"Secom Cycle" previously.

This isn't the only one. There's another who keeps using hijacked accounts and
advertises expensive bikes without a size and claims to have many sizes in
stock as he is liquidating his small shop.

Remove the ns_ from if replying by e-mail (but keep posts in the
newsgroups if possible).

I say we all keep them busy by asking a lot of questions. Ask where they are
located and then say you will be in town and want to pick up the bike in
person.

For a while, but he's back with a new user ID and email address.

Those photos were cropped that way on the manufacturer's website, if
you're talking about the Litespeeds.

He's claiming to be in the UK now. It was San Diego originally. My
bet is that he's somewhere closer to Kiev.
