gmccombe804

hey so i was trolling the internet recently and came across this website and another like it but not as cheap.
its based in North Sumatera. which is in Indonesia. and basically they're selling a 2011 model Felt AR5 for £417!!, which is incredibly cheap i think.
so im actually thinking of buying it but i dont know if ts a hoax, fake, scam or actually genuine!.....so i need your experience and knowledge to help me out on this please!,

here is the website.

If it looks too good to be true - then it probably is!! Personally I wouldnt risk £417 finding out

Indonesia, dont touch them with a bargepole-def fake. Why not drop them a line telling them you are coming to Indonesia to visit friends and would like to pick up a bike while you are there. I bet you dont even get a reply.

Apart from that price do not include import tax ( at least a 100 quid)

I remember seeing a few threads a couple of years ago about fakes coming out of Indonesia. Stay clear

I live in Singapore

All those sites are most definitely fake, don't waste your money.

This doesn't look too promising http://www.ripoffreport.com/donny-andik ... -b612a.htm and there appears to be more where that came from.

I'd keep my money in my pocket if I were you.

fakes get real. there is nothing coming out. they just take your money and send nothing.

google them - loads of reports on them.

couple of points about fraud.
1. its a 2 second job to scrape a legit site and build fake one
2. lots of value in allowing you to go through the buy on line and then cancel the transaction - your data is worth about 10-50 quid.

and all that is before they take your cash.
lastly you've got taxes to pay even if its legit. both import duty and vat unless you can show otherwise.

The site is also a 1 year turnaround due to expire on 30th april.
Mr Sulaman Dhucatti registered it through a verisign and as above is fake.
I have the home address of the registration signee and it doesnt look like a place where a bike shop owner would live (hell hole).

That will be all Mr bond.

I don't know, they sell Campag Shamal's for £200. That is a very generous price. They must be nice guys.

Go for it, probably legit if your initial feeling was high enough to consider asking on here.
Dont forget to leave a review of the bike when it arrives.

If it goes pear shaped and you lose your cash, I can link you up with this Nigerian guy who will quadruple any money you send him
