The letter below explains how the scam works. I publish it it its entirety because I deny that the writer has any expectation of privacy when he tries to scam me. Why does he feel that he can trust a complete stranger with an extra five thousand dollars? Why doesn't he offer to send me the correct amount and the remainder to his "agent"? Why not send it all the the agent, and let the agent bring me the correct amount? These are some of the clues to SCAM. I have not responded, even though he left the door open for me to charge him the entire $5120 for "transferring charges."

Here is the e-mail that I received:

Hello Walt
Thanks very much for the reply and God bless.Since the machine is in good condition i will buy it now.You should not worry about the shipping to England i will handle that.
Well,not to waste time becos i need it i quite agreed to pay the $3000 for it

But this is how we are going to seal the
transaction becos of delays and fastness.There is one
of my assosiates in the United states , who is oweing
me the sum of $8120 and he will send a cashier check or Money Order of the total money oweing
me to you and you will deduct the total cost of the
item + transfering charges and send the balance to my shipping company who is coming for the pickup in your location via western union Money transfer . The
reason
why i am doing this is because a check sent within
America especially Money Order
clears almost immediately.

Concerning the shipping my shipping
firm is coming for the pick up after
the payment .But the only thing is
for you to send the balance so as to pay them for the
pick up..
So if this offer is okay by you send me your
contact information(name and address) to which my
assosiate will address
the check to .. so that
everything will be ready in time..
Thanks once again as i await your response.Greetings to your family.kindly send your phone no for easy communication. .
Regards

Felix
