Hello,
I'm very interested in your KTM that you have for sale on PistonHeads.
I have to tell you that I'm currently out of country with some major business problems so I can come for collection only in about 2 weeks.
That's why I want to make a deposit of £900 to reserve the bike.
From my experience I know that certain listings are associated with fraudulent activity, as a precaution please send copies of the following:
- government-issued photo identification (passport or driving licence)
- evidence of address (bank statement or utility bill).
- Proof that the item listed is in your possession (Receipt, bill of sale)
As soon as I will receive these documents, I will send you the deposit using MoneyGram or Paypal.
Send me also your phone#.

Cheers!
Mark,

What do you lot reckon?

Well its a different slant on the nigeria scam asking to accept money in return for allowing them to deposit a substantial ammount of money in your account,i find it strange that these people scan sale sites to send these mails out,supose all they need is a couple to fall for it out of the hundreds they send out


Nearly as bad as they guy who rang me and asked me to go pick him up to come view the bike!

Didnt agree to that either........
