Selling HU overseas?

Ok, So I put my pioneer flip-out HU for sale in the classified section and got many responses from people who are interested. Problem is, most of them live in Europe and tell me some wierd story, like:

"Hello !!My name is Mr. Desmond Elliot. I work with the united nation's.The
reason I sent you this email is to inform you that i saw your Item and i
intrested in it,payment will be make by certified Money Order. In view of this I
need your Full Name, ddress,contact information ur phone# and Email address to send the Money Order,you don't have to be worry about the shipping my shipping company will handle it.i will be sending Enough money on the Money Order andafter you deduct all the money you need the remaining money will be send back to my shipping company that will picking up the item ... get back to me As soon as possible to send you the Money Order!!. for any question you can mail me back lastly. How much are you selling this Item to me $ ? i wait your Reply."

Is this legit or is this some scam? I know if you buy something From the US and you live in the UK, you gotta pay a bunch of taxes. Anybody know whats the deal here?

For the record Ma'am; you go to the thread. Look at the top of your browser there is a large bar telling you what website you're looking at. Copy the contents and paste it into your post.

Just to expand on UC's instructions: you want to copy the address in the top in the thread that you are trying to link to, then go back to the thread you want to post in, then paste.

Yeah, yeah. Easier to just tell him where it's at.
