he told me he put his document nd his fathers will nd money in the box, nobody has threaten me with jail he just said we'd b in trouble, nd i was wondering what kind of trouble il be in,i was so stupid to agree to him sending it

none at all.

You have just been scammed. You will probably not recover your money but you have not committed any criminal offences.

Just stop responding to him and don't send money to people like this.

Can I clarify anything for you?

i can block him on facebook but is there anyway i can block emails, i taught as much but they were so convincing, may change my number to, such a fool,i want to get it all sorted today so i can get my life sorted, thank u i was terrified, they sent me a tracking number so i cud travk the box, that was all a scam to

I am not a technical expert. I do think you can cause his emails to bounce back in some way.

Or you could just ignore him.
