Here was the response,
hi,ok but right now i am with my family at my parents(but i'm still in US so it will not be a problem),we can proceed with the bargain using FreightCo Company ,we will be protected ,they have repayment options,also they will guarantee the excelent status of the transaction,i will wait for your answer,thanx

They will never call you or provide a number and always talk about making the transaction safe and shipping free.
