Prety much as per the title, some nice chap e-mailled me today enquiring to the provonnance of a Carrerahe'd seen on his local Gumtree listings that bore some remarkable similarites to the one I sold here a while back.
So remarkably alike were our bikes that the seller had used my pictures and my entire description of the bike, verbatim. Now the seller is located a long way from my customer so it is really unlikely to be the same bike.
So I ask you
WTF?
STW comes out fairly high in Google searches. If I wanted to sell a bike and CBA to write an advert...
(maybe)
It's a very common scam. Item is somewhere remote (actually does exist/ belong to scammer) cheap price. Gets the odd sucker apparently.
#edit. I meant to say does'NT exist..... Etc. Doh
Can you not report it to Gumtree?
