Default Motorcycle Scams

Saw a screaming deal on the local craigslist here locally. A Valkyrie 1999 for $3k. Too good to be true unless the thing has 100k miles.

So I get an email stating the guy is in the UK and he has a 3rd party company who will handle the transaction, respond if interested in details.

I can't access my email from work but I know this is someone asking for cash and promising goods later, I'll post the email for you.

I asked him this morning for a picture of the speedometer to bait him a bit further. I hate scammers, I'd like to make him feel some pain just sitting here wondering how I could do it.

Any suggestions?
