Let $A$ and $B$ be two points of $\mathrm{PG}(2,q^n)$, and let $\Phi$ be a collineation between the pencils of lines with vertices $A$ and $B$. In this paper, we prove that the set of points of intersection of corresponding lines under $\Phi$ is either the union of a scattered $\mathrm{GF}(q)$-linear set of rank $n+1$ with the line $AB$ or the union of $q-1$ scattered $\mathrm{GF}(q)$-linear sets of rank $n$ with $A$ and $B$. We also determine the intersection configurations of two scattered $\mathrm{GF}(q)$-linear sets of rank $n+1$ of $\mathrm{PG}(2,q^n)$ both meeting the line $AB$ in a $\mathrm{GF}(q)$-linear set of pseudoregulus type with transversal points $A$ and $B$.
