All they would have to do is learn proper english and most people would still fall for it
 
Wow...people who expect to pay after receiving a confirmation that the item has been shipped are a crock. It would've been funny to mail a rock or something...give them the tracking number, and then see if they actually followed through with submitting the payment.
