does this sound like a scam? I am trying to sell my car online, this is the response I got?
Thank you very much for the prompt response.
Though the offer is satisfactory. I am purchasing this
item as a gift to my Son in-law.
get back to me as we are planning to purchase this
unit before we left Ocala,Florida .We will be leaving
for a
vacation (its my son In-law’s award week as well as
our church seminar season )
we should be off to UK but will be
returning after a few months from this long
vacation.
Based on this , i will like you to help participate in
the shipment of this unit from your base down to our
new home .I already located a freight consignment
agency here in the UK that will help finalize all
shipping and clearing activities.
All necessary expenses based on
shipment will be handled by me in care of the
freighting i.e paper works,
shipment fees freighting arrears, ,and insurance fees
and bill of lading
will be remitted on the payment to enable conviniency
on both sides. payment will be endorsed to you in no time
from my associate.
clients in the united states which
will include all expenses(ie shipping as well), i will
proceed in giving you further instruction on how to go
about shipment in collaboration with the freighting agency to provide
a home to home pick-up /delivery service after you have gotten and cleared
payment from your bank to avoid delays .
Send your response My phone lines are restricted for
now due to so many congregational calls.I will be online
after todays activities .
Get back to me as soon as possible for us to know how
to make payment arrangements as well as shipping .
God bless you

Not to mention Certified Checks are easy to counterfeit. You deposit a fake check, it takes your bank a few weeks to figure out it was fake and they come back for the money.
