I hope someone here can give me some advice! My bf and I put both of our motorcycles up for sale on a free classifieds site last night. For some reason my posting didn't go through until about 3 am, but his was up on the site around 9 pm. At around 10 I got an email already, with a guy saying he's very interested in bf's bike and do we have any more information to add. So bf emailed back and asked what else he wants to know. The guy said he just wanted to make sure we didn't leave anything out, and he's willing to pay the asking price, and can he pay with Paypal. He said he's not around right now but he'll pick the bike up from our location later.

The first red flag for me, is the bike wasn't even listed for an hour and he's willing to spend $6500 on something he's never seen in person, PLUS all of bf's gear without trying anything on?

Second, he asked for more pictures and my boyfriend asked what he wants pictures of, thinking he just meant maybe pictures of the jacket, helmet, gloves... but he just said "Just some more close-up pictures" ????? I don't mind sending more pictures if they know what they want to see... but we have put up pictures from all sides of the bike, and a close-up of the "dash" to show the KMs and display. He doesn't even seem to know what he wants to see.

Third, he's just being really pushy about "I need your registered paypal account email so I can send the money" like he wants to get on this RIGHT NOW.

There are many other bikes up for sale right now, and some are cheaper and newer than bf's (which is why we named a price and included OBO) so we don't know why he zeroed in on this one right away. I just have a weird gut feeling about it, and so does my bf. He thinks this guy is just weird.

If we give him our Paypal information, is there any way he can scam us? Or is it totally secure?? I've used Paypal before, but I've never dealt with someone who seems so sketchy.
