This is a scam sent to Stampin' Up Demonstrators. The first email is just like the one reported here: http://www.scamdex.com/ScamTipReports/24712
She is using the same story, and claims that she has no debit card OR PayPal account in order to make payment. She offers a Cashier's Check for the order. A follow-up email says:

Hi,
How are you doing? Just a quick note to inform you that you will receive the payment this week, however, there is a little bit of problem or mixed up when the check was issued. I m currently off for a Fellow Christian meeting and seminar and I have instructed one of my Clients to facilitate the payment to your address. The Problem is that I just read a mail from my Clients new secretary that she sent out the whole amount she owed me to you instead of her to send you the exact amount of the items I bought from you. I was so mad at her when I heard this because I don't know if my money is safe with you. But I do have a strong conviction that my money is safe in your hands, because I m a Christian mother and I know you are a Honest woman and God fearing and have a reputation to protect.

I actually wanted her to send the remaining of the balance to one of my mom's event planner to take care of the birthday logistics and preparation. I just don't know what to do cos I am totally confused. Please consider this a favor that I want you to do for me right now cos I sensed you have integrity to maintain. Please once you receive the check, deduct the amount for the items and help me send the remaining balance to my mom's event planner. She would need it for her birthday logistics and preparations.

Thank you very much.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
