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?

Yes, some may. Or the other trick is they tell you that the money needs to be lodged in escrow "for your protection". But there are these fees, see. Then once you've coughed up a thou or so for "fees" they tell you the deal's gone bad, and you can have your money back. Less fees, freight etc.

But escrow is a Yank thing , they think it makes the buyer safe. Which is does if the escrow company is legitimate. But anyone can start an escrow company.

Next time we see one I say we just bid 10,000 on it, then ignore emails, or try phish the phisherman, - "I need $400 to start an escrow account, convert $NZ to $US, get a quote from UPS, get my stockbroker to free up some capital" etc.
