Thank you! I received this scam too. Totally uncool. Plus this dude's from the UK yet going across the pond for scams? What an idiot! I responded with: "Show me the money, fool!"

I also just received an email from "Scott" for a purchase off of the WPA website. I decided to run his email through google search and your blog popped up about the scam. Thanks Lenny -- I immediately sent an email letting know that I couldn't do business with him.
