A Question About SHIPPMENT! PLEASE HELP! I AM SCARED!!!!!?
Ok, so I met a guy to sell my Flip video camera. He lives in Nigeria, and I live in Texas. So I told him wait on the shipment, but he has emailed me and told me that he took out 200 dollars out of his deductible. I wasn't even gonna ship the doggon thing yet!!!! It's at my grandma's house 80 miles away from me! I can't get it now! IM BUSY!
I am so scared of what he might do to me. And what make things worse is that I gave him my address. WHAT SHOULD I DO!
Just tell him that he should have waited...
and to add extra cause the shipping will cost XD

You should IGNORE every single e-mail from him from now on. He is trying to SCAM you. Any time anyone claims to be from Nigeria and wants to buy something you're selling (and I'll bet he offered you even more than you were asking for it, right?) it's a sure sign of a SCAM.
E-mail him back one more time. Tell him your parents said you can't sell the camera to him. Then DO NOT ANSWER HIM no matter what he says! Remember whatever he's telling you is not true.
If you want to sell your camera, get an adult to help you with the process. There's too many con artists out there.

Well, that is why you shouldn't do that buddy!

He is not going to come to texas for 200$ , so just relax.........

Nigeria? He's almost surely trying to scam you, by getting you to ship the camera and you'll never get the payment or the payment will somehow be fraudulent. Don't be in a hurry to ship it. Ande if he does something like send you a payment that's a couple hundred dollars MORE than what he owes and asks you to send him the extra money, it's definitely a scam.
Not sure what this $200 out of his deductible means - what is he saying?

he didn't send any money so you don't have to send anything i agree with every one else email him and tell him it is no longer available it is a scam and if you want to sell it go to ebay much safer.

I guess I'm a little confused. Has he paid you the $200, or was he just ready to pay you? If he hasn't paid you just tell him there are some problems with the camera and you are unable to sell it now. If he has paid you just refund his money. If he really is from nigeria he isn't going to go to Texas over a camera, or $200.
For future transactions I would see about getting a post office box or something like that so you do not have to release your home address to anyone.
