can somebody comment, can this seller be trusted?

I really think you should not. Unlocked sets don't come that cheap. Don't forget that with all the hype, it just means lots of opportunities for cheaters and people who profit sky high

cod with him/her la
so u will know

too soon to tell until you get to see the actual unit and feel it !

Ahahahahaha ... it's a scam

Buy this and you can kiss your $$$ goodbye ...

he'll ask for deposits 1st

hahha..

Mudah is so full of it ..

"Good things never cheap".. enuff said

i will ask mudah to remove the ads since..the price already increased!

pop

rm1500 is still cheap

but i think it is bogus

If this is real I will give him another RM1k to minum kopi

haha,that is so truee.. =p

funny... people cant think right when comes to cheap prices...

Funny thing is there'll actually ppl that falls to scam even thought its so obvious!

no.. they havent fall becoz they inquire the seller...

they really fall if they already paid...

i remember there is case that the money paid to the seller and the buyer received a package of a brick the next day via poslaju...

correct..

me just asking opinions!

pop

4sure scam lah... unless apple is belongs 2 him!

^ who knows if he is steve in disguise

market survey kot...

killer price comes with killer scam

dont believe it, i called out the seller...and they say..i have to call the company then bla2...dun believe...its a fake..

man...i tink i started da trend of ridiculous price statements....
gosh...
tings ppl do 2 cheat

tbh...

i welcome those who really did their homework to cheat others ...but i loathed at those that did a shallow scheme to cheat the public.

if u wanna scam/cheat, please do so with more effort....

and oh...btw if RM1.5 for 16gb 3g unlock. i'll sell my house, car, notebooks,clothes, designer wallet and i'll buy a container loaded with it.

$699 x 3.4 = rm2376 leh.

I was wanted to ask this questions too,i tot he will show us with his 2000++aifontriji

got link to the thread?

People please beware with this RM909 iphone scam.


I myself came across it and currently looking for an iphone for myself, i had to call up the person.
A male voiced picked up the phone and told me that he is the agent and if i can sms him my email he will forward it to the company.
Then i asked him if these iphones are genuine and not those replicas made in china..he answered 'Yes they're genuine from USA with warranty' (obviously he would be affirmative).

So through out the day,the "company personnel" and I exchanged emails on some facts and shipment details.
I explained that i would require him to snap a photo of the product with his name next to it as proof that it's available for real. But in return
he sends me a link claiming his company is registered in UK and is legit.

Here's the link : http://www.ukdata.com/creditreports/viewCo...panyId=04690496

I had my suspicion from the start after looking at the exceptionally below market price of the iphone.secondly the emails sent to me were in very informal manner ( like tidak-apa case ). a lot of errors in the language and it was just too fake. Finally the company personnell emails me the payment description payable via MoneyGram ( haaa ! point one of a fraud case ). But nevermind,i wanted to see how far this goes. In fact,i deal with a few legit computer peripheral companies in Hong Kong and China exporting component/peripherals to trans-continental cities like Moscow and Madrid. Those companies have a very professional approach in their communications be it written or spoken. This is to say that i have some knowledge how to out run fraudsters.

Ok so back to our story, The payment receiver was supposed to be somebody in UK named Alex Hamilton .
Immediately i started to google that name in many variations of phrases (this is what i do everytime i deal with a new person).
Many attempts of search but nothing was found...finally at one point when i entered "Alex Hamilton iphone scam" i found a page that proved my suspicions absolutely right . it claimed that this person named Alex Hamilton is a nigerian and a big time fraudster who claims to be selling iphones and has a company in texas ! On the other hand, i was told was he is based in UK.

Here's the page : http://www.alibaba.com/buyofferdetail/1004...Scam_Alert.html

Looks like this fellow has swiped off Alibaba.com as well. I pity the genuine traders on that site (if there are any left).
While browsing for more evidence i ended up here on lowyat.net which i'm a member too and i felt that it's utmost necessary for me to expose this truth to my fellow lowyatters


So folks,there you have it a real story deciphers. We all want the latest tech gadgets and if offered for a lower price then it's a jackpot but reality doesn't permit such a thing. Instead of being blinded by the outrageously low prices and then losing our money,might as well wait and save up more cash and most importantly buy such gadgets in a face-to-face situations from an authorized retail store. It's a dog-eat-dog world out there and for money people will do anything under the sun.

