Just how I read it. Perhaps, like any advice I take no responsibility if, it goes wrong.
You can choose to simply reject his offer. You can choose to just not answer his e-mail.
Certified checks can and are kicked back all the time. The Certified check scam is one that's been around forever. I only sell locally and request cash.
