My case is almost same as the #2.
They called in my office to ask for a quote, after I send them the cost. They placed the order immediately, and were willing to pay in full amount by credit card. But the weird part is, they want to use their courier, but needed me to put the delivery charge onto the credit card. Then I have to TT back the delivery cost back to their courier's account!!!! To me, it completely didn't make sense! So, I didn't deal with them.

But one of my client trusted them and lost $2000!!!! ( the delivery charge as their info will be send to somewhere in Africa!!!)
Of course, the credit card is a stolen one. Since all the process is dealing via e-mail and over the phone, you don't have a chance to check the photo id vs the credit card, so you won't be able to get the money from the credit center!!!!

yep, TT is 電匯, I don't know it's the scam is clever enough or my client is stupid enough, she proceed the order, and TT the cash, so at the end, she's not only lost the $2000 cash, but also owe the suppliers money!!!!
