This is hardly the place for this kind of discussion, but I suggest you just back out of the deal and avoid making waves. You could be the one who ends up in hot water depending on how you "mess" with this guy. Besides, do you really want to try to scam a guy who might be making his living as a criminal? You basically know nothing about him. He could be your run of the mill dirt bag or someone capable of completely fucking you or sneaking into your house to slit your throat. Just tell him you're not comfortable with the arrangement, report him to the police or FBI and move on.
