sound like a scam?

well i saw a car on ebay and decided to email the person selling it(i didnt email through ebay, he had his own email posted in the ad also had phone number but now going to call yet). the reserve was not met, but yet in his description he only said he wanted $5450 for it yet the reserve was not met at 7000

i emailed him as i said and asked what else i should know about the car and just seeing to make sure how much he wanted for it.

i got this in response

Dear sir, all I can say is that I will need a deposit like a proof that you are serious and I will start the shipping to you. For this, I will need your complete name, shipping address and your ebay user id, so I can send them to ebay and start the paper work

Regards

Thomas Archuleta

my guess is i send him a deposit.. he steals the money and never finishes or ships car..
