The internet moves pretty fast. So fast in fact that sometimes we cannot see the obvious scams that hit us blindside on a daily basis. Before you do anything online like buy something expensive or lay down your credit card I want you to stop and think. It only takes a second to make a mistake and when you make mistakes online they can cost you big time. There are a lot of new scams on the Internet that you need to be aware of.
Selling and buying Kawasaki OEM parts on the web seems pretty harmless. In fact, it seems like a normal thing to do and that it can carry very little risk. But the truth is there are a lot of things that can go wrong when you are trying to sell your Kawasaki motorcycle online. You might find yourself in a potentially lucrative situation. Every once in a while you may get an inquiry from Europe. It turns out that someone in Germany is looking for a bike just like yours. He is willing to even pay you more than what you want for it. This seems too good to be true and you can be sure that it is.
Even if you got a big box of Kawasaki OEM parts this can happen to you. No matter if you have a crate of Yamaha or Honda OEM parts there is a buyer out there looking for what you got. The transaction seems harmless enough. The buyer seems like he is legit because he offers you a cashiers check from a bank in Europe and you take it because you want to secure the deal. When you deal with another country you will want to be very careful. It is very easy to send over a bad cashiers check and you're bank will most likely not catch it for a few months. Keep in mind that once they uncover the bad check that the bank will hold you totally responsible for the charges. You will find yourself paying back the bank for turning in a phoney cashiers check. The joke is on you.
Worse, the buyer has already arranged to have your Kawasaki atv parts property sent over to Europe never to be seen again. This can happen for cars and ATV's too. This type of scam is actually pretty popular and a lot of victims aren't too comfortable with coming out into the open. But more victims need to tell their story because this is a traumatic thing and it can happen to you. You need to take note of this scam because it is very popular and a lot of people are victimized every year because of it.
There are terrible rip off scams that happen every single month on the web. As a smart online web surfer you need to be aware of them.
