    In all seriousness we just had another.
    These are old accounts being activated so if the user has only 1 or 2 posts if any and then drop you a pm report it straight away please.

    Also recently we’ve noticed they are pretending to be using Tapatalk accounts.

    I think he's been dealt with already, unless he's been in touch again yesterday / today?

    And they still come, scammers who joined in 2013 and ‘engaging in conversation’ for the first time today.

    Please continue to report them

    I had some weirdo offer me a hairpiece just now via PM. He said it had only been used for a year or two and is original badgers bum hair.

    Can you ban this account please?

    I neglected to mention it apparently smells of a mixture of Okd Spice and Hai Karate.

    The Ladies, and some more open minded gentlemen, find it irresistible 60% if the tine, all if the time.

    Just to remind people of the risks.

    also if a user has their name striked through it’s because they are banned

  20. This is a problem in the Tandem Club at the moment, people are now a bit wary of posting stuff up for sale, dodgy transactions, not interested in seeing the bike, ‘it’s for someone else’ etc. I must be a bit thick, as I can’t work out what they gain from it, as they never pick up the bike, I suppose if they say they can’t make it, and ask for their money back?

    edit: just had a read ‘over there’ and they send a ‘cheque’ in excess of funds, don’t want to see the bike, and ask you give the ‘change’ to the courier.
