This scam has been going on for several years and concerns counterfeit cashier's checks. It operates out of Africa and also with a name-only company registered in London. I got my inquiry three years ago, had some email exchanges with the "buyer", smelled a rat, did my internet search on art forums, and quickly threatened INTERPOL. No more inquiries.
