Has any heard of rawshipping.com?

I am planning to buy a mountain bike from a seller in Tampa.First he asked me to use a bank transfer.I suggested using escrow and he sent me to rawshipping.Again I asked him to use escrow.com I am waitting for an answer,I´ll let you know .............

ebay sent me an alert about an user called "sandy", sendy invited me to use rawshipping.com.... then i serch on google to find something about it and i find just this forum.... 1+1=2! rawshipping is a fraud.

Is this the company with the nude drivers?

I've been trying to arrange the purchase of a mountain bike from someone as well who wants me to use rawshipping.com.

I did a "whois" search and found that the domain name was registered less than a month ago.

It seemed like the deal was too good to be true ($1500 for a Specialized Enduro S-works). After some searching I found he used exactly the same add as someone else's classified from last Fall. His "name" is Piticul Purcelus.

A little bit of searching always pays off...

I also came across a too good to be true ad for a Mountain bike. Searching, I found the ad posted across the country under different names and locations. I had the local listing at craigslist.org taken down but continued to email the "seller" to find out more about him. When he suggested rawshipping.com I also did a whois serch and found it was only just established. Hmmm. Looking further using nslookup I found it was being served by yahoo from p3w9.geo.re2.yahoo.com so I reported it to yahoo. They sent back a canned response asking for more info. I have just noticed another ad on craigslist and had it taken down also. I have also replied to yahoo to get them to investigate rawshipping. Hopefully they will do something this time.
