are people really this stupid?

Omg end in two mins, someone is getting a fake iphone in the post!:eek:
 
ebay are **** for take downs i reported it hours ago, and since they keep bidders identities secret u cnt warn them :eek:
 
On another forum I frequent they have a section specifically to call out fakes and things like this. The idea is the people can read and report the fake themselves, the more that report it the quicker it gets taken down.

One person reporting a fake does about nothing but ten gets a pretty quick take down.
 
a couple years back a friend of mine texted me, very excited about her new iPhone. The next time I saw her she had this terrible knock-off. I didn't say anything because I knew I would have just pissed her off. Hope she didn't pay too much for it.
 
Oh my lord...look at the incorrect placement of the flash as well as the totally incorrect writing on the back...

Kind of creepy pictures of the phone. Was this guy naked when he took the picture? Notice his foot in the lower right?

Some people go barefoot in their house. :p

That was amusing but it looks like the auction ended, a bit unfortunate for the winning bidder. Also, there is some tape covering the front of the phone? Oh lordy.

Yeah I just noticed that wtf...its weird though. 100% Satification I'm not sure if there is a way to fake that on eBay but whatever. No Returns is kind of a red flag and the "Don't like touch screens" part trying to reinforce his reasoning further shows the sketchiness :O
 
Another thing to add to the "sketchy list" is that the seller writes that their partner binned both the box and hands free kit. I can understand the box being binned but who in their right mind would throw out a hands free kit.

It could just be the seller received the iPhonecopy as a gift and was so stupid that he thought it was real. The fact the partner binned the handsfree kit further demonstrates their stupidity.
 
Very weird. The "phone' is held together with tape or something. Let's hope he is wearing some clothes and someone doesn't spot a reflection of his body. :eek:
 
well the bid is over.

Its guys/gals like you true apple fans that help the little guys like me - hoping to return the favour more and more each time around.

Wonder if there was a way with the original information to notify Apple to stop others from succumbing to such subterfuge and guile in the future?
