Title: Just a warning (again)
Post by: Simon on July 30, 2005, 04:26:20 am
Just thought I'd bring this up again (its been mentioned before),
as you may or may not know I'm trying to sell my son's Oz frameset which I've advertised here and elsewhere,
anyway received one of those scam enquiries so it looks like bikes etc are still targeted,
so when selling an item just beware,
DON'T deal with anyone offering to pay by cheque and arranging there own collection,
they will have the item picked up and later you'll find
the cheque won't clear the clearing bank even if its been cleared at first by your bank,they WILL want there money back,
you'll be without a bike and no money to show for it.
and no I didn't fall for it,will only accept payments from paypal nowadays or a cheque from a trusted scorce,or obviously cash,suggest everyone (I'm sure you do anyway) do likewise,
sad world we live in these days [smiley=depressed.gif]
