luger offer

I was offered 700$ for a mismatched luger, I think it is a 20s comm, the frame is police marked.
the buyer did something I am concerned about, he wants to send me 4500$ have a ffl dealer send me the lisc. and then I am supposed to keep the 700 plus 100 for my trouble and ship a check for the balance to the ffl dealer.
I cant think of why, but is sounds very strange. why on earth would any one send some one they did not know that amount of money?
The check maybe is bad and I ship out funds and loose my gun and money? I just cant think of any reason that some one would do a deal like this and it has me on edge. what do you guys think. any one ran into a scam like this before?
