Were all the claims of boxes being delivered false or was there something else inside them?

Seems to be a hoax.

Maybe it was the floor model (for lack of a better term) for the Apple Stores.

Fake.

Seemed silly to me that they would send out a single box barely big enough to hold a single phone with proper packaging.

People seemed to buy into it though...

That was the reason for my post...I was hoping it maybe was a floor model. Unlikely at this point.

This was what was in those boxes... I really had to laugh at the people who fell for that one. 😱
