This is a SCAM ?! Oh man I glad I found this out now and not latter on. Other wise I would of have been taken for $700.00 Thank you for warning me and every one else on this. Like the old saying goes...If it looks and or sounds too good to be true... IT IS!
I'm in Tucson Arizona and the posting was on Craigslist. I responded and the same story was sent
to me. It is to bad that we have [***] like the so called Jeff Fidson only on the internet scaming
people. If he had any balls at all maybe he would show his face in person. However we all know that a worthless slime has no balls at all. What goes around, comes around ! He will get his soon. Carma will catch up to him.
The free GL1500 motorcycle ad was on the Atlanta Craigslist last night, and I received the same fishy story via email, supposedly from a Steven Bauder. These people use a different false name every time. The posting has now been flagged for removal. Don't fall for stuff like this! That's why Craigslist is adamant about dealing with people locally in person only. These scam artists are probably not even in the United States.
SCAM WAS POSTED ON CRAIGS LIST IN BROWARD COUNTY FL

Thanks for your interest, The bike is still available and am its not for sale am only giving it out .I am currently located at Wellston, Ohio. I have already asked movers to bring the Bike here from my grand-son's house in Huntington Beach,CA and was going to put up a new ad here in Ohio.But my wife Advised me to put up the ad on craiglist as she doesn't want to see the bike anymore cos of the memory of his Grandson.
I bought the Motorcycle for my grandson as his birthday gift last year august. Its 2000 Cagiva Gran Canyon and An Electric Bicycle too, which ever one you want from it. It is two months now since he died and I would like for it to be passed out and seing the bike always brings back it memory and it makes me cry, as the house will be emptied soon and I myself will be relocating to Winnipeg, Canada where I shall stay with other family members for care.
Where are you based pls? If you are able to afford the delivery charges I can coordinate the movers to return the bike to you where-ever you are located in the state as I only gave them the instruction yesterday evening, and I'm sure they will request for fees in turn.
Please let me know your position maybe I can contact the movers. I have attached a photo of it. This was taken two weeks ago. Contact me on 4053566466
He is now using a different name in Dallas, TX and the messages are the exact same .... I am going to try to get some information from them to forward to the authorities so no one ever gets scammed by this person again .... I will update information as I get it ....
