Look, they claim that they're going to send your family member all $30k of the money before he sends the item to them.
That right there proves they're frauds. NOBODY does that when purchasing a large item. The way business is actually done is the buyer puts the money in an escrow account with a lawyer, who signs a contract that he will transfer the sum of money to the seller after the seller has transferred posession of the object for sale to the buyer.
Your case is clearly a fraud. You'd have to be an idiot to transfer $30k to somebody before receiving any safeguards in return. They're definitely going to cheat him out of the object and/or some money.
