Check Scams, Debt Collection scams and other financial scams.

This scammer says that he prefers only one person to handle his card details. He will then claim to pay more than the amount required using stolen/fake credit card details.
He will ask for the overpayment to be sent to a third party such as a consultant, agent, courier etc.

If you were to go through with this process, you would be responsible for any funds lost by the card company along with expenses and legal fees.
You would face prosecution for fraud and possibly end up with a prison sentence.
