The payment would be sent by UPS courier company and the
item will be picked up as soon as you receive my
payment,I will wait for the payment to get cashed
before i'd send my mover for the pick up.I will like
to tell you that i would be sending a check worth of
$2700 to cover the moving of the item and the money
for the item.As soon as the check reaches you,have it
cashed and remove your money for the item and send
the remaining fund to my mover by western union money
transfer.My shipper is also picking some of my other
items up for me in the same city of yours so that is
why i need to give him that amount.I will like you to
remove $100 for your running around in getting the
check cashed.Please let me know if i can trust you on
this so we can move forward from here. Regards

shut the fuck up no it is not legit.

it's obviously going to be a fake money order or something to that effect.

what would that accomplish? theres no way they can get it because if it was fake i couldnt pay the movers. it just seems like something strange is going on though. Maybe its like in the movie saw.

Quote :
"2. distant person offers a genuine-looking (but fake) cashier's check

* you receive an email (examples below) offering to buy your item, or rent your apartment, sight unseen.
* cashier's check is offered for your sale item, as a deposit for an apartment, or for just about anything else of value.
* value of cashier's check often far exceeds your item - scammer offers to "trust" you, and asks you to wire the balance via money transfer service
* banks will often cash these fake checks AND THEN HOLD YOU RESPONSIBLE WHEN THE CHECK FAILS TO CLEAR, including criminal prosecution in some cases!
* scam often involves a 3rd party (shipping agent, business associate owing buyer money, etc) "

The check is legit enough looking that a bank will accept it but in a few days theyll figure out it's fake and take the money back out of your account
