Adam Karas scam ripped off thief flemington New Jersey

here is my story. I was on instagram looking at shoes that people were selling as i uslually do, and i found a pair of "what the kobe 8's" that were my size and were brand new. Adam Karas left his phone number on the photo posted. So I decided to send him a text asking for more about these shoes. He responed quickly saying they were brand new. I asked if he was willing to do trades because i had a pair of 'lebron 10 canary" . Adam said that he would accept trades and agreed to do the trade.

"what the kobe 8s" for "lebron 10 canarys." So i shipped them to him after some exchanged texts. Adam would not ship first and wanted me to because he didnt want to get scammed by first time traders. In turn i shipped my lebrons to his address. i sent him the tracking number and had said he had recieved them and would send the shoes he had agreed to do the trade with. 

From my point of view this guy seemed legit and wouldnt scam me. I have never traded shoes before. I was new to all of it. I asked if he had shipped.. he said yes. I asked for the tracking number and he didnt respond. Two days later, i recieve a text from him saying he had been busy and had his phone taken away. i asked for the tracking number and didnt get a response. He hasnt answered any of my texts and I havent recieved any shoes at all. He will not respond to anything i say to him and i am willing to take legal action if necessary. 

Do Not do business with anyone by the name of "Adam Karas" His phone number is 908 391 7677. Get the word out that he is a scammer
