Ok here it goes,i was about to buy this iphone 3gs from some guy in the Uk. He said i must send the money through Western Union money transfer,but will use any name that i want, like my brother or father's name, which means that i'll use any name of my choice as the recipient of the money, but the payment will be in his direction in Uk. With this method they cant receive the money because the payment does not take their cashier name, but for them to be sure that i have sent the money so they can ship out the package. As soon as i receive my package i need to go back to Western Union and change the name that i put the receiver into their cashier's name so that they can receive the money so both parties are safe. Guys,i really need your help. Please. Heres some details about his shop which i dont know whether i can trust or not.

This is a real company.. i am in the UK now. so there u have it.

its better to buy local in malaysia as a previous comment stated, and buy it COD.

buying over the internet is big here in the UK due to the trust issue, its better than in malaysia. and driving to london is easier than for u to fly here for that iphone. and they love to sue...

so my advice, forget the locked phone here (most prob) and get a local maxis/digi/celcom set wink.gif

cheers
