Doug,

It happened to me too with my request for Parker-Hale scope rings. It's DEFINITELY a scammer. Probably from Africa. The "money gram" request and strange nature of the replies set my bells and whistles off and I shut him down immediately because I've seen it before. I've been reporting these things to BATFE for a couple of years since we discovered them trying to sell registered MG's by email. A very elaborate scam too with photos, etc. The Feds told me the money transfers were winding up in Nigeria but that's all they knew. It's all been under investigation for quite some time and they do use doctored/expired FFL's so ALWAYS use the FFL EZcheck system regardless of who you think you're dealing with.