For those of you who want the email correspondence between me and that fraudster,can pm me. Expose yourself to the tactics and improfessionality used by the fraudsters.


Cheers to you all !!

(btw,who can mod my case and sleeve my psu ? haven't found anybody yet,damn it ! )

this should be pinnned lolxxxxxx

Rm811? in ur dream man.. or u want Hiphone instead?? heh

Wow roycearden..... Thats a lot of typing dude!!! Thanks a lot for d info...

nah... dun wanna think about it already...
RM811 ke... RM909 ke.. RM1500 ke... RM2500 ke...

i just stay and watch...

and laughed to the scammed one *LoL*

Was in pyramid IT Center last nite..saw an iphone on display..when asked i was told its Hiphone hehe i was laughing..then i was approached for 3G iPhone for RM4,000 ++ i told the seller nah its ok..i can get it for RM3k then all the seller wanna buy from me..sigh GG la like that then i told them im not a seller and its friends helping out
buying from abroad..fully "unlocked"..and they were like eh? unlocked? then i knew that they dont hv a clue bout iphone or the new gen..sigh..straight away i said sorry i got to go..then chow..hiya..some sellers dont even know how iphone is sold..sigh

a lot of ppl i dunno y are still in da dark even when its the 1st gen..what more the 2nd gen...

No offence here but come offend...most and i repeat...most...and not all...handphone sellers like to talk cock to their potential customers about iPhone...they thought that their customers are totally dumba** and have no idea what is an iPhone before surveying for price...in the end...they make a fool out of themselves...who's laughing in the end? not the seller but the potential customers...

@ Corvinux

Yeah... they maybe not a con seller... but yes, some of them are noob in d item that they intended to sell. whatever item it is.. all they want is a trade with profits... where they the key words was like, "Haiyah, ini malang susa mau tapat oh... ata tuit pun tata bole tapat munya".... Hey, no offence to d chinese ok... i myself talk similar to tat *LoL*

My pleasure ! everybody out there needs to know the actual scam tactics because we mostly hear a word or two and still have a little bit of hope that the stories might be made up or so. The fact is they're more fraudsters than genuine retailers.

Added on July 31, 2008, 1:03 pm5 points for you antnine ! You're true about most of these electronics retailers. it happens the same for computer peripherals as well.
The best part is when they see you know something extra or a little bit technical,then they're blur and wonder how come a normal customer knows so much.....forgetting that normal customers are educated too.

I am not surprise with that. There is one seller in Mines Shopping Fair, asking what phone i did used before (when i am planning to buy a new phone from his shop) around 2 month back.. i told that i am using Sharp 903sh.. then he seems like shocked.. how much do u sold? i told i sold it for rm900.. then he tell me.. wah, u should sell to me loh.. sooooo cheap he say.. i can even buy from u at 1.2k. I just lol (if u know and alert for 903sh value here in Garage Sales). hehe

Added on July 31, 2008, 1:30 pmbut u also need to know that.. most of their customers is "dumb" as u said.. not everyone out there know what we knew here. I bet if everyone out there know the same what we know.. some of handphone shop will gulung tikar..

This goes to show that good things dont come cheap, and when they do, they are always too good to be true. You can only go so much for being thrifty, before you become the target for these characters.

You get what you pay for.

OT:string... how much is v-moda vibe duo if were to buy oversea? any lobang?

so is it possible to get iphone 3g 8 gig fro ebay for only 205 usd?
wad is the possible way to buy cheapest iphone in malaysia?

no lubang yet. Safest method is to purchase in Australia or New Zealand.

please remember, as of now (1 Aug 2008) iPhone 3G can't be unlocked yet. This means locked sets (from USA for example) cannot be used here

please please don't get scammed. Even though I work for an Apple reseller, I can't help you.

but i saw a post from lowyat net got ppl said iphone from nz are all unlocked is it true?

you need to paid for the unlock too..

my iPhone 3G is from NZ, fully unlocked, RM2500...
