Forumer you are complaining against: facebook pfofile though.First one 'X'@ Samsung Kedai Handphone. 2nd one 'Y'

Item being sold/bought: I didn't bought any.

Details of the complaint :The thing is like this.im not even sure whether this is a scam and whether these 2 ppls are related or not.

But then last week this so called X added me.And shows his current working place is in an apple store in Seremban.He even added pictures like apple dinner with his colleagues and so on.And few days later he started adding phones pictures.Both 2nd hand and new set.And with really attractive price as well. iphone 4s 16GB RM19++.Galaxy tab 7.0+ used 2 months RM1000.And that was why i made contact with him and ask for his place.

And because my place is pretty far thats why the deal isn't on.But few days later he started to change his name into 'samsung Kedai Handphone' and change his job into 'samsung online store'.Then i realise some of those customers posted on his wall asking whether he can do COD insteadd of only postage.And one or two or those had already banked-in their money as well.

so This morning.There was this girl with a sexy profile pic named Y added me.(one thing forgot to mention.Both are newly created accounts with few frends and information.And when i looked into her profile,she also works in samsung mobile.And her location is in penang.And when i browse through her profile.I can see her price are pretty cheap as well.There is when i started to get suspicious.But when i continue to browse her page i saw the tab7.0+ picture exactly the same with that previous X .That's when i get suspicious and try to search for him in my fren list to confirm.But then his profile his no more there.

so is this a potential scam?or have i offended anyone here?Bcause this person has also added my frens.that's why im worried.

if its not appropriate here just delete it. Btw X and Y is not the real name.And if anyone feels like going into the matter i can pm you the details of Y.
