accused-of-pocketing-millions

I just sent him $3k for some recent auction purchase. Now I am wondering
what will happen to my money. He was, apparently, pocketing some of his
clients' money that was proceeds of auction sales.

``The FBI raided Stuart, Millner, and Associates after a source close to
the investigation claims the owner allegedly pocketed money to live a
lavish lifestyle.

The investigation is focusing on the owner, Stuart Millner, whose
company has held auctions for major corporations across the country. The
companys success has allowed Millner to afford a six-bedroom home in
Union. Its now on the market with an asking price of $1.6 million.

Sources close to investigation say Millners wealth came in part from
him allegedly keeping more of the proceeds of auctions than he was
supposed to. The money was supposed to go to clients. FBI officials
wouldnt comment on the accusations.

News 4 reached out to speak to a man who matched the owners description
to get a comment and asked if he was Stuart Millner. The man walked away
when the name was mentioned.''

You're probably screwed, at least in the short term. Like Jim suggests
you can call the local FBI -- you probably won't be the only one in that
situation. Just speak clearly and tell the whole truth.
