Inthiqab Mowlana Inthi Mowlana Seyed Mowlana I wish I'd read the reviews before I lent him $2k that I will never see again Los Angeles CA

Long time (ex) friend Inthiqab (Inthi or Seyed) calls me and tells me someone broke into his car and stole his laptop. He is stressed and whines about how he does video editing for a living and without his laptop, he will never make another dime.

He asks me if I can go online and buy him a new macbook for 2 thousand dollars. He says he doesn't have a credit card but he is about to get paid $6k from a gig on Friday and he can pay me back then.

This was on September 4th, 2018. It's now October 11th, over a month later. 

In that month, he has:

• dodged calls and texts 
• told me he was visiting his mom in DC and couldn't talk
• told me he needed a "mental health day" and couldn't talk
• said he was having a mental breakdown and couldn't talk
• promised me a HUGE sum of money from an investor for an upcoming project I have
• lied about already doing the transfer of funds to my bank (several times)

And how just to top it off, his phone has been disconnected. I don't think I'll be hearing from him again. Based on all the complaints about this guy online, I hope the cops eventually catch up with him and he ends up behind bars where he belongs. So he stops scamming people and stealing their hard earned cash.
