Hey Dude,
I just recieved this email today, as I am selling my Harley on Craigslist Las Vegas,
Sounds like a similar oceanographer scam & Naval reactor operator scam and Seagoer scam,
From: *removed* @ gmail.com, *removed* @ gmail.com
Thanks for the prompt response. I am ready to buy it now as a Birthday gift for my son and i am at sea at the moment as i am a marine engineer and due to the nature of my work, phone calls making and visiting of website are restricted but i squeezed out time to check this advert and send you an email regarding it. I really want it to be a surprise for My son so i wont let him know anything about it until it gets delivered to him, i am sure he will be more than happy with it. I insisted on PayPal because i don't have access to my bank account online as i don't have internet banking, but i can pay from my paypal account, as i have my bank a/c attached to it, i will need you to give me your paypal email address and the price so i can make the payments asap for it and pls if you don't have paypal account yet, it is very easy to set up, go to www.paypal.com and get it set up, after you have set it up i will only need the e-mail address you use for registration with paypal so as to put the money through. I have a pick up agent that will come and pick it up after i have made the payments...Thanks!!!
Anyone who wants your bike that havent ask for a phone number, Hasn't came to see the bike, Claims they will handle shipping, Told you not to worry about a Title Transfer and Wants to pay with PayPal is a scammer.
Why wouldnt they just buy a brand new bike if this was the case from a dealer if they have this much trust and money ha ha.
ITS A SCAM, DONT DO IT. FLAG IT.
