Another Scam?

The scam, (described in the original post), is not limited to ebay. It seems to happen just about anywhere things are advertised to sell, especially internationally. A while ago my wife advertised a horse for sale in a national magazine. The very next day after the magazine came out she got an email from some scammer with a complicated story about sending her a check and shipping the horse to South Africa and so on. A very obvious scam.
 
I had a guy the other day place an email order for about $2,000 worth of product. He had a "yahoo.ca" email address and wanted it all shipped to Nigeria...he said he was prepared to pay with a credit card, but I'm like "yeah right". Ended up telling him we can't ship overseas.
