How does the scam work when he is claiming to send a check and will wait for it to clear before he sends his shipper to pick up the item? I have a very similar email after trying to sell a forklift. Same Ontario phone number was given, but he is claiming to be in Calgary? Here is his email from "Doug Scott" <

How are you doing? Hope great. I will like to send you the payment ASAP by cheque. As soon as you receive the cheque, go ahead and deposit the cheque in your account, And once the cheque clears call me to let me know that the cheque has cleared. Then I will make out time for my shipper to come and get the Forklift. Thanks Mr.Doug S , if my offer is accepted please let me know, Please I am not in town right now I will be back in 2 to 5 weeks time, Please tell me how to send you the payment cheque. I can`t call you right now I am very busy and I live in north west of calgary
Ok send me your information so i can send you the payment cheque for the Forklift
