I've unknowingly sold pirated copies of Adobe CS4 Extended on Ebay

Question

And would like to know what I should/could do to help Adobe and bring about some kind of resolution.
It's a bit of a long story, but I'm a top-rated powerseller on Ebay and a few weeks ago I answered an ad on Craigslist for CS4 Extended at $199 a piece.  I really had no idea what the software retailed for, but after searching Ebay and finding them selling for an average of about $399-$499, figured they probably went for somewhere around $600-$700.  I decided I'd sell them for $299 and make a quick $100 off each sale.  And boy did they go fast.  I bought 5 copies at first, placed the ad that night and by the time I woke up the next morning they’d all sold.  I met the seller again that afternoon and bought four more copies.  Again, they sold immediately.
That's when I started feeling a tinge of nervousness.  I'm from Seattle, so I didn't really think twice when the seller told me their source was a person who worked at Microsoft and had access to the "Microsoft store" (which is somewhat infamous here because of how cheap you can get software for if you have access).  But nine copies?  This was just too easy.  I took one of my copies and drove across town to Best Buy to see how well it matched up to theirs.  And it matched perfectly, but I was stunned at the $900 price tag and therefore the ‘matching up’ did little to help my nervousness.  I ran home, hopped on the PC and found that one of my buyers lived about 20 miles from my house. Okay, this was a way to find out for sure!  I emailed and called them, but after getting no response I made the decision to drive to their apartment later that afternoon, unannounced, with a copy of the software in hand.  Unfortunately they weren't home so I left a note, which essentially stated that I was very sorry for dropping by like this, but my computer's CD Rom wasn't working (which it wasn’t) and wanted to make sure that the software they'd bought was legitimate.  I stated that I hoped they wouldn't mind installing in my presence so I didn't end up shipping out the other copies only to end up ripping people off and creating a mess.
It wasn't until the next morning that I heard back from him, via an email stating how rude it was that I came by like that, and to simply mail the software to them and they'd let me know if it didn't work.  Although I knew it was a possibility, It definitely wasn't the response I was hoping for.  Dang.
In my Ebay ad, I'd promised 2-3 day delivery on the software, so made the horrible decision to go ahead and ship them out that afternoon, keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.  After all, these looked real, all the way down to the product ID sticker, pamphlet, CD artwork, etc.  If these were fake, then someone went to a LOT of trouble and spent a LOT of money to make them look real.  I guess I figured that my chances of them being pirated were pretty slim considering the financial aspect of the alternative.  I did a little research and found that just the shrink-wrapping machine would probably have set the "pirater" back a couple of thousand dollars, then the professional looking pamphlet, the box insert, the box itself, the little stickers...this would be one heck of an undertaking.  What are the chances someone would have the means to do something like that?  Well unfortunately, much higher than I thought.
The first Ebay complaint was filed a few days later and the others soon followed.  All the work I’d put in to Ebay began crumbling down around me and I called the man I’d bought them from under the guise of wanting to buy more.  We met at a local Burger King and I confronted him about my situation.  In response, he repeated what he’d told me the first time I bought them:  The software was definitely legitimate and he’d had three different opportunities to install it himself on behalf of his buyers, all of which were successful. 
I pointed out that not a single registration code was valid and that some of my buyers had actually called Adobe and were flat-out told by representatives that they’d bought illegitimate software.  Every last copy of the software I sold was being returned.  I said that I wasn’t concerned as much about his level of culpability, but that I get money back to be able to pay for the accumulating refunds.  Of course he seemed sincere in telling me that he’d get back to me, but I haven’t heard a word from him since we parted that day.  But something positive did come of the meeting!  In parting, I pretended to drive away only to circle back around and see him get into his vehicle (he’d parked quite a distance from our meeting place) and got his license plate number.
The timing of this mess was incredibly horrible because I was moving at the end of last month and it cost me a small fortune.  When it came to being able to refund people, I simply didn’t have the money.  I called Ebay and Paypal, told them my situation, what had happened, and they covered the refunds for me but informed me that I have two weeks to pay them back before they shut down my account. 
I’ve sold on Ebay for over two years and it’s my biggest source of income by far (I’m a waiter by trade otherwise).  I’ve lost that now and have only myself and my bad judgment to blame.  But I would like this person to be held accountable for his part; even if that means that I have to face consequences myself. 
This happened over two weeks ago, but I’ve not called the local police yet because I’m not so sure that they have either the tools or the motivation to pursue something like this.  Instead I’ve been scanning Craigslist to make sure he’s not still selling (it seems he’s laying low right now) and figured I’d contact Adobe and see what course of action they’d like me to take.  I’m wondering how aggressive they are in making sure piraters are prosecuted and how they go about doing it.  Hence this post.
I’m in a financial mess at the moment and have been working a lot of double-shifts lately in my scramble to come up with money; I haven’t had much time to be able to contact Adobe during their office hours and thought I’d write this in the hopes that someone from Adobe will read it and be able to point me directly to someone who handles this sort of thing.
This guy lied to me about successfully installing this software, so I have every reason to believe that he’s knowingly and directly involved in the operation.  I still have the returned software.  What should I do?

Since your intention was to sell legit software, I'm sorry that you were as much a victim as your buyers were.  I don't know what else you could do except report it as others have suggested and pay your customers back.  Companies like Adobe don't have the resources to follow up on every individual case of piracy, but they should be interested in tracking down the sources of the big professional counterfeiting rings.  Judging from your description of the packages you sold and the cost of producing such packages, I assume they come from such a source.

I'm from Seattle, so I didn't really think twice when the seller told me their source was a person who worked at Microsoft and had access to the "Microsoft store" (which is somewhat infamous here because of how cheap you can get software for if you have access). 
I don't get the connection - you were selling Adobe software, not Microsoft software.
