I am sure this some kind of scam and it is very sad some one would use the death of such a good man to do harm to others.

I had someone claiming to be away from home so they couldn't see the bike in person, offer to buy my RM250C2 I have for sale, for full price, no questions asked and pay by PayPal and have their "agent" pick it up, which is the tip word I see a lot with Nigerian scams. Sorry, no sale. Mike

Some of these scams like the one above you have to be a real bone head to fall for, but the real sad thing is that they will never be punnished!
