Fraudulent Items for Sale!

I would like to start a discussion about an experience that I just recently had. I will keep the story short and hopefully to the point, now I am in the market to purchase another motorcycle. So the new thing to do to find such items besides Ebay is Craigslist. While searching craigslist I stumbled upon a 2002 Ducati 748 Monoposto that was absolutely breathtaking. The price was unbievable at just $3100 American buckaroos! So I jumped all over the deal. Emailing the seller was my next step in coming closer to owning such a bike. while emailing back and forth I just started to not feel right. Now coming from such a business background I believe gave me enough gut feeling to just watch my self in this deal so I would not get burnt. Long story short. If I would have followed through with all of the instructions I would have lost $3100 American buckaroos to some chap in London with no bike and minus some pride. Why and how are these people allowed to post fraudulent items like this, why is there nobody monitoring this kind of stuff? The worst part about it is that while i was smart enough to not get f-ed in the deal, someone else will.
