I lent a female $300 on June 24, 2010. She always had some excuse about paying me back and now, a year later, I've been very firm about getting my money back. She just ignores me now.

I have her phone number but not her address or place of work.

How can I hunt her down and get my money?

I only have a saved text message on my phone from her initial request for the money. I have no other documentation.

You lost 25 dollars a month on this loan without figuring all the other financial stuff like risk free rate of return and whatevs. Write it off.

Al, I'll charge you 300 bucks to find this person for you. Actually, I'll give you a 10% discount. 270.

[cliceperperIa]

If you're going to pay for it, get ****ed first!

[pharweqto]

Hold on! You have text messages from her still, where she acknowledges the debt? That may be enough for small claims court. Hell, take it to Judge Judy.

I have the text message dated June 24, 2010 at 5:29pm which reads...

"Could I borrow 300 for a couple bills till the 8th I'll sign an agreement."

No, I didn't make her sign an agreement

It doesn't acknoweldge the debt, though. It's only her request for money.

I know personal information (complete with photographs and video recordings) about her that could scandalize her with her pastor grandfather. She lives with her grandparents. I get her address, I get their address, I can blackmail her.

your best bet

Who are you kidding? You paid her for sex, she didn't put out, now you want a refund.

[TritteTouff]

I'm trying to figure out her grandfather's name. They're in some looney non-denominational church which I wished I remembered the name of. I think it's also outside of the city which complicates matters.

I'll give you $100 if you can provide me with information (like an address) and using this information, I retrieve my money. The dilemma is she has a common name.

My money is good. I'm not like Oerdin promising me a copy of Civ5 and not fulfilling that promise.

Do we have a deal?

Make it $100+$25/h and I'll draw up a contract and a liability release form and fax it to you. You'll pay the base 100 up front which entitles you to 4 hours of services, and I will bill you for the time before I give you the information. I make no promises of finding the person and you can always opt out of additional time after the first 4 hours. If you call off my services for any reason you will not be billed for any hourly work I've done but are not entitled to a refund on your upfront fee. Also, if at any time I do find the info you are looking for I will make you an offer on that information that will include an hourly rate plus another 100 flat fee.

[tousuarshatly]

What a deal.

[Ecurrexchangess]

"Female"?

I've reached the point where I now think of Alby as a Ferengi.

[avaissema]

OK, wrt women anyway.
He obviously lacks the Ferengi gift for acquisition.

[minowz]

Go on Judge Judy.

[Signabeademia]

She offered to come by and give me $100 right now but considering her emotional distress... ah... I told her to wait til she got it all together. I can't risk her trying to kill me or something. Rather have her give it to me whole and after she has cooled down.
