Told to reply with a Call sign and use QTH system.
Wants to send a "cashiers check". Also wanted it sent Express mail.

Bruce Ruben tried that with me the other day. E-mailed me at 3:15am asking about mobile radio I have up for sale. He's not licensed as either ham or gmrs (checked FCC License Search) Has the same MO as Lawrence Froehlich so it is possibly him just changing name.
