Common Scams and Fraud

Overpayment. A buyer or seller will send you a check and then ask for money to be returned to them. Often the check will bounce and you will have lost all money you sent to the other party.

Payment for Shipping Agent. A buyer claims that they will be sending you extra money to pay for the shipping of the motorcycle. They ask that you cash the check/money order and give the extra funds to the shipping agent. The shipping agent is the same person that has sent you the check/money order. They have no intention of buying your bike. The fake check/money order you deposited will bounce in a few weeks and you will be out the amount you sent for shipping fees.
