Item bought by buyer from country to which I won't send - how did that happen??

I'm selling something fairly costly on Ebay (not a mobile!!), on a BIN - I set my buyer preferences to block buyers who :
Are registered in countries to which I don't post
Have received 2 Unpaid Item strikes in the last 30 days
In the early hours of this morning, a guy in Louisiana has bought the item; I'm not going to send it (he only joined Ebay yesterday!!), but how was he allowed to buy, when he's registered in the US?? :mad:
What route would you take from here?
Thanks in advance! :beer:
