NO! More Nigerian scam types, tell them you're sending the check via "the guys with the hairy knuckles". Kiss it goodbye if you do business with these guys. Dan

They are scammers. No doubt. E-mail them back and ask for verifiable US funds for the exact amount and you will never hear from them again.
90% of these scammers the spelling is so bad it gives them away.
They did it to me last week on my parts listed here and I e-mailed them back and said the spelling was so bad I did not think they could make out a check correctly.:thumbup:

I was approached with this deal about a year ago. Although I knew it was a scam, I couldn't see the catch since the guy said he'd send me a cashier's check from a US Bank. Turns out you can stop payment on a cashier's check, which is what they do. I always thought they were good as gold.

The ex-husband of one of my employees actually fell for the deal. Cashed his cashier's check, mailed off the difference between his parts, which were never picked up, and the total. Then the cashier's check bounced cause it was a stop payment and the bank sued this guy for the balanace. I would suggest running as fast as possible.
