My wife met a guy at a realestate seminar. At one of their "hook up with other investors" sessions she met a guy who seemded credible. He is from Utah -Bob Noxon-case you can look him up- , we are in Wisconsin. He had a house he was going to buy and flip for huge profit but needed a cash partner. After getting a contract written (w/o a lawyer) where he put up some stock as collateral - she wired him the cash ($60,000). She was promised 1% per month simple interest and the money back regardless of what happened with the house deal by April 1st. A few weeks ago he said that the house deal did not close because the seller tried to raise the price so my wife told him to send the money back because the deal was then over. She reached him a couple more times since then to get him to send the money back and he said that he would - but no wire transfer yet. Since last Friday we have not been able to reach him - his v-mail is full and he does not answer page's to his cell or his e-mail.

Doesn't your contract tell you what your remedies are? You need to contact the attorney that drew up the contract.

Wow. Let me get this straight. Your wife "met a guy" and thought he "seemed credible" so she wired him $60,000 and now you want the money back. And you're thinking he stole the money. Get real. Your wife gave him the money. Nobody is that stupid. She's playing you. After some croc tears, she's going to run off and join that guy somewhere with your $60,000. You know she's not dumb enough to actually have sent $60,000 to "a guy" who "seemed credible" without checking him out first. Man, you're being played. Yeah, get the police involved. But don't send them on some wild goose chase looking for "a guy" when the likely culprit is in your house. Buddy, sorry to give you the blunt truth, but someone needed to clue you in.

Contract your attorney and the attorney general's office in the state where you wired the cash. Contact the bank and find out if the account you wired the money to is still open. Call an attorney today.

Your probably too late already.
Contact a lawyer and the better business bureau. Look up his name on-line he probably has pages written by prior victims.
Chances are he has spent the money and has done this before. You won't recover the cash and if you get a judgment he will just put you on a bankrupts.
Sorry
