Nigerian 419 scam

Nigerian 419 scam is back, with a twist
A 'buyer' sees your house advertised online and makes a nice offer. But first, you're asked to send some cash.

When real estate agent Jennifer Caveness decided to sell her Huntington Beach town house recently, she listed the two-bedroom, two-bathroom property in the Multiple Listing Service, the traditional method of attracting sellers. She also advertised it on two popular websites, CraigsList.com and MySpace.com.
