Here is the stupid email and what i finially said...

Come on dude,you got to be kidding me. I'm not shipping it across seas with 10,000 including 4000 dollars shipping cost... DUDE YOU NEED TO STOP SCAMMING PEOPLE, I'm sending this to the internet Police if you don't respond to me within' 48 hrs of this email with PROOF of all these clients and shippers and Canadian shippers. No more auto response emails either...

THANK YOU HAVE A NICE DAY

Thanks for your responds. My client will procure a cheque for $10,000 and mail it out to you but i will like you to do me a favour to make this transaction fast to avoid time waisting. As soon as you received the cheque you will deposit to the bank make the shippers funds ($4,000 )ready to the shipping agency that will be coming for the pick up so that they can complete arrange the paper works and custom duty.they will comefor the pick up the moment everything is in place as i will really appreciate your efforts towards making this possible. Endeavour to email me your mailing information so that the cheque can be written out in favour of your name and address, i do not want my client make out a cheque to my shipper in CANADA as it will take 3-4 weeks for it to clear but a cheque sent within the U.S will only take 2-3 days and this will begood to me as i want the to get to me on
time to avoid time waisting. Do send me the following details.
FULLNAME................... .........
CONTACT ADDRESS...................
PHONE NUMBER...........
COUNTRY.................
So that i can forward it now to my client to enable him arrange
payment and contact you on phone the moment he mails out the cheque.Iawait your timely response so that i can instruct my client to mail out the cheque on time.Thanks for your understanding.best regard,

Wanna hear something funnier? My roommate last year in college got one of those emails saying that some guy in africa would give him 2.5 million dollars if he deposited a check in another country for him that was worth 40 million. He looked into it further and was actually gonna go through with it, till i deleted all the emails off his computer, he pushed me, and I broke his nose. Needless to say I got a new roommate

All that over a scam!
