Sending Goods and Bank Transfer Scam?

Question

I have an online clothes webshop on Aliexpress.
Recently I have been approached by a buyer on Aliexpress who only wants to buy the goods directly and through (international) Bank Transfer.
The buyer claims he will do a bank transfer to me and that I can send the goods afterwards. He only needs a proof of payment from me.
Now I have read a lot about scams on this website and I start being worried. Is there a way that she can do a bank transfer and then cancel the transfer after I have sent the goods?
If this is a kind of Scam, how do I make sure this is a real deal?
This buyer also looks legit on Aliexpress (diamond buyer)

This could very well be a scam, so you should be careful.
Some transfers are reversible, other's are not. You should talk to your bank: they should be able to tell you what types of transfer you should be using and how you can know when the money is truly yours.
