Good to hear that the authorities are taking it seriously, but the Secret Service is interested in the counterfeiter, not your iPad sale. Your inability to make a positive ID made me think that if i ever were to undertake a sale like this, i'd ask to take a photo of the buyer's face at the point of sale. If there's hesitation or refusal, that would be a red flag to me. That kind of snapshot would only be threatening if you were trying to pull a fast one - otherwise, it's just a picture of you with your new iPad!
