My reply to the scammers email. Like I said i'm going to have some fun first off.
"Hello, Thank you for the reply about your bike. So the bike isn't located in Holiday, FL? That presents a small problem. I was really hoping to have something this week. This will be the first time I purchase a bike over the internet. So how does this work with ebay? Is there someone with ebay I can contact to verify this is legit? I just don't want anything to happen with my money and be out a bike. I don't have a car, so the motorcycle will be my only transportation."

Here is his reply to my reply. He clears things up so much here LMAO. What a tool.
"OK,I just received your email. I'm not good at explications but I will try to explain you how it will work from now on: 1) You'll send me your full name and your shipping address. 2) I will contact eBay and open a case. 3) They will contact you with all transaction details,invoice. 4) You will make the payment like is stated on invoice. 5) You will send the payment details at eBay. 6) They will contact me that the payment is OK. 7) I will send you the bike to your address and send you the tracking number from the shipping company so you can check it online. 8) After you will receive the bike and only if it is like I described you will contact eBay to release the payment details to me. 9) You will get your new bike and they will pay me.Let me know if you understand how it work.Thanks and have a good day.Bye"
