They will send you a fake cashiers check for way more than the purchase price. When you contact them, they will say can you send the extra amount via Western Union to my shipper and he will come and pick it up for me. They may have other explanations, but it all involves you sending the extra money to some third party, which is actually them and no one will come and pick up the item.
