Hey George This is the typical scam; it was tried on me a couple of years ago. I received a cashiers check from an obscure US bank and it wasn't real. I simply waited for the guy to call me back when I didn't send any money to his "friend." One good way to be sure if it is real or not is to accept their offer, receive their check and wait a month until the check clears. Insist on a check from a US bank. With the new "Check 21", which is the new bank technology for the 21st Century, one of the benefits is that checks clear much faster. My bet, however, is that it is a scam.
