I'm seeing those scams all over now. They are doing watercraft, ATVs and everything else you can think of. It started a couple years ago with electronics and cameras, everything priced about 1/2 and stated as new. 99% of the time they will only accept Western Union payment which is like sending cash and no matter if you password protect it or any of the other scams they tell you to do to safe guard it they can get it. NEVER fall for one of these scams. Peace.

Actually the auction lists below for $3500 for one of the two 450's. I almost fell for one of the scams, but in the pic of the Raptor it had a car dealer plate on a car in the background. So, I looked up the dealership and called them. The owner of the Raptor had sold it months before but someone was using his pics to fraud people. The way to watch out for them is if they specify the amount is U.S. Dollars, or if they say they will pay shipping costs for you. Think about it... Even if someone would sell a new quad for $3000 there's no way they'd pay all the shipping costs to get it to the U.S. I also found out that a lot of these auctions are set up for drug dealers to clean there money. They put there money in paypal accounts based out of the U.S. and then bid high amounts on certain set up auctions and then transfer the money via paypal. That way paypal cleans the money for the them when they withdraw it in the U.S. To make a long story short do not bid on anything that sounds like a deal to good to be true because most likely it is too good to be true.

yea and u can tell the seller has 0 feedback, is not a registerd user, and the pic is obviously fake, he also copy& pasted the description because he probobly doesn't speak english well. the reason why people will bid 2,000,000 is to warn off other people from bidding on it who arn't aware that its a scam. plus after the auction ebay always takes out about 2-5% (give or take a few %) from the seller from the ending price. so if somone bids 2 mil, the seller is going to be charged $20,000 - 50,000 lol its a way to get back at the scammers. damn b@$t@rd$
