A similar scam is sending a fake money order for more than the asking price to the seller. Since money orders are pretty much cash the seller will send the goods out right away and the difference left over. 5 days later when the bank finds out it's a fake money order the original seller is out the difference and the goods sold. It usually happens with high priced items such as automobiles and whatnot. Since most of the scams are based out of a country thats not governed by Us laws, it's very hard to get the person arrested or even find that person.
