I got a similar offer from an Indian lady in south america for an ad I posted on Quikr.com
She wrote to me that she wants to send a mobile to a US address to her daughter and she will credit money using Paypal & that I should send it via DHL. Also, DHL guy from Mumbai called me back he is willing to offer a discount.
Seems I am saved of a scam and sharing info so that others beware.
