Hello, all. I am in dire need of any available legal advice or assistance. I recently posted several classified ads for my 900 on the internet. After a few days of doings so, I received an electronic communication from a gentleman stating that he was extremely interested in the vehicle. I had previously been warned of several scams dealing with automobile classified ads, but this correspondence seemed very legitimate. Rather than making things more confusing, please visit the link below to learn about the rest of the situation. Although a bit of the information is not identical to that involving my situation, the transaction procedures and the situation itself is extremely similar to mine. I received the fraudulent cashier's check and notified my bank of the situation and deposited the check so that we will have proof that it is actually a fake. Also, in order to have the case investigated, it is necessary to have proof of fraudulent activity. After depositing the cashier's check, I contacted Interpol Communication and Public Relations, United States Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation (Dallas office), United States Federal Bureau of Investigation, Internet Fraud Complaint Center, United States Secret Service, Office of Government Liaison and Public Affairs, Federal Bureau of Investigation (Houston office), Hereford Police Department, Texas Rangers, United States Secret Service (Electronic Crimes Branch), and the United States Federal Trade Commission. Is there anything else I can do to see that this individual is convicted of the crimes he has committed? The story linked below is obviously work of the same individual I have been in contact with, and his actions MUST be stopped. Also, even though I am not currently out of any monetary funds due to this scam, is there any way I can possibly recover the amount of the fraudulent cashier's check? I believe I am entitled to that particular amount, but you never really know what will happen when you get the government involved. I am not fully aware of all the international laws applicable in such a situation and what I should do to see that this does not continue, so I would greatly appreciate any advice, comments, or suggestions. I have all transactions and correspondence with the individual fully documented and available for review...I just need to know what to do with it. I also have quite a bit of the individual's contact information, so hopefully that will aid in the investigation process. Thank you so very much in advance for any help provided. I look forward to a little feedback so this individual will get the message that he has messed with the wrong breed - Saabers. :-) If any of you have any questions or the such-like, please feel free to contact me. I highly anticipate any and all response. Drive safely, and KEEP ON SAABING!!!
