I don't have a phone number but here are the wire instructions he forwarded to me

Beneficiary: Kenneth Washington
Bank name: Wells Fargo
City, State: San Francisco, CA
SWIFT Code: WFBIUS6S
Routing Number: 121000248
Account Number: 2454280369
Country: United States


If you were me should I email this clown and threaten to contact the bank? Or the local authorities?

Or publish this on my website?

Or can someone contact ebay (they don't seem to care).

any other ideas?

thanks
Why threaten? Just report him. I'd start with the postal inspectors and just lay out all the facts and have printouts of the pages. Eventually it will involve the mail, and that's their area. As a bonus, even if they don't do anything, if he gets on their radar there's no statute of limitations on crimes involving the mail.
After that, the local authorities and the bank. and even if they don't care, Ebay/paypal.

Eventually someone might care. Although it's likely too small at this point.
