I sold an item on craigslist and catered to an out of state buyer. He paid via paypal and came to pick the $1,700 item in person. As soon as he left he called paypal AND the police to file a police report, saying the item was to be shipped and i didn't send him the item! He is and older gentleman and when i called the police to talk with them, the detective he had already chosen sides. I couldn't get 1 word in over the detectives screaming and verbal assault over the course of the 4 minute conversation. The police keep stalking and calling me saying i'm going to be arrested on felony theft charges over $1,500 if i don't send him the $1,700 back! I sold a used fat tire kit for a motorcycle that was valued around $4k but i sold it cheap b/c i needed bill money fast. I have a receipt and 2 neighbors remember seeing him picking it up that morning, but the police don't care. I sold my kit for bills and i can't afford to hire an attorney or post a bail on something i didn't do and i certainly don't want to sit in jail. What can and what should i do????????????? And can i legally tell the police to leave me alone??????????????
