7) August 15, 2010 (present): No Ichiro PSA/DNA signed bat received from Mr. Joshua Hanson.
The last email from Mr. Joshua Hanson was July 18, 2010.
I have emailed him directly at [ichiro151@live.com],
I have emailed him via ebay at [ebay id: ichiro51collector],
and I tried calling him directly at [(253)677-2445].

He never replied to my emails, nor answered my calls.
I have never heard from him again.

******************

I would like to ask for the help of the Game Used Universe authorities and community.
Since I am currently in the Philippines, it will be great if anyone can help report Mr. Joshua Hanson to the Renton WA authorities.
I can send scans of the Western Union money transfer receipts, and all of my email correspondence with Mr. Joshua Hanson regarding this deal.

I do not want to lose my money to fraud.

Thank you very much,
