From a Yahoo account

I replied back, telling him that if he'd give me $8,900, I'd be more than happy to ship them to him in a matter of days.

Then I got another e-mail:

I replied back with the same answer: get me $8,900 and I'll ship them out asap...

Then I got a reply back from yet another Yahoo account:

Hello *******
thanks for getting back to me and i so much appreciate it ,well as for the price there is no problem ,so pls kindly get back to me with total cost plus shipping within the US.and also advice if i can forward in my Credit Card Information so that it can be charge cause i want product ship immediately.
thanks hope to hear from you soon.
This has scam written all over it, but I don't get it... what's the deal? Are they hoping I'm going to send them the HDD's before I have my money - indicated by the "I want product ship immediately (yeah right)? Or is there something else wrong... are they using stolen CC's? Anyone?

I don't take credit cards (too costly) - kinda sucks, because I'd love to know if he can get me my $8,900 right away - so should I just give him my bank account info - nothing much he can do with that, I'd think...
