She is actively engage in a beauty website/forum that involves swapping of used beauty products over the net.. basically both parties will look at each other's list of items up for swap n picked items with relevant value that they both are interested in n work out a swap.. both parties proceed to send their end out..basically they can be from different countries.. ie US to singapore n vice versa..its based on a trust system.. tokens to be exact.. so it turn out this girl whos not in US fled after receving LOTS of beauty products without send her end out.. not just from my girl friend but many other ladies as well.. is there anything they can do to get the stuff back?? can the police or FBI get involve.. its really difficult as e girl is not in the same country.. its even tougher as there no money or paypal transaction involve.

There is nothing you can do to get the stuff back. Anything that involves swapping of items over the Internet based on the "trust system" is a crock of ****.

You all got scammed and there is probably nothing you can do about it. I doubt the FBI/police will be interested in stolen used cosmetics. I think you just have to chalk this up to a lesson learned and be more careful in the future. If you want to find out for sure, call your local police dept and ask them.

This sounds as hygientic as swapping out toothbrushes with each other!
Forget it. Law enforcement officers have more important things to do then look for used lipstick containers!
