Saw this pop up this morning. I saw a few links on Facebook too. https://cyclingindustry.news/fraudulent-brand-stores-sweep-facebook-with-sponsored-adverts/
I think you'd have to be pretty damn stupid to have fallen for any of those.

Partridge Cycles, a main dealer of Giant Bicycles has got in touch to report their experience with the scammers.
“In our case we have had a Giant representative ring us to complain about what was deemed to be us selling at crazy low prices. .”
Nice to see the big brands still hard at work to ensure prices are fixed.

To be fair at the kind of prices we're talking about the rep probably was more worried about unpaid bills than anything else.
Price fixing , in the cycle trade ? I don’t believe it
Turns out Scott have launched legal action against these sites https://cyclingindustry.news/scott-takes-legal-action-against-fraudulent-stores-sweeping-facebook/
"As reported, people are falling for the scam in numbers"
Reported where? I can't see these [i]numbers[/i]! 😆
And how is Scott taking legal action against people that can't be traced? What a crap story (more realistically described on the STW news page)
I thought they taking action with the host sites for not taking them down? (or not doing it quick enough)
Maybe they have to do something like that to get it logged and for the police etc to investigate?
Cool one of them will go nice with my 85% off Oakley sunglasses!
Frequently see the less intelligent of my contacts sharing adverts for £15.99 raybans.
Haha! Share this post and win a £100 Tesco voucher or Audi Q7
Could be legit in 2014 scott had 1/2 million quids worth nicked
They will have cooled down now
