To protect from scams like this, I would recommend using wire transfers under the following conditions:
1 - set up a bank account with the minimum deposit needed to keep the account open. This will be used only for your wire funds receipt account.
2 - If possible have restrictions put on the account that no wire transfers out of the account are to be permitted. This is an additional safety step as you will have to provide this account number to the sending party. If they are crooks, this will keep them from doing a reverse transfer.
3 - As soon as the money is received, remove it from the account and put in your normal bank account. Leave only the minimum deposit in the wire mail account
