The scammer wants to steal your merchandise and have you ship it to him

The scammer will want to purchase an ‘item’ you have for sale on Craigslist, Ebay or another online site and may offer you more than your asking price to have you remove your advertisement quickly.

He will ask you to receive payment via his 'verified' PAYPAL or BANK payment and ship the 'item' to a relative or friend for him.

In this scam Paypal has not received any money to be paid to you and you will lose your merchandise if you ship. It is almost impossible to stop a shipment

The same scammer (now has a different name!) has sent me 2 credit card details and a shipping address, all with 3 different zip codes. Both credit cards were declined with my mobile card reader app.

I've been communicating back and forth with this guy for almost 5 days now, just to get a good laugh at how much of a low-life scumbag he is.

I'm ready to pay the Money and i will advise with my Credit Card for you to charge for the payment of my order. But, i just got a response from my Son who i am sending this monitor to that he needs some money and He cannot receive payment via credit or debit card from me at the moment and i am not at home. I want you to help me Charge another $1,500 to my Son who is going to use the Monitor.

The $1,500USD which will be deducted from my credit card. Also, I'm compensating you with the sum of $300 for the transfer fee and for surcharge. Please note that i should have given my credit card for him to deduct the funds but He told me that he doesn't have the facilities to charge or debit credit card at the moment, so that's why i bring my vote of confidence in you and i don't want you to betray the vote of confidence i put in you,I want you to transfer the funds to him after you have make the charges and the money charged from my credit card is in your account, then you can now make the transfer to my Son via western union. I will have love to do this my self but there no Western union here around me, So the charges you'll make on my credit card will be:

Monitor + shipping Fee ($380.50)
Amount sent to my son ($1500)
Transfer Fee plus Your compensation ($300)
Total:($2,180USD)

Note that my credit card will be charged for the amounts above.Please do get back to me if you are in the office right now so that i can forward my credit card details to you,then you can charge full amount and transfer the funds to Him via western union or money gram.

Hope you understand?
Thanks for your co-operation & understanding.
Hope to read from you ASAP
Thanks and God Bless you
