True. Maybe Peter could weigh in.
Anyhow, I would recommend filing a report with your local police department. If this is deemed to be a civil case, they won't get involved except to possibly refer you to small claims court. However, if it's deemed to be a criminal case of fraud, they should then contact the corresponding police department in the culprit's city, and fill them in on the situation. That department should then do their due diligence, and put the squeeze on him until he either returns your card or your money. Oftentimes, the wheels of justice can move rather slowly, but they do move.
