Too good to be true (ebay)

What do you think, a 2003 Yamaha r1 for 3k on ebay?

He opened his ad 2 days ago and has no bidders. Any wonder?

 

Ah, yes, the old "restricted to pre-approved buyers" thing. Probably a
how's that work?

 

You can only contact him at an anonymous Yahoo address.
That bait is too stinky.

I emailed him through the contact seller link. if he's not legit, that will
usually kill the auction.
if I get a response, ILYK.

 

The guy who bought my triumph on Ebay said he bought another bike earlier
and got a warning from Ebay to cancel his check. Turns out the guy had sold
the same bike 3 times.
If he's not esay to communicate with, forget it . I had on my auction to
send me a phone number and preferred time, and I would call.

 

No offense but you must be really new to the internet. If you're not
careful your bank account is going to be eaten alive.

For fun email the guy and tell him you want it.

Instead of being in Florida, he'll be in some 3rd world country where
his job just transferred him and his family to.
A family member will be sick which is why he needs to sell the bike.
The market value is so different in that country he can afford to sell
a $7K+ motorcycle for $3K AND ship it to you in the US for free.

All you need to do is click on the link to the Escrow service he
provides and Western Union the money over to the service...gives ya a
warm and cozy feeling inside doesn't it?

These ads not only show up on Ebay but all online for sale sites, free
local cycle trader magazines and newspaper classifieds.
It's huge business just like the Nigerian 419 scams.

Oh and as far as the Florida location and good feedback...that ebay
account was hijacked. Thousands of retards reply to phisher emails
that appear to be from ebay. They click on a link that takes them to
a fake ebay log in screen where they send all there personal info to
the scammers, such as username, password and as an added bonus, SS #
and all their credit card info.

 

I had one guy send me a fake check from london, with his change supposed to
be sent to a PO Box in Ontario, Canada. A month later he was threatening to
call the cops on me. I gave the check to the Postal Inspector the day i got
it and ignored his emails.

 

The amount of fraud that some people attempt is amazing.

Sound like my favorite preacher Dr. Gene Scott. He had a million hats.
You knew exactly where he stood on all topics. He was the only honest
tele-evangalist.

He died not too long ago.

He had quite a following.
