Fraud - e-mailed me used invalid UPS services and never sent merchandise

I was bidding on eBay for a video phone in which I didn't win. After the auction I received an e-mail from goodman87@aol.com stating that he had video phones for sale. So I asked him to e-mail me some prices and I would think about it. He told me he had a set of Vialta Beamer Video Phone Stations (BM80-2 Pair) for $250 shipped. I e-mailed him back saying how can I trust that I will get the phones? He told me that I would send my money thru UPS using UPS Exchange Collect Transaction and I would receive the merchandise and if I wasn't satisfied I could send them back and get my money back. So I thought it was pretty safe because I received this e-mail (below):
