Scammed buying a PC off Facebook - What do I do?
Hey all,
Yesterday I purchased a gaming computer from Facebook Marketplace. The guy seemed kind of fishy as he wanted me to pay in cash and meet outside his noodle shop.
He said everything was working fine but it turns out the PC crashes when you try to play any games and always boots up into repair mode! The wifi also doesn’t work either.
I told him the issues and he said that it’s because I’ve done something to it when I was setting it up and installing games.
However I’ve left it untouched and have not reset anything.
And to the wifi problem, he just said to use an Ethernet cable and not use wifi!
He refuses to refund me and I’m not sure what to do. I understand I should have seen the red flags, and he keeps asking me random questions like my age. Does anyone know if I can do anything here? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
