Send Ether from MetaMask to Private Network Failed

This section describes the error occurred with sending Ether from the MetaMask account to my Ether private network.

Now I have some Ethers in my MetaMask wallet, I can try to send some Ether fund from MetaMask to my local private Ethereum network:

1. On "geth" console, check the balance of the second account:

> eth.accounts
["0x05d4e1a499775ce9d681abd50bda655c7b5ccb90", 
 "0x485410d2e7b8bfb6f78e5e5acf7d1057cb853fce"]

> receiver = eth.accounts[1]
"0x485410d2e7b8bfb6f78e5e5acf7d1057cb853fce"

> web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(receiver),"ether")
0

2. On MetaMask, click "SEND" to get the send form. Then fill in the receiver address:

0x485410d2e7b8bfb6f78e5e5acf7d1057cb853fce

3. Enter 2 as the transfer amount and click "NEXT" to get the transfer confirmation:

4. Click "SUBMIT". I should get a transaction ID.

How the MetaMask failed to send the transaction and returns an error:

Error: [ethjs-rpc] rpc error with payload 
{"id":8413774307300,"jsonrpc":"2.0",
["0xf86f8084...}

Error: invalid sender
