If you think he is structuring, file the SAR. Document who you spoke to at the FBI and send them a copy of the SAR as requested. Other than closing the account, I'm not sure what else you can do at this point.

The clearest fact is that he is running a business through a personal account; that alone is the basis for closure. You don't have to get into the messy stuff.
My first SAR on this customer would be my last... My second call to the FBI would be to give them the DCN on the SAR that I filed, not to give them a copy, but that's just me.

from your description it doesn't appear to me he is structuring, and what he is selling on ebay has no bearing on if a SAR should be filed. Now, if there are other details you've left off that indicates to you structuring is taking place, then by all means, you should file.

I would also close the account, unless you want to be known as the bank where the "angel of death" has his account. Just my opinion.

A former Bank had a policy against banking firearm dealers amoungst a long list of others. They would have closed the account

anyone can sell a firearm online, however it has to be shipped to a liscenced firearm dealer and picked up by the customer. The dealer will usually charge a fee for their role in the transaction. At least that is the way it is in MN.

IMO, the only thing you should have against this guy is the "angel of death" thing. That is scary, don't get me wrong. I agree with Cornhusker in that your decision to file could be based on personal feelings. People buy and sell guns all the time, and they are often transferred via US Mail. I don't think it is the bankers's job to pass judgement here, unless your FI has a policy of not banking firearm dealers. Again, the "angel of death" thing would concern me, but that is it.
