Looks like he has already sucked in a few poor souls.

Hope they see sense and don't send any money.

In case it helps anyone I've pointed out some of the obvious 'tells' in the ad so you can help spot these scammers too...

You missed one obvious point Bryan.....the ridiculously low 'buy it now' price.

if the BIN price was £20,595 most folks wouldn't even suspect it as a scam.

That's strange Paps, I'm looking at the link shown by Itinerant and all it shows is £5400, next bid £5500, all following links show the forks!!
must be an iPad fault:Doh:

it appears you have the original listing....

just before it transfers to the scam page it does show £5400 and place bid above £5500.

study the sellers name on the right.

the scammer is kingofchavycars

the proper listing is kingofchevycars which is false anyway and is the bike forks seller in america.

These scam ebays advts always fail to show the sellers feedback and insist on pre-registered buyers.

No feedback link = SCAM big time plus of course the silly price.
