Hello fellow members of the internet,

I'm extremely new to the forum (yes i know my profile says since 2009 but i hardly ever use this forum till recently) so do not mind me posting this here

Anyway, here's the reason for this short write up:

I was recently led to this website, http://consoles-and-games.secondhand.my/so...controller.html by a good friend of mine because he knows that i'm looking for a good bargain on a ps4.

When I saw the post i went !! So bloody freaking cheap <<---- Don't mind the language pls, RM1,000.00 for a NEW PS4, TWO CONTROLLERS and 5 FREAKING FREE GAMES

Like most genuine buyers (yes you and you and you), I immediately emailed that person at gameplazalimited@gmail.com

I simply asked "Hey bro, how are you! Is the console still available?? and don't mind me asking, but why so cheap??"

HE ACTUALLY REPLIED ME! CHECK IT OUT!



I read that and thought to myself.. wtf? He's selling the ps4 by way of delivery via FedEx and payment must be done through Western Union? Sounds dodgy as f*** man. He even asked how the freaking many do I want shipped to my place? Ok, still sounds viable. I replied the handsome fellow saying:


Dear Gameplaza,

May i ask where are you based? And are you a seller?? How much is the ps4 in malaysian ringgit?

Thank you.


Please, i beg you , please open the spoiler and read his reply:



Yup, you read it. He is based in Nigeria.. so fancy.

I got curious so i did a little digging.. I noticed that that same person, with that same email and skype account has been posting his advertisements all over the place.. check it out below:

Notice that he uses the same picture for all the posts???


To sum it all up, I'm not trying to do a name and shame kinda thing here. If its a legit deal, he has absolutely nothing to worry about. In fact, I think I did him a service by providing free advertising by posting it here on one of the most active forums around. BUT if that whole deal is fake then well just dont buy it la.

If any of you has ever dealt with this person, do let me know if its legit.

Thanks for reading

1K for PS4 is impossible. nuff said

Totally agree! Thus i'm sure you can confirm my disbelief and my intuition to dig more I just thought that this post may serve as a warning to anyone who might be gullible

thnks for the warning ts..if that ps4 is rm1000, i will be the 1st one to buy..if that is real..

no need to dig further bro...

from Nigeria? then confirmed it's one of the famous Nigeria Scam already

TS, if it is too good to be true, it probably isn't real. I do believe he is not legit, you have better chance of looking for ps4 bargain in our "games" section under garage sale than his ads.

1. The price is set way under current market price (to attract potential victims)
2. Location of item in Nigeria (too many scam cases from Nigeria)
3. Payment via Western Union (too unsecured unlike Paypal and no way to get money refund)
4. No COD option available (Big red flag here!)

Anyway, thanks for taking the time to post this up. It will helps spread awareness to others to such online scam

Totally agree with you!

why nigerian pipu rike to scam people~

The only way you can get that price is to use the Amazon Marketplace scam on Walmart. Which obviously doesn't work anymore.
