Subject: Shipping Arrangement!!!!

Thanks for getting back to me on time.
I will have the order picked up from your facitilty.
I have made an arrangement for the pick up of this order right from your
store thru my shipping agent in order to avoid the shipping responsibilities
and difficulties that might be experienced  in shipping of  these type of
items  to me  in Australia, out of Canada and USA.
The Shipping Agent have all the documents and permits required for the
exportation of these type of items. They will handle all the custom duties
and insurance as well because all will be dully paid for by me. They have
got similar items shipped to me here successfully.
Having discussed with the Shipping Agent, the nature, weight, size and
quantity of these items, I was charged $520 for the shipping cost.

I will need you to do me a favour as explained below :

This shipping agency is not set up to receive payment via credit card, so I
am asking for you to charge my credit card to the grand total cost and then
send the shipping part of the whole payment to the shipping agency's office
in the USA  via Western Union Money Transfer and their representative in USA
will come for the pick up.

Here is the breakdown of the total amount of money you are expected to
charge from my credit card :

TOTAL COST FOR THE ITEMS : $729.60 US
SHIPPING FEE             : $520
WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER FEE:$50.00
THE GRAND TOTAL COST :  $1299.60 usd

I will send you my credit card number  for you to be able to get this full
payment charged instantly as well as the shipping fees.

I will send you my MASTERCARD credit card for the whole payment both for the
items and the shipping cost.

As soon as I have the receiver information for the shipping fee from the
shipping agency , I will forward it to you as well.

As soon as the shipping agency in USA has received the shipping fund, their
representative in USA will schedule the time for the pick up and then come
to your facility for the pick up.

WHEN CAN I SEND IN MY CREDIT CARD FOR THE FULL PAYMENT ???

I am waiting to hear back from you soonest.

Paul.

The above is the actual scammer email received. It has been scrubbed of recipient information.
If you received an email like this you have several choices.

Ignore the scammer. Do not respond to emails. Just delete them.
Respond, but only to lead the scammer on--to get a counterfeit check, to report stolen credit card numbers, and to waste the scammer's time. Time spent trying to scam you is time not spent scamming someone else.
Report the scammer to us and we'll post their emails so others will know about that scammer.

Whichever option you choose make sure you do the following:

DO NOT educate the scammer in any way. Educating a scammer makes them better at scamming the next person.
DO NOT let the scammer know that YOU KNOW they are a scammer. The scammer will always be nice to you if they think there's a chance they may still be able to scam you. If they know they've been discovered they will often threaten you. Their threats are empty, but are scary to some people.
DO NOT give the scammer any personal information that they cannot find in a phone book (name, address, and phone.) Feel free to give them lots of incorrect information.

For more information you may contact us by email, or by email form.
