Scams

Rich, I have had this quite a few times on a site I've sold on called KIJIJI. What you got was the first contact. The next one will be a forged PayPal credit "In Trust", until they receive the bike. Any foreign buyer who is legit will phone and have real questions before offering to pay full price, just like you or I would. I've played them out to the end before(it's cold and boring in the winter where I live,LOL) and they will send you an e-mail saying you've broke the trust conditions, but by then I had already confirmed with PayPal that their payment in trust was fake. Good Luck. J.R.

That makes sense...I'll just sit on it and see if he tries to contact me again.

Typical scam. Get messages like that all the time for ads on craigs. As for paypal ,if you were to let the bike leave your custody , in just a short time you will get a not as described dispute from Paypal . Going thru one right now ,Not fun
