Facebook Marketplace and other online marketplace platforms are a godsend for a lot of people, as well as great time-waster for a Friday afternoon. But that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t come without its risks. The internet is full of folks looking to take advantage of your trust, with scammers out to steal your stuff through the art of deception.
This is exactly what happened to an unlucky dude in Huntington Beach, California, when a scammer stole a high-performance e-bike in broad daylight. A report by KTLA explains that the victim, who was identified as Daniel, was trying to sell his Talaria Sting MX4 electric bike on Facebook Marketplace.
