I sent him the info. Then he replied:
Hello My name,
I have received your detailed information and will commence with further arrangements. You will receive a payment in the amount of $3,450 out of which you'll deduct $400 endorsed for your retainer fee and use the remaining amount to settle the gear rental deposit so they can have the gear reserved and ready for pick up. I will send you the invoice from the vendor we are renting the gear from. Kindly be on look out for the mailed package and keep me posted as soon as you receive it and have it processed.
I told him I received the check. He replied:
Great! Thanks for letting me know. Deposit it for processing and get back to me afterwards. I will send you the invoice from the vendor when i get to the office tomorrow.
I deposited the check on the phone. Then he replied:
Morning My name,
Attached is the invoice and details from the vendor that you'll use to make deposit payment for the gear rental. Make a withdrawal of the gear rental fee and visit any bitcoin atm around you to make the payment. Send me the payment receipt once you're done so i can get it across to the vendor as proof of payment in order for them to confirm our reservation of the equipment.
NB: If you've not used bitcoin ATM before, you can find nearby atm here https://www.digitalmint.io/bitcoin-atm-locations
Here is the step by step instructions on how to use the machine
Step 1: Click buy
Step 2: Verify your cell phone number
Step 3: Scan QR code on invoice to read destination address
Step 4: Insert cash
The check bounced. And he never replied again.

I instantly Googled his name and a blog post came up so that confirmed that this was a scam. I’d like to prevent this guy from scamming anyone. Looks like he’s been scamming people for years and he needs to be stopped.

I thought it sounded fishy and looked up the website. It's the vaguest site I've ever come across. The bull[censored] I wrote in high school is better than it. I couldn't find a "Steve Birch" in film. I responded to the email saying I was available, just to see what they would say. I attached the next email they sent me.
