No member current or banned with that username? Different spelling or a link to the FS ad?

Where did he say he was sending it from? The IP comes back to Seattle. Do you have an email address?
Contact your local police dept, possibly your state Attorney Generals Office. I’m going to ban the account, this can be easily reversed if things work out. Keep me posted here via PM I couldn’t find the username because I typed it in as you had it with a space.

Somethings off on this one. All seems somewhat legit from searching. All members seem solid. I would try to get a hold of them again.

Seems like he's a regular at NYC and NJ meetups. Maybe find him at the next one. Hope you get this resolved!

I actually found his linkedin, job, facebook, and a personal address - I forwarded the information to OP to pursue as he sees fit.

How did you pay for the watch? How long ago was it? You may be able to get your money back or reverse things if its quick enough.

The grammar in the FS ads was a red flag. Kutime's earlier posts are fine which also suggests a hijacked account.

This appears to be a phished account.
The latest ads placed this week have a completely different email contact from any previous ads from the same member name. It is very likely that you have not been communicating with the registered member.

Sad all the way around. Wires potentially can be reversed if done quickly. You still may have some coverage if you call your bank and explain what happened. Best of luck.

From my experience, at least here at my Credit Union, a wire from over a week ago cannot be reversed. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, and hope I'm wrong. But I wouldn't expect to reverse a wire after 24 or more hours has elapsed.
