Re: Aftermarket Navi Deal

Here is the e-mail that e-bay sent, as far as the wire transfer....looks like I'm SCREWED!!!!


Please be aware that auction:3007954538 -Kenwood KNA-DV2100 Mobile Navigation System+. has been ended early and your bid has been cancelled. Please note that we have recently ended all listings for the sellermorganpghas it appears the account has been compromised and used by an unauthorized third party. The seller's privileges to trade on eBay may be temporarily suspended while we investigate this matter further.

If this seller contacts you to complete a transaction outside of eBay, we strongly recommend that you do not because it will not be covered under eBay's Fraud Protection Program. If you have already sent payment, we advise you to take steps to protect yourself depending on the nature of your payment. For example, if you paid by personal check, you may stop payment on the check. If you paid for this item with a credit card, you should contact your credit card company's security department right away to inform them of the potential problem with this payment -- most companies provide full protection from loss for online purchases in these circumstances. If you have made a payment by money order or wire transfer, you may contact that company for further information at 1-800-325-6000 (Western Union), or at 1-800-926-9400 (Money Gram).

We emphasize that there is no definitive information regarding the seller or their items at this time, and our difficulties in confirming information about the seller may be the result of a mistake or misunderstanding.

Tried to stop the transfer but he had already picked up the money. I have sent him about 20 e-mails with no reply. looks like I learned an expensive lesson.. Just filed a complaint with The FBI Internet Fraud Division. Just hope it does some good.
