I got a craigslist scammers bank account confiscated

I had a craigslist scammer contact me and they did the whole certified check thing where they mail a check for $4000 more than I was selling the item for. Then they ask you to buy a cashiers check for the difference and put it in the "shippers" bank account. Long story short, I got the Feds involved and they confiscated the scammers bank account 
That is one pissed off Nigerian right now.

This is in no way subtle. This is a straight brag thread.

Lots of people have bank accounts, scary to think it could happen to anyone.

Good on you! 
How did you find out how it was resolved?

Coolest story I’ve ever heard

The longer story is that the scammer gave me his bank account number and name so I could make the deposit. I called the bank's fraud dept to tell them what was going on. I had to document everything like the check, text messages etc. They got the Feds involved and under some law were able to seize the account based on activity that matched up with what I told them was going on and the proof that I provided them.

So you're the SOB that got my account shut down? That check was totally legit!
