Not via this site, but I've been scammed buying a MTB via PinkBike. Long and short of it is my own fault for being too trusting... and not doing the checks before sending money... and bank transferring the cash! £900 so not a massive amount but enough to piss me off.

The advert - http://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/2124377/

Friday 10th Feb - After a few msgs and then emails I sent the money and he promptly fell off the face of the earth.

He gave his full name and address, but these are prob not real.

Joseph / Joe Mitchinson - joemitchinson2011@outlook.com

293 ormskirk road
Wn59dn
Greater Manchester

His bank account details

Barclays Bank

Account number 90639389
Sort code 20 25 95

I also have some headers from email but nothing pointing to aliases.


********************************************************************
I've since done a bit of digging on the bike (should have done this first eh!) and spoke to the guy who built it, and got the contact details for the owner who had not long sold it. Described the advert and low and behold it sounds like someone has just lifted the previous owners advert.

Can anyone help trace this clown? I'm going to speak to the bank to try and retract the payment but not holding out much hope of that. Can anyone trace the account holders name/details from the acc/sort code?

Involving the police - I guess i'll need to really, but any advice on who/where? I'm out in NZ just now so cant nip in past the local station LOL

pic of the add in case it disapears.

Is that address likely to be his?

Ad says Rochdale but address is Wigan?

It's about 5 miles from me so I could go and knock on the door?

sadly pinkbike have shut him down. I had asked they leave him active so I could probe further... understand why they need to do it though.

I've asked for any other account names/emails he's used to setup the other account they mentioned

This lad is based in Wigan under that name. (Well I assume he is as a lot of his friends are from Wigan)

i am 'bothered' but its not like its the end of the world :/

It makes me sound a bit of a cunt saying 900 doesnt bother me... but when you read other folks stories 900 isnt terrible.

Folk get taken for 5-6000 regularly it would seem Or all of their savings etc

whats annoying me more is the total lack of anything that can seemingly be done.

Banks wont do anything....

Police wont care as its going to involve time/resources....
