Yes, this is definitely a scam . It's the oldest trick in the book. They send you a money order for more than you're asking for the car, and have you send the balance to their "shipper". Only after a couple of weeks do you find out that the money order or check that this Bozo sent you is no good, and you're out whatever you sent of the balance. You need to report this to Everett so that he can block the guy who sent you the e-mail from The Samba. Check out the internet fraud link on this site and you'll see that a lot of the foreign scammers use this same tactic. The dead givaway that this jerk is a scammer (probably from Nigeria) is that his English isn't even good. You'd think that these guys would, by now, at least get that part straight......
Whatever you do, don't respond to his e-mail.
