Man gets fake bills for used motorcycle

MILTON, Ga. — A Milton man reported to police Sept. 26 that someone paid for his motorcycle with $3,000 in counterfeit bills.

He told police he tried to deposit the money that morning, but that the ATM would not take the deposit. The victim said the bank teller informed him they were fake, according to the police report.

The victim listed his motorcycle on Craigslist the day before and received an email from a man who picked up the motorcycle the same evening. The man had offered to pay for it with $3,000 in cash, the victim said, and placed the money in an envelope.

Police could not find the motorcycle leaving the area on Flock cameras, the report said.
