JAzzy is only part right, geo tracing is just one way to get your information. Another way is to actually look up your email address, once you replied, confirming it was accurate and valid, vis a cite like Email Finder, and paying them the fee to get the full back ground, which includes name, address, phone and sometimes eve SSN along with criminal, driving records etc, in their report. Most of these scammers will not go that far though, as what they are after is your bank account. They want you to give them the CC number OR routing number/account number for your bank to be able to steal your money. If you refuse to give them the info, 9 out of 10 they move on to the next person on their list and forget about you, hoping you do not report them to the authorities via the FBI or other agency that would contact their government in their country (most of them are international scams) and also hoping the next person falls for it. Also,the ones after you identity would show up via your credit report with in 6 months, just go to FreeCreditReport.com get your free copy and check for errors, that will take care of that. Good luck!
