Western Union and MoneyGram is in fact a red flag. The photos they sent you were most likely stolen from another ad (probably from e-Bay) and the address is nothing more than a mail forwarding service. I suspect the seller lives in another country.

I advertised awhile back for some original 40 bumper irons on the V-8 club site. Got an e-mail from a guy who said he had the irons and he sent me obvious photos of the stainless irons from Drake's catalog. He said I could pay by Western Union. I never responded back. These crooks are out there so be on your toes.
