Reason why I would lean towards scam is because of the description, looks like it was copied from another ad. Had the same thing with an ad I placed a while ago for my parents' 4x4 trailer. Found that someone used my pictures and description for their ad selling at an extremely low price, phone number didn't work but I emailed to which the person responded a week later (after I had OLX remove the add). You can search for images on googlehttp://images.google.com/imghp?hl=en I did not know you could do that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matchstix Posted August 30, 2014 Share If you can view the bike physically it will be the safest. If it's a scam they will dodge you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostSixFour Posted September 1, 2014 Share Scam. Here is the ebay ad.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rockymountain-Element-Team-RSL-/111444994352?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item19f2a3a930 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvdm1 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Scam. Here is the ebay ad.. http://www.ebay.co.u...=item19f2a3a930 There we go, thought it looked more like a scam than a stolen bike situation. Wish I knew what their MO was, how they planned on scamming an unsuspecting buyer. They're probably not even in SA, running their scams from Nigeria or somewhere.

By getting you to pay the money before they "ship" the bike. You're out of pocket, and the bike isn't coming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
