Either stolen, a scam, or the greatest CL deal ever

I was wondering if any of you were seeing this Pinarello TT ad in your venues:

A grand for a Team Sky TT bike with race wheels. Hmm...

Well, it IS a mountain bike, so it fits different

I think this is a simple typo, the seller meant $10,000.

[ultraman6970]

offer the guy 450 bucks and see what happens.

Nigerian man found dead in his apartment with 14 million dollars.
He's been trying to give it away for years, but no one believed him.

I don’t use Craig’s List, but if the shaded circle is the location of the seller, he/she lives in a less affluent part of Indianapolis.

well to be fair, the ad does say "less than half price" so the seller isnt wrong

I have found on these Craigslist ads if there is no location in parentheses in the subject line with a super low price then it is a scam.

I wonder if I can leverage my inheritance from the Nigerian prince...

Most of the scam hot deals on CL are folks just trying to harvest email and phone numbers.

Literally hundreds of such car deals every day and in every state, with the same car being listed everywhere even over the border!

I used to see a Gmail.com contact addy on almost all such ads a couple of years back.

Also they used a random-mispell generator so the same ad wouldn't be auto-flagged for being posted to every city. All of the vehicles looked new and shiny and featured luxury wheels (and in a luxury setting).
