Hard & Software hack?

I'm kind of noob when it comes to this kind of things therefore, i need help on this.
Any technician can explain whats the different between hardware mod and software mod?
I have a psp v4.01 and the seller said he can only hack the hardware but not the software.

The confusing part is, what is the difference if he only hack the hardware?
What does the psp cant do if i only hack the hardware without the software?

Thanks people in advance.

I believe that I've been conned by this Indian guy named Venkateswara.

Here's the story.
Just now morning i was survey-ing some Sony PSP Slim/2000 in Mudah.my and i saw this ad : (http://www.mudah.my/psp-slim-black-johore-1687961.htm?ca=12_s). I'm interested with his PSP so i msg-ed him about the psp, here goes the conversation between me and him VIA SMS.

Me : Saw your ads regarding black psp slim in mudah.my and wonder if its still available for sale? Is the firmware version 5.04 m33?
Vicky : Yup avail. And that is the firmware. Where r u?
Me : Ok but is it possible to COD in Selangor if you're traveling somewhere here?
Vicky : Impossible. If courier posible. If u want, u bank in and i courier to u.
Me : Oh okay, whats your best price? and can u post it by today before 2pm?
Vicky : RM450. Yup can courier if u able to bank in. No worries.
Me : Then ill bank in soon, can give me your details? if possible your ic as well.
Vicky : 114030098437 maybank.
Venkateswara.
791224015825. After bank in sms me ur full address.
Me : Done, money transfered. Have u checked?
Vicky : The money should be in since u've done the transaction. Give me your address.
Me : (provided him my full address and name)
Vicky : Ok got it.

Then i thought he already posted it, so i sms-ed him at 3pm and ask for the item's tracking number but he didnt reply.
I straight called him and surprisingly, he picked up but he said "Nanti saya sms, sekarang ada meeting la" that's all.
I assumed he was bz working or smtg.

So i waited till 7pm, sent another msg to ask whether he received my sms earliered and i tried calling him again. Unfortunately, he refused reply nor to pick up this time.
Again i called at 8pm, same thing, 9pm, 9.30pm, 9.45pm. ALL calls and smses being ignored.

I was about to give up, i ask help from a friend of mine who works in a Celcom company to trace this guy's phone number.
Btw, he sms me using this number 60194178522. After a few minutes, my friend said the owner of this number was a malay guy and the details are :

Zulhelmi bin Ahmad Sarai
851105086783
965, Jalan Kolam 6, Perak

I was like what the fooooook!
But he gave me the a/c no was an Indian guy.

and i read all the whole forum regarding frauds but it seems like there's no solution or chances to get the money back.
How sad-dening.

At the same time, i blieve he gave me the fake IC as well =(
Is it possible for me to check or trace info's if i got someone's IC?
