I have a high dollar item for sale in various places on the www.

I get this response which is clearly fraud (see below). Who do I report this to and how?
===========
Thank you for your response,after discussing
with my client who really commended your boat
instructed to move on with the deal at the price of
($5,000),he said he will be going on a vacation soon
and will rest virtually all the transaction on my
shoulder and assign a shipper like wise that i will
work with and stressed that he will be issuing out a
cashier check of ($11,000) which was a refund payment
of a cancelled order earlier made by him but
will be filed in your name,you are only required to
deduct the cost of your boat($5,000) and
send the differece ($6,000) when payment gets to you to a
shipping agent whoose information will be given to
you as at when due, he will be needing the fund to
offset shipping charges, taxes and other cosmetic
repairs/touches,the agent will be responsible for
signing andtransferin! g of title paper and also pickup.
So i require of you to send me your NAME,ADDRESS AND
PHONE NUMBER for payment to be delivered to you via
fedex courier services All other information needed
in completion of this transaction will be given to
you in due time.
thanks

1. Scam! Don't do it.

You find that the cashier's check is no good. After you deposit it and send the seller the $6,000, the check will bounce back. This is a well-known scam.

2. Report it to the websites where you posted the add

They should know about it.

3. Actually, there is not too much you can do about it.

Maybe you can get some tips of who to contact by visiting www.419eater.com

4. If you really feel that this is fraud

(and it sounds suspicious to me, too) contact the FBI. I don't know if you live in a major city or not, if you don't you probably have one close to you. There will be an FBI office there that you can contact .It's in the phone book.

What you need to do is print out everything - so you have evidence to give them.

Good luck and hugs :)
