Slightly different this time.
I was looking at bike a few weeks back on eBay for a mate:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/270908663010?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
He didn't buy it, but it sold for $6250.
Now this bike appears on Gumtree for $5000:

Same bike…..same pics…..same blurb….but no phone number….
So I’m suspicious, but send an email anyway. And here is the scam-arsed response:

Hello,
Please excuse me for the delay, but I have a crazy schedule at the hospital, I'm a surgeon and this is the soonest I could get to a computer.
Offering for sale is a Suzuki Boulevard Cruiser VL800 with no finance on it.
Excellent condition, no scratches, no dents, no accident damage, always garage kept when not in use.
It has only 8360kms! Log book and full service history available.
I have never had an issue with this motorcycle since purchasing it.
Here are a couple of features to begin with:
Manufactured:Suzuki Feb 2008
Colour: Black
Model: CL50 VL800
Body/Type:Chopper, Cruiser
Engine: 0.1 litre
Has Road Worthy Certificate valid until DEC 2012.
Rego: 101HH
VIN: JS1BM111300101595
The final price is AU$ 5000. I'm only selling it because I've moved overseas in the UK a month ago after a 11 year stay and I didn't manage to sell it before my departure.
I wish to conclude the transaction through Escrow Trust Australia for both of us to be protected.
They act as a neutral third party, they will take motorcycle of the shipping and everything. If you are interested please let me know and I will explain the entire process. The motorcycle is garaged in a self storage unit managed by Escrow Trust. They can also have it delivered up to your place for no additional charges, if needed.
The delivery will take from 1 to 3 days, depending on your location.
I am offering 5 days time to have it inspected and to check on the papers.
Also, may I ask where are you located ?
If you have any questions regarding this sale, please feel free to ask.
Kind regards,
Andrew Norman
Nice :mad:
