Kinda figured he was selling snake oil....
How in the heck does some one have the time to gank an ecu from an E60 in broad daylight ( or parking garage when you leave your hood open overnight
and nothing else gets taken ). Taking an ECU from a modern bmw is not a smash and grab job like on a mid 90's honda... 
It requires some tools, time, and some know how to get it out since they are barred in the engine bay under about 3 things.

Hi Guys,
I just wanted to let everyone know who the scammer is member KAKORAT. He used someone elses company credit card without their authorization and bought parts for his car. I contacted the owner of the credit card and he didn't know anything of a Sargi O'Neal (kakorat). I also reported this to Chicago PD.
Vendors and members please be aware of this scammer KAKORAT!

Maybe a digit was wrong n the transmitted CC numbe by mistake..?
If not, and you're 100% sure, you should contact the FBI's ICCC.
