Ordered bike from Willaim Patrick of Specialized Components Limited in UK.  Sent half of the payment $1,000 and was to send the rest of the payment on delivery of bike.  His shipping company www.potserved.com.  Is also a scam, they gave me a tracking number and when I tracked the package they said it was stuck in Canada.  I now was told to send another $700 to release my bike from customs.  Told them to send me some proof that bike was in customs, but they just told me to check the tracking number on their website.  Once $700 came to them they would release my bike and then give me the details.  I don't think so.

      This is good to know as I was also checking with them about purchasing a Specialized bike and the deal looked almost too good to be true. So thanks for posting this blog as else I might have also lost quite a bit of money!! I would say spread the word so no other people are getting f*cked over.

      So you never got your bike??

    I saw it as "too good to be True" and decided to follow up with a check online. Sorry to hear about your situation, hope you're able to work it out. I'm sure you're not alone, I would try to find others and see if you can team up to get this scammer- post it on mtbr.com, it has members all over the world, so maybe you can get help tracking this guy down.
    Thank you for posting

    I'm in contact with the same guy at the moment and he is still offering Specialized bikes. Thanks for posting this on the blog. I will certainly not order from him.

    Did you ever get your money back?
