They will "hire" someone to forward the packages to them in Nigeria or where ever....It's part of a "work at home" scam.

"To be a forwarding agent or reshipper you must be bonded, insured and licensed to do so within the laws of your country, state, and county. If you have been asked through email or chat room correspondence or by telephone to reship merchandise to another country that was purchased in your country, you can bet that the merchandise was purchased with stolen credit cards. You are facilitating a crime, receiving and reshipping stolen property, and are at risk of arrest and conviction."

What to do if you are the victim of a Payment or Package Processing Scam
