Craigslist Scam?

[Rasavac]

I am selling a PS3 on craigslist and i recieved this email. Said payment was taken from her account but wont show up in mine until i give a tracking number. I havent sent the item. Is it a Scam?

"Thanks for your reply
I am located in Remsenburg city
in NY,i really need to buy this and send to my
son schooling outside the state as a gift
been trying to buy this for a very long time and its been very stressful
buying this.,I will offer you $500 so as to close other
bids as soon
as possible.I will be paying through PAYPAL
 because i have a verified account with paypal.So kindly get back with
your paypal email address so i can make payment into your paypal
account.Once payment clears,shipment will be handled by me through my
personal fedex account,so you dont have to pay for
shipment.Get back to me if my approval is granted.I would like to see more pictures please.
 Thanks
Mrs Allen"

JUST HAPPEN TO ME TODAY luckly i caught it becasue it all looked a little strange (no tm symboles by the pay pal name in the emails the bold blue names that were not a link. when i didnt recive my money i was a little suspicious so i started doing some research and caught it , to bad i sent the item already but luckly i can put a stop on it so it dosent ever reach them.

Definitely a scam. I forwarded all the emails i received from the same person trying to buy a camera from me. forward all the emails to spoof@paypal.com.

this "lady" keeps harassing me for the money she supposedly sent me. I told her to go through paypal to make a dispute otherwise i was done doing business with her.

Yeah, that's part of the scam.

Theyve threatened to have Paypal accounts closed, a fine of $100 imposed on the seller, they've threatened to call the FBI - my personal favourite ("Hello, I'm a Nigerian scammer and seller ABC won't go along with the scam") - one person even got death threats.

It's all BS.
