Public Advisory: Beware of Scammer

warning Manila - An alarming situation came to our notice that an alleged scammer "Jose Luis Erik Balana" is victimizing a lot of our fellow riders online. The alleged person is selling frames and bike parts at a very low and seducing price as it is really hard to resist. The public is warned to take extra precautions as the scammer knows how to make the interested buyer believe that the transaction is safe and legal. He introduces himself well and even tells stories and other tales that he knows this person\s just to get in the mood for his advantage. He will be asking for you to deposit your payment or your money in his bank account or send it via money sending centers, by giving his name which might not be his true name but was able to receive the money from the source by maybe using false identification documents.

The scammer also victimized numerous riders before in other forums like PMTB and such likes, using the usernames StevePeat, santacruzboy, SolidSweater, etc.
