Theory 1: "Arsenic" spent $3500 to lose an auction for a $180 tablet.

Theory 2: "Arsenic" laundered $3500.

I'd wager a penny it's #2.

For that to be true, the Arsenic user would have to have some way of cashing out at least a large portion of that $3500. The only way that could happen is if they were actually on the payroll or otherwise being paid for goods/services from the auction company.
