Bdjuf sees he has Paypal money and sends the Epass, and then Paypal reverses the transaction because nowadays they will only let you do an instant transfer for that amount when you have a positive history with them. What Paypal does is change the transfer to an e-check, and they wait for the funds to get withdrawn from the account owner's bank account before they approve the transfer again. When the transfer comes back insufficient funds, they cancel it as fraud. This is why you should NEVER do Paypal to Epass unless you 100% trust and know the person, it is way too easy to manipulate Paypal and it happens all the time...

*Edit* Oh yeah, and 50 scammers...
I was also thinking something like this might have happened, but the fact that Patrick hasn't contacted bdjuf back to let him know there was a problem is a red flag. Seems odd also that someone who's been doing business online for so long wouldn't already have a verified paypal account. Did the icq for sure come from Turboface's usual account?
