Accepted Answer

Yes, to prosecute the seller you would first need to contact the district attorney in the city where the seller is located to report the fraud. Google only offers to act as an intermediary in an arbitration dispute, which will not help you if the seller refuses to respond. Additionally, you should contact your bank to report the bank wire fraud.
