Dumb, dumb, I feel sorry for the guy, but he should have been much more careful to verify the person who he sent money to was really a relative. When people get old, they seem to get dumber. If I was that guy, I would have been too ashamed to have my picture taken.

This is an old scam and since he willingly sent the money not much you can do.

Remember to always ask questions. I had a situation where someone called me and said they needed all my info again for one of my magazines that I subscribe to. I asked a few questions before I gave them anything they quickly hanged up.

I think Walmart Corporation is as much of a low life business as the person who cheated this older gentleman.

By the way AmeriCAN, maybe your good for nothing gun dealers can stop suppling their scumbag counterparts in Canada. A border doesn't define a group of 'good' people vs 'bad'.

Sure AmeriCAN. There is something so wrong with society that everyone has to have heat on them so they can blow the next guys brains out.
Your 2nd amendment means nothing to other countries.

Well, when your counrty is invaded by gang banders, terrorists, etc..., and you have nothing to defend yourself with, you'll change your mind about MY 2nd amendment and wanting a gun to protect yourself and your family. I know I'll defend myself & family to the end.
Hey Alex, look up "Para-Ordnance" its a firearms manufacturer located in Toronto, Canada. Yes we have gun dealers, but you have the manufacturer. lol
