Hi y'all.
So I've got this really sweet 2004 or 2005 (full sus) Kona Coiler in very clean condition, that I really don't use very often any more (at least not for what it is intended/designed), so I put an ad on our local Craig's List forum with which to sell it. Get an e-mail back from someone who says she was here in town visiting her son, and wants the bike for her son, but is now again not in town (her text/phone number is based out of Kentucky/US - I am in BC, Canada). I am being asked to forward to her my home address, and phone number details so that she can then mail to me a 'certified banker's cheque' for the asking price plus fifty dollars (for the inconvenience), and she will then make arrangements to have the bike picked up after I have received the 'payment' ....
It really sounds, smells, and feels like there is something fishy with this thing, so I am hesitating to do anything with it. What say all you sleuths out there ... real ... or scam?
