Its a scam, you are the third or fourth person on here to bring it up. don't touch it with a ten foot pole. They will take advantage of your good heartedness and steal you blind. they are lying

Good to know all of you are right thanks, when something seems to good to be true then it probably it.

Any time you pay with Western Union or cash/gift cards, there is no way to get your money back. Demand next time, a reasonable deposit and balance after inspection. Put in a clause if it is not as advertised the deposit is refunded.
