So bassically Monday afternoon, i stopped on way home to pick a few things up my bike got stolen. I reported it to police when i got home.
I've been told to also keep an eye out. My older brother and friends told me to keep an eye out on like ebay.
So i found some weird pages. Well first one yesterday and a different one.
1st:
So the first one is the description matched my bike but the picture was a complete different bike. So messaged the seller. Just wondering how come you said you have a Cross bike but the picture is off a muddy fox bike. He instantly replied sorry my mistake. It\s a cross i have. I then replied back you should put the right picture on. No reply so i sent another message lying saying to try to get a bit more informatin. I bassically said i was asking as i might be interested but i would like to see a picture of the bike and also to know the serial number.
(It's also being selling for 75 pounds)
2nd.
I found a page of a screenshot of the same bike i had but just of a order page being sold for 70 pounds I then messaged this one and this is what i said?
Me: Hello, could you send the serial number?
Reply: Why do you need this? you could make a claim through insurance or buy it
Me: Why can't you give it?
Reply: Because i am a police officer and it doesn't sound right.
Dunno what i should say back?
ps am i right thinking these pages are fishy (thing is my stolen bike was a cross that matched these pages and the only way to make sure it's mine is to check the serial number, the 1st one seems odd as if it was a mistake wouldn't you off changed the picture as soon as someone said. 2nd page seems odd: as if he's police officer, It doesn't make sense what he said as 1. Bike shops are allowed to give serial numbers so it seems weird there being secretive. Plus why would a police officer be selling a bike online? It seems more like a cover up. :
What should i do??
ps I don't want to contact my local police till i'm sure its mine and the only way to know this is by finding out the serial number
