Default I just had a SCAMMER contact me about I bike I have on here for sale!

I have a bike in the classifieds here for sale and I just got a very legit seeming text about it. They asked several questions about it and we went back and forth a few times. They asked me to get a Procarfax.com or Theautoprime.com report on the bike to see if there are any title issues. I just looked both of them up and they are SCAMS! Watch out people!

Scammers are trolling everywhere. Good job spotting the fraud.

I'm selling a Toyhauler so I can get a new bike and have had the same thing with that. People asking me to buy a vin search. I don't even respond.

Yeah it's nuts selling anything online anymore, I get the idiots trying a hustle over $50 items on FB marketplace.
