Please get back to me via email at smitc12@yahoo.com looking forward to your response” Red flags: I’m not selling a bike, sending a Whatsapp and asking for email response, erm...foreign number... Bikehub user Colinv, also newThis was the response: Yes, I am really interested in buying this as a surprise for my cousin, only if you can assure me that everything is in order. I am a petroleum engineer currently on a rig offshore, I want this to be a surprise for my cousin, so I won't let him know anything about this until it gets delivered to him. It will be a secure payment via Skrill as I'm on a rig offshore. So, let me know if you have an account with Skrill so I can arrange for the payment asap. Please note, a pickup agent will be coming for the pickup once I have made the payment. SCAMMER

Is there no vacancies in the SA government? Boktiet82, Warthog whisperer, Balooba and 1 other 3 1

Balooba Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 Hi All Anybody had dealings with the below? I posted an add and 5 min later got WhatsApp call. Wanted the bike shipped via courier. Wanted discount which I approved. Am I willing to courier? Said yes, at his expense. Said he will take care of courier cost as he has a account with a courier company - sounded like "Courier Guy". Wanted my account details. Said that I would send it shortly. 2 min later got WhatsApp asking for account numbers. Not once did the person ask any specific questions related to the bike. I am good at giving a proper description but not that good. If legit, my humble apology's. Name : It's Time to rideLooking to buy/sellor service a bicycle? Look no further Give us a call 072 382 8588Dealers in pre loved bicycles
