I was bidding on this notebook on ebay and the real seller's acct got hijacked. The scammer sent me an offer for the same notebook for $500. I told him I will take the offer. Now, he's sending me a fake shipment and wants me to send him money through Western Union.
Any good scam I can do on this guy/gal?
Hello Toan,
Please confirm that by maximum Thursday, you will have sent the money.

Hello Toan,
I've just returned from the shipping office, and here is the tracking number: 733900F86BDA32
You can verify it at http://ebay-exchange-collet.com/track
eBay Courier told me that they have sent a confirmation e-mail to you, where you will find the details that you need when going to the western union office. (an agent will handle our case, and his information is listed in the COD payment section)
Here's the info you need:
Andrew Riggs

I don't know.
I live in London, UK. We will use eBay Courier Exchange Collect as the payment and shipment method.
I will ship the item, then you will have to make the payment by Western Union, and confirm the details to eBay Courier.After they verify it to see if it's valid, the package will be released for shipping to your location.
You will then have 3 days to inspect the contents, and after that you will inform them to unlock the funds so that I can receive the money.
I'm waiting for your reply.
