I'm trying to sell some wheels and here is an email from someone in NM. I don't know if this is scam or not :
"Hello and thanks for your prompt reply.I work in an Automobile workshop in NM and I actually want to buy the wheels and make payment as fast as possible but i will appreciate it if we can both deal on transparency and honesty......

My mode of payment for this item will be through US Certified Cashiers
Check because, that's the only means of payment i have access to
presently and i don't mind offering you $50 extra provided you can
reserve the item for me for just a day, while i make payment and also,
i will wait till the check clears your bank and you have your CASH
with you before i arrange for the shipping.

As for the shipping,i am shipping the wheels to our workshop in New mexico and it will be handled by my shipping company as soon as you verify and confirmed payment, so all i need from you is to know when you will be available at your address so that my shipping company can come and pick up the item.

If this sounds good and you are okay with my payment and shipping
arrangements, do let me have your full name and address plus your
direct phone number as it will be written on the check so that i can
forward it to my finance house to prepare it for you to receive it on
time.

Thanks and get back to me as soon as possible.
Regards..."
