    From TradeMe,

    Dear Squeak the Rat

    Thanks for contacting us.

    In this case I can see that this members account was 'phished' which means a
    scammer effectively hijacked the account to run scam auctions and attempt to
    defraud members. The actual account holder has nothing to do with that
    particular listing, and will be able to continue trading once we can secure
    their account.

    We are doing everything possible to try and prevent phishing on the site, thank
    you for drawing this to our attention.

    I am sorry for any inconvenience that this may have caused.

    If you have any further questions or if I can be of any further help please do
    not hesitate to contact me.

    Regards,

    Ah. That explains why the account looked reasonable.

    How is this kind of scam ever going to work? Is someone really gonna deposit some money before they have even seen the bike?
    Sleep is for the weak.

    And an R1. Mr Phisher has been busy. Both reported. I wish we could find who the bastige is.

    Half tempted to put in a way big bid, then tell him to go stuff himself. But its not worth the hassle.
