An Electric Fat Bike for $138? THIS IS A SCAM

[daytriker]

I don't know if this is legit or a scam. I have seen these same bikes offered on various websites from the same manufacturer for $7-800. which looked like a pretty good deal but now I find them for $138. with free shipping & 10% off. - Be interesting to see if there is a scam going on or if the battery is an extra $500. or something similar. - https://www.bunzfeed.com/fat-tire-c2

Huh. I see why you'd wonder.

Maybe they'd send on to Court for a review. LOL.

Golly, sounds legit to me. I'll send them a check, right after I send one to that Prince in Nigeria, and to the IRS agent that called and said they would arrest me if I didn't send them a check. Glad I have lots of checks.

As soon as I can get to my Western Union Office I'll wire cash so they can ship ASAP...

It is possible they are legit. They could be end of line or found to have a defect or from a bankrupt manufacturer. It does happen. We were searching for Folding Mini Bikes from China for adding Power Assists to & found them for $25.00 each delivered from China. The catch was we had to order 100 or something at a time & we just didn't have the space for that many bikes.

jwt355, many banks decline foreign purchases like this without a verbal confirmation from the card's owner. Please read the info from ScamAdvisor above, go to that site for details. This is NOT a legit company.
