It was through e-mail, so he basically sent it through a program on his computer and it converted his actual e-mail address to BidPay's so it'll look like BidPay sent it.

SO, since the message was fake, the payment was too. There WAS NO payment at all, ever coming. It even says it somewhere in those chat logs. He kept saying "God will reward me" instead of him actually paying me...He scammed me, and now I'm out over $300.

ahhh right well couldnt you have logged into a page on bidpay to check the funds existed before shipping the item? or doesnt bidpay work like that?
