FACEBOOK SCAMMER POSTING YOUR BIKES FOR SALE!!!

[pedal4416]

i posted it all over Facebook and so did a few on old bike club. It since got removed. They will make a new account and start all over again. Luckily I have nothing better to do with my time than seek out and destroy scammers!

I wonder if that's the same guy Moderator Dave caught here the other day trying to scam here on the Cabe and banned him immediately, he was here and on e-bay at the same time. Just wondering where he will go next.

He was only on here, the eBay seller was legit and the banned dude copied that ebay listing.

So he took the e-bay listing and tried to sell that bike here, is that how he works until someone puts 2 and 2 together?

Yup! I pointed that out when he posted late that night and by morning he was history.

Apparently this guy is still at it on Instagram- he tried to friend me, but I denied the request after I saw another person I follow say one of his bikes was on this guys page and he's trying to sell it... just an fyi.

Scammer's page says all photos are his. After he stole him. Doesn't say that the bikes are his. Small print. Maybe the photos are overvalued. Beware!

Yup, that guy started following me on Instagram too. I went to check his profile and posts before deciding to follow back.
I saw a bike I recognized and commented on one of his postings asking wasn't this bike listed for sale on the CABE in Mission Viejo? I'm now blocked.

Here's @Rust_Trader 's original listing here on the CABE. The same bike is circled in the screen grab from @farkasthegoalie

I initially thought something was up with this guy when I saw him list a 5 speed cotton picker for $450...
