Default IS THIS A SCAM, DODGEY EBAYER

Morning!

I put my RS2000 on ebay and some clicked the buy it now option, problem was that he was in America.

I actually sold the car that day anyway, I told the guy on ebay that he cant have it and

he's replied with this;

Compliments of the season,So sorry that i ahve not been able to mail you in awhile it was due to the fact that i lost my step mum .It's quite unfortunate to have hear saying to me that you have sold the Car.

The cheque has been issued and sent to you already and it's another sad news hearing that you have sold the car as well.I would have love to accept back from you the cheque but yet,i would have been very much happy and happy if you can just help cashing the cheque,reasons are as follows;

Remember i told you in one of my previous mail that it is my associate that will be making over the payment to you and not from me direct.This person has been owing me the money which has been asked to make the payment over to you for like a year plus now and am scared if you are to return the checqu back to me and me getting it back to him,he will continue to delay the money and who knows when he will be paying up this time around.

Like to implore you to please and please,go and bank the cheque and when the mony has cleared at your bank,then you can send the money over to me.I wouldn't mind given you part of the money just to compesate you for the work done cause even if the cheque is been returned to me,i canno cash it cause it was not issue in my name.This i'll like you to do in assisting me.I look forward to hearing from you so soon.
Regards


is this scam?
