He called a bit after when I didnt respond back (after I emailed the shipping company and saw they only take western union) and of course he didnt have a phone number, etc.

Havent heard from him since then.

Also, anyone notice they are using gmail accounts a lot? I wonder if we can alert gmail with all of the emails they are using for fraud purposes?
