As soon as the wire posted, I withdrew the money in cash, waited 24 hours, DHL'ed the sale documents, and closed the new account.

so let me get this straight: you opened a new account, accepted a wire transfer, withdrew the money as cash, and then closed the account within 24 hrs?
sounds like very suspicious activity
