They send you a cashiers check overpayment for $10,000 for your $5,000 "item". They want you to send them the $5,000 difference back to them, so they can hire a shipper to pickup your "item".
Their cashiers check is a fake, and the money you sent back to them was real, so they are $5,000 to the good.
They could care less about your "item" that was for sale, as it would just be something that could help track them down.
THEY JUST WANT YOUR CASH, YOU WERE NICE ENOUGH TO SEND THEM.
