I put a ad up for my bike on Craigslist and I get some weird emails back.


From:
Lizzy <lizzy_musper116@hotmail.com

Hello, could you tell me about the fork and front wheel condition?Please let me know asap because I want to buy it in a few days,thanks.

Now I never had in my ad anything about front end problems or nothing.:confused:

And then this one.

From:
Krista <Jamesarisa@cox.net

the motorbike is involved in accidents.thanks.

And I never said it was in a accident.


Any idea what this is about or is this a new type of spam?

Its spamer/scamer you get alot of those on craigslist. you'll get things like "i'm sending you payment for your sale" or " are you owner number 1?" stuipd things probly coming from overseas.

Just spammer bs.

It works both ways too. I emailed a guy about a toyota tacoma like 2 years ago iirc. They email back and provide the vin so I had a free unlimited carfax so I do it, lol sucker comes up as a real VIN alright but to a 1989 toyota pick up.

Gotta be careful. Id just ignore those messages myself.
