I have been approached by someone on facebook to arrange for a delivery from Kabul to my home address in xxx. He claims it needs diplomatic clearance and the cost involved is around $9.000 Is this a scam ?
Is this a fraudulent company ?

Yes, this is a scam. The fake site is reported online for being used in fraud since April 2017: https://db.aa419.org/fakebanksview.php?key=122474
