Hello everyone,
I found my stolen bike on Gumtree. The theft was reported to the police the day it happened, but due to the w/end and bike theft being low priority, they (cops) want me to call back tomorrow for any update i might have. In the meantime do you think I should report the ad to Gumtree admins. The person I spoke to at the Met's call centre did not have an opinion (no surprise there).
Also, if you have spotted a bargain bike on Gumtree recently, check with me if its stolen (you can private-message me). I don't want to give too much away publicly as I don't want to scare off the thieving scum bags.
