    Does he still work for DT? They do business on TW. They may wanna know when an employee is displaying unfavorable conduct.

    His (ex?) wife still lives in Harrisburg NC, but he isn't listed on the deed. Bought a home the same time the one in Concord was sold...

    I'm really sorry to hear this. I would be furious. First thing is I would reach out to Discount Tires in the area and ask for him. I'm sure they would not be happy to hear about him doing this. Also, I would file a report so that local law enforcement knows. Lastly, I would contact your bank in regards to Zelle and see what they have to say. You could try to dispute it in some way.

    Hope you get this sorted!

    Even though Zelle doesn't have purchase protection, you can still report him and they'll contact his bank. I don't know what will come of it, if anything, but may as well.

    I’d fill out the fraud form on the FTC website if you haven’t already.

    The only thing that makes me think this is an active attempt to avoid refund is the deleting of his FB account/blocking calls, etc. If he is sick that is one thing, but well enough to delete social media...doesn't point to someone that is just simply ill and unable to reply.
