This guy scammed me and I’ve gotten a few emails from people saying they have been scammed too. He texted me one time so I have his number. Can I track him down? Also, if I find his address, what do I do?

Sadly, this happens all the time.
You need to be more specif on what he scammed you on?

Did he have something for sale and you paid but never got anything?

If “scam” means crime then report it to the police department and they will obtain the suspects name from his phone number.
