i phone 3g - Scam

By anji_dxb

In classifieds, there is an ad selling an I phone 3g for 800 QR, contact David Brazini. Please do not answer this, this is a scam. I forwarded my money to him, which he had recieved, then said that there had been a packaging mistake, and that I now needed to pay for 20 i phones. They will not return my money. If anyone has experienced the same, can you please contact me.

Thanks.

Oh Come on guys !!! HOw did u seasoned Net users fall for this ... There r so many of these ad's its just basic common sense.. If the phone is 2000 riyals how could 1 possibly sell a brand new 1 for 700 or whatever...

Its better to pay more n get it from here itself... At least u know its Legit !!

U guys right ...... DOnt even bother if cheaper tooo much from the actual website ...same thing with me if Buy Branded purses ...if way cheaper ...I question it ....

And if it a used one make sure they can show you the receipt ... that short of the certification of the genuine ...why buy fake stuff .... u basically throw away ur money down to the drain .... coz it worthless ....

Dont get me wrong I do buy from internet especially when u live here in Doha ...but I always buy from the main website ...like I crazy for Burberry I make sure I bought from their official website ...first is cheaper than the store here and thanks for the lovely aramex ..I can send it to UK or US address ...simple solution .... Go Aramex

he has been posting several times and everytime with different mobile numbers. We should all be careful because the classifieds are being loaded with that. There is also another one named kevin and the new one today is lesley. Don't bother even contacting ads offering less than 1000QAR for iphone because im sure its just a money making scheme.

darling ....

I saw that advertising ...and I did contact that person ...once I know he was not in Qatar , Because I ask him where can I meet him ...he said just send the money , I knew he was not in Qatar...that should be your red Flag .....

It even said in the classified rule .... dont make deal with anybody whose NOT in Qatar

Well U just lost your money darling .......

FYI : Even in the States Iphone is more than 500 US$ How can it be 200 US$ here ....???

When I contact him I thought that person need money or just a used on that he would like to sell....which for me is already strange since that Iphone is a new product ....

O well ...Goodluck try to get back that money coz He wont ...
