Saw this advert in Gumtree in the Derby area, maybe other areas too ..

It looks a bit suspicious especially considering whats wanted and the prices and quantities etc
Or am I being sceptical?
A quick go on Google translate, from plain English into 'Dodgy Bastard-speak' came back with this:
Have you just nicked a high end mountain bike? Then give me a call! Cash on the nail, no questions asked!
This came up last night, someone suggested it was a lure to trap the thieving bastids.
I hope it is!
yeah could be a honey trap
Or it's a means of getting the addresses of people with high end bikes
Addresses was my first thought; I wouldn't trust it.
smells like address collecting to me, might pretend I'm hora too see if he gets robbed 😉
Ring them up and tell them you have a Santa Criz for them... Then yell Ho Ho Ho down the phone
just mailed the link to bikeregister.com, there very grateful ...
