Hi all,

I have been looking at several motorcycles online. And alot of people want me to send a westurn union etc and put it on one of my brothers names etc a bunch of weird stuff. So I talked with someone else and they said to use a escrow service. Was wondering if anyone had used one and how well it worked. One guy offered me to use one but it wasnt escrow.com it was http://www.royaltripletrader.com so I have heard of people setting up sites etc. Is there anyway to make sure this is a legit site to use etc? Please help me out

few things to address....

1.)the ONLY certified escrow site is http://www.escrow.com 99% of the others are rip-offs, cons and scams. check out www,escrowfraud.com, click services, and there will be a list of fradulent escrow sites. there are multiple variations of websites with "triple" and "royal". I wouldnt do it.

2.) If you found a buyer online, do not send a western union, money gram etc. Most of the time, these companies do not offer a tracking system to locate the money if you do get scammed and I gaurantee you, you will be scammed if they ask you to put it in your brothers name, or send it to a friends house or other bullshart like that.

do not do it, period. IMHO, and my scammed personal self, dont make the same mistake. If its too good to be true, it is.

I have used escrow.com to buy some wheels. It's the best way to make a transaction if you can not use Paypal.

I would recommend using escrow.com
