I received a similar email with an advance UPS fee of $95 requested, but recognized it as a scam.

Welcome ladyleen
good to know you are safe, and thanks for the warning.

Could you please post the email address of the scammer and the text of his mail (delete your own name and address)? It will help others who do a Google search.
