as criminal act? Do I get a Police report?

Any input would be appreciated! Thanks!!
