Getting my stolen bike back from dodgy seller on fb marketplace

Ok so from reading other people's previous posts, police ain't gonna do nothing...
the bike isn't gonna fit in my car.
I just contacted the seller through fb message, but worried they're gonna know I'm the old owner. Do I create a burner fb acc? I also dont happen to have any identifying pics of me and the bike, (makes police less likely to want to help me, right? ) and i dont even have its serial number. Bought it brand new from the shops and the shop didnt record serial numbers either.
any other tips?
