"The money order you get is bogus, usually a lot more than the item, so youve encashed it for them, you end up with no money, after you've shipped the goods."- But if you've 'encashed it' for them, then why have you no money (maybe I don't know the term 'encashed')?
Also in my experience these scammers claim they don't mind if you don't send the item until the checque or money order clears. But you could be right - perhaps the reason for the complicated collection arrangements is just to avoid telling you where they are (which could get tricky if they have to make somethiung up).
