I emailed the guy and his response is as below....

Sir,

I`m selling because i have helt problems and i can`t ride anymore. The bike I am offering is in a perfect condition, it has no scratches no crashes and no accidents Perfect shapes, anxious to be ridden, willingly to give you the best thrills.Clean title and no raced.

I will add to Pre-approved only the buyer who will send payment in advance ( at least $2500). After i will receive the advance i will add to Pre-approved list and he will be the winner(First buyer who send the advance will be the winner and owner of the bike)with "BUY IT NOW" option. In this way i will know you are interested and serrious.Please don`t take it like an offense but i want to complete the deal and finish the delivery( i will pay shipping costs) in perfect condition.The bike its in shipping company warehouse , ready to go. (Berklay Air Express its the Shipping Company i use for delivery)

Payment in advance must be via Western Union.Remaining payment ( $2500)you will send after you will have the bike in front of your door.

Yea, if this is not a scam I don't know what is. BE CAREFUL! They've been doing this with cars for a while now. IF something sounds too good to be true.......

TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!!! ABSOLUTELY...

provided bogus VIN number. I talked with the current owner. His bike is in his garage. Shipping company listed has tried to hang this guy several times. This is a total scam.

The eBay Ad is definitely a scam! I check the Cycletrader Ad recently and the real owner of the MV has this listed:

2002 MV AGUSTA F4S 1+1 Diamante, (THIS IS A LEGITIMATE AD WITH REAL PICTURES & ACCURATE DESCRIPTION. THE AD ON EBAY IS NOT MINE AND IS A FRAUD.) PRICE REDUCED, MUST SELL!

Here's a link to the Cycletrader Ad: http://adcache.cycletrader.com/5/8/2/46005782.htm

I am the owner of this bike. I bought it from those guys over eBay. The guys are very serious people! The scamers are the "buyers"! Sellers, don't fall in theyr trap they are using fake escrow serives. Afther you will delever your products you will never here back from them! Don't shipp any bikes to persones who are trying to use some fake escrow services for payment!
