Now that would be cool and funny at this point.

No chance of that! EBay emailed her that they have found the site and broken the link to EBay. Even after the "sale", when she clicked the link, it took her to the actual Ebay Motors site...slick! Shit, she got an "email confirmation" from the shipper that the bike is en route and would be here tomorrow between 12 and 4 pm...slick! Again, she was stupid and I should have looked at the deal harder for and asked more questions/got more involved her but.... We've been dating for a few months and her dealings are really none of my business imho...

Wire transfer should have tipped anyone off. Hopefully she gets her money back... it's an expensive lesson. Didn't State Farm run the VIN?

If I had known about the wire transfer, I would have freaked out but I didn't until after the deed was done. You guys have to remember that she doesn't live with me and I'm not her Daddy. We go days at a time without seeing each other.

I don't know, if it's a legitimate vin then State Farm will write a policy, right? I could go to the dealer and write down a vin and put insurance on every bike there if I wanted. Heck, I could call Allstate right now and put insurance on your bike if I have the vin....

Dude, she's a grown up - it's not your "fault" and it shouldn't be your job to tell her how to spend her money.

I just never knew someone that fell for it, that's all. I mean, who wires money to someone for something sight unseen without actual proof that said object exists? Paypal would even be a stretch for a big dollar object - but, a direct wire transfer?? I shouldn't be in shock - people must do it all the time or there wouldn't be scammers out there continuing to do it.

sorry to hear about the loss tiggs. My only regret from starting on a 600 was my dumbass sold it when i bought the 954. Semi sorta looking for another hurricane as a daily beater/project. Wish i hadnt sold mine

I got the wrong part from eBay once. Paid with PP. They refunded my money when the seller wouldn't give me the correct part. Took forever but I got my money back. Then sold that fucking part too. Double win.
