The reply from the other was nearly identical, with a shipping charge of 126$ rather than 96$.
I was curious if anyone had any experience with either site?

If it sounds too good to be true.....

They are one in the same:

http://www.networksolutions.com/whois-search/percian-cycles.com

Also, on the Percian Cycles page, the Macafee and GeoTrust logos look fraudulent as they should be clickable to see the current live status.

Banned. Die in a fire.

Also, this thread makes my brain hurt. WTF kind of spam is this?

This happened already in the energy drink vs coffee thread. Pretty sure the universe is already collapsing because of that.

Time to troll back... we could send an email in ingrish pretending to buy some expensive frame and asking all kinds of weird things, and then post the answers here for public rejoice.

Hey Michael, whatever happened to the money you promised to wire me after being chosen as a winner of the Kenyan lottery? I'm sure you'll get to it soon.

I found this website earlier this year and was in the final stages of ordering a bike when the bank transfer nonsense made me stop in my tracks. It is most definitely a complete scam, as is http://ahmadakbar.com (now suspended), and http://top-cycles.com/.

They are all the same Indonesian scam.

It's just fabulous they are using my order info to perpetuate their scam. If they were in Oz, I would sue.

 

[mike0]

Looks like they have a stack of other scam sites:

paper-printers.com
adik-printer.com
anggi-riangga.com
international-xpress.com
andi-tools.com
sudaryoto.com
ahmadbicycle.com
tamoragindo.com
starscycle.com
international-bicycle.com
ridwan-paper.com
adik-printer.com
world-bicycles.com
ridwan-sport.com

What's extraordinary is how they troll websites trying to control review information about themselves, like our friend above.
