This guy responded to QTH add and offered to purchase an item I have listed. See last e-mail response below. Sounds very similar to other Nigerian SCAM's.
Bad News Stay Clear:
Thank you very much for your email.though I am presently out of towm and won't be back until ending of the month.Then, concerning the payment of the item, I will have my friend who is owing me some money to send you a check for the amount owing me, then when you receive the check, you kindly deduct your own money for the item,then send the balance money to my shipper who will come and pick up the item from you place and other items purchased from california and ohio.Then as soon as you receive your money then you send the item to my address in Maine.
So in order to finalize this deal i will need you to email your full name and address where the payment should be mailed to.
Anticipating your kind understanding and co-operation.
Best regards,
Raymond Legett
