Newest form of online fraud....

I have been selling online for about 8 years and i have seen it all. But this is new. I recently posted on craigslist and i got many people with the same reply,

"ill send this website which is secure blah blah and once you get a confirmation from them then you send the item out. Then you get your money. "

Well its funny how they never give a phone number nor does anything match up, and they all have the same excuses why this or why that. So im wondering if anyone has seen this before.

He even made a copy showing what he made for me ...LOL

So what exactly is the scam? The buyer tells you he bought a money order and "scans" it and shows it to you?

i dont get it. they say theyre gonna send u a website and once its confirmed you got the website, you send the item out? so he's saying he's wiring you money telepathically without knowing your name or bank name or anything?

because the "scammer" controls their end and the "middle man".

This is old news, get over it.
