    Amazing, and a big congratulations! When this thread started, I would have bet money....but not $4K, that you were never going to see the book or your money returned.

    And I think Sid deserves a medal and then some for all of his great assistance.

    Again congrats Eric......and Sid, I tip my hat to you Sir.

    Ain’t it just....... I’m so pleased. When it first started, I offered my help and at the back of your mind, you are hoping you don’t make a fool of yourself and get nothing back for our man.... for once, it worked out. Eric has been really patient though, it can’t have been easy sitting there waiting on bank transfers for such an amount, but I think had we not persevered, this criminal would’ve walked away $4000 up and laughing. I think as it is, he walks way with his tail between his legs, police record that's going to be very slow to be shut down, and the knowledge that now he’s paid back, if he refers to some of my emails, he might feel a little less than comfortable for a while yet. Italians and Sicilians know how long we can hold grudges!

    I have to say just incredible. Sid you are really a super person. Some here may know I am a retired Police officer and when I first saw this thread, I would have bet $10,000 that Eric's money was gone. It is fantastic Eric received his money back and You Sid are super guy. If you ever need anything I could help with I would and If you ever come to the US you have a free place to stay in Tennessee anytime. :)

    PS Eric congratulations on your returned money. It is so great when a good guy wins in the end. :)

    Fantastic news!

    Great to see a cheating scumbag brought to ground.

    Sid, it would be an honour to hear (though what goes in Vegas, stays in Vegas..?)

    There’s a fair bit to tell, if you do want to hear a few things, and you think it might be useful, I’m happy to share in private mostly!, although there’s a fair number of anecdotes I could start a whole sub forum with!

    Wow. Just Wow. Never thought it would happen. Great effort by the tifosi. Well done. Best thread ever. Kind of sad it will end.

    Ok, Sid. I may need help. I have a thing for this woman...but she is married. You think you can do something to the husband? ;) :D

    Seriously, you should be the FChat "Man of the Year." You deserve all the accolades from the Ferrari community for this unparalleled act.
