Workings of an online scam?

here's one for the Pelican brain trust, I've been getting emails from someone apparently interested in buying one of my racecars.

- alleged buyer is from the USA yet overseas right now
- buying on behalf of a relative
- offers more than my asking price
- now offers to send a deposit whilst a PPI is done
- balance payable afterwards
- car to be sent to an international destination

My reply, no deposit needed (unless full amount). PPI welcomed, just let me know when and how will come by, payment only via cashiers check or cash.

Where's the catch?
