Hi all,
I was browsing the MTBA classifieds website as i am in the market for a Trek Top Fuel or similar... and came across this link....
http://www.mtba.asn.au/classifieds/detail.asp?iType=13&iAd=4771
Claiming to be able to send a Top Fuel 9.9 (which is usually 10k) for USD $ 3,516.00
So i decided to email them... however, they claim to be in Middlesex, London, but i was receiving emails from them ... at 3am middlesex time! and why is their prices in USD and not local curency. They claim that they would send "goods" cash on delivery but i had to wire transfer the shipping and insurance cost of sending the bike over:
Insurance Charges === USD 292.00
FedEx International Express === USD 318.00
To me, this screams scam! ...has anyone else come across this... as surely this is not legit!
