Moneybookers SCAM gets another... internet UK

Okay. So, I'm like everything else, saw a motorcycle on craigslist. Was trying to purchase something for my boyfriend who was recently diagnosed with cancer. As a pick me up. However, it just drug us down further. I emailed the "seller" of the 01 Katana, corresponded a few times.

Here's the original email. Too bad, I was a day late and 3000 short on finding this website first!

Hi,
the bike is in great condition, has been properly maintained, has never been dropped or abused in any way. It has a clear title and the price I'm selling it for is $2850, which is including all shippings charges.
I live in Avondale but I'm currently working in the UK (London) and I'll be staying here for the next approximately 7 months, anyway I'm using MoneyBookers services so I can sell this bike without difficulty. I left it at their warehouse before leaving to the UK. They are supervising the entire process from payment, shipping with a 14-day inspection period, returns (if needed) and refunding.
If you want to purchase it, let me know and I will explain you how MoneyBookers works and how we can move forward.
I am waiting your email.
Thanks

I emailed back with concerns, particularly after I found out they wanted me to western union the money prior to recieving the goods. However, I did. Estatic I would be able to cheer my bf up.

Anyways. The emails went on. Money sent. Picked up. And no word from them on... If you'd like more of the emails forwarded. Let me know.

I feel like such a fool... I'd like to get my hands on this person.
