Nicely doneI've been working withBoru13 to track down information about the seller, "lamanian" aka Benjamin Root, in the event that the items which have been paid for are not received by those members who have sent money to him.
I'm hoping he's just the world's worst communicator and will actually fulfill his obligations to the members here. Then we can all move on.
In case he doesn't, here is information we were able to find online which can be used in furtherance of any claims which need to be filed with PayPal, banks, credit card companies, police etc.

Do you have his email?Thank you, but if he is banned, how is he supposed to let us know if he does decide to ship?
broot1375@yahoo.comDo you have his email?
LikeCondolences to those who were robbed. This is getting to be regular here and that is sad.
Please buyers, stop patronizing PPFF sales posts. Help make PPFF anathema around here!
Thankyou for the info!Do you have his email?
NoHas anyone received what they paid for, any communication fromlamanian .
Appreciate the update, I’d recommend trying to recover your funds if at all possible.I haven’t received what I paid for and have not received communication via email or BladeForums.
I’d add my name. I have tried reaching out to no avail.Hey Guys, Was anyone able to contact this guy? The number has been disconnected, I have messaged a number of his friends with no reply yet. I am thinking about notifying the Ohio state police in regards to this matter. Would anyone be interested in adding their name to complaint also, let me know. Thanks, Rustic59
Looks like a fraud report can be filed with Dayton PD, though I’m not sure if everyone has to do one or if multiple people can sign on to one report.Thanks, figured I would try that. Found him on FB, doesn’t answer, also been messaging his contacts, only one response, which was hasn’t seen him in years. I will keep whoever wants to be involved and contact when I find out if I have to write a formal letter or the correct way to approach this. Thanks
If a person insists on F&F payments they're immediately suspect. At best they're running around tax laws and user agreements.He has scammed me on the ammo as well. Have not heard from him all week. Will never use PPFF on bladeforums again.
