Anyone dealt with this guy??? Sounds fishy.

[aion at sdf.lonestar.org (E.Noval)]

It's a pakistani. Here's how it works. You deposit the phoney check.

Send him the rest of the money. Your bank comes back to you a week or 2
later and says that the check was phoney. But, TOO LATE.
He got the money and the item.

It's going on all over the net- this same scam.
