I receive these scam emails via my online quilt store on a daily basis. Rather than be annoyed with them, I decided to mess with them. See exchange below taken verbatim from the email:

You can order directly from the website. I take all major credit cards. I do not use Western Union. The United States Post Office will ship internationally for a nominal fee.

Please kindly calculate the total cost of the items only cause i will be having my shipping agent coming to pickup the order directly from you because i already have some goods with them in which after picking up the goods from you,they will then deliver it to me here in Norway.SO kindly get back to me with the weight and Size of the items so as to forward it to the shipping agent so that they can bill me with the shipping charge of all my goods.And you get the order processed for me.i will mail you my US credit card account information for the payment of the order.
Regard,
Benny.
