Default Wire Transfer

We did a wire transfer for final payment. Money being held by attorney in IL. He transferred and sent us proof money was received. Went to closing. They asked for final payment. Gave them copy showing The Villages bank account had received payment. Someone else with the same name as attorney (Miller) was closing later. They had received credit for our payment. Luckily, our closing was first and could be straightened out easily.
