Default People selling sportbikes cheap on eBay?
Does anyone know what the scam is on eBay where the seller lists an expensive sportbike with a low "Buy it Now" for like, $3000? They also tend to make it an approved bidder only thing and don't include anything about shipping, but have "email me" all over their ads.

Do you think it's as simple as a scammer trying to get naive people to send them money?

Yep, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
