Post subject:  Not Sure If Fake, Guy Seems Very Legit, Need Feedback

I am not sure if the below is for real or not, all the flash images and so forth used in the original was pretty extensive for a scam... In addition, the guy: James Scott, who is sending the money order hasn't written in broken English or anything, been very understanding thus far, but this still doesnt feel right, as in order to recieve the Money Order I have to first send a email to "usorder@post.com" with a tracking number and shipping information for the notebook computer I am sending, then once I do that the Money Order should be shipped to me = / No real sob story that the guy gave me, just that he wants me to send this to his daughter in Oklahoma and he gave me the address and so forth.

-What do you think...?

PS- I am waiting for a reply of an email I sent to usorder@post.com about this as well, to see if they can give me a phone number or somthing... This sucks when your kind of desperate to get rid of an item... I had another guy contact me that was verbatim one of the scammers mentioned on here, but this James Scott, it's hard to say, cause I dont know if the Post Office does anything like this... = /
