Help i think i have been scammed?

the guy told me this (i sold him a game account)....

The payment will be sent by UPS courier company and the item will be picked up as soon as you receive the payment.
I will wait for the payment to get cashed before i send my shipper for the pick up.I will like to tell you that i will be sending a certified check worth of $2100 to cover the shipment of the item and the money for the item.
As soon as the certified check reaches you,have it cashed and deduct the money for your item and send the remaining fund to my shipper via western union money transfer.
My shipper is also picking some of my other items up for me in the same city of yours that is why i need to give him that amount.
I will like you to also deduct $100 for your running around in getting the check cashed.
Please let me know if i can trust you on this so we can move forward from here.
Thanks.

he told me the check is on the way in my mail!!! what do i do?

don't do anything. this is a total scam.

Never send the merchandise until you have cash in hand. You should have had him wire the money to your bank. You would know in 60 seconds if the money was real. Did you at least get the tracking number??

This scam is as old as the hills.
