Once he said something about a shipping agent and him being a "businessman" is what ruined it for him. Hes going to send you a fake money order that he printed up on his computer. I went along with this once and then went to the cops with the MO. I didnt save any of the emails or anything so they wouldn't do anything about it. If you go along with it and save all of your conversations you may be able to get him

---- with him, and try and make him send the MO overnight or something to waste money on shipping. then just give the mo to the cops cause you might get charged a fee if you try and deposit it

Sounds like the standard "Fake Check/Forward Freight Scam"....chances are your "client" is either located in Englnd,Netherlands,or Nigeria, where 99% of this crap comes from
My guess from the broken english he uses is Nigeria, Ive read hundreds of Nigerian Emails, and notice much of the same lingo/grammer errors.
Standard practice is to:
Get someone in a foreign country to pass off bad checks.
They really dont give a rats *** about turbo kits, a couple of fellow scam baiters cator to this type of scam and have a bunch of fake listings, like 486DX computers for 5k$....and totalled crap cars for full price... all they care about is that you pass the check...
Again check 419eater.com for info, search "fake check" while there, also google "Anus Computers" and "tHE FAILURE" for ideas on how to get back at these ******** of society
this is the famous anus computer bait....all 70+ pages of it but very funny....
