I was looking around for a cheap Samsung Galaxy S3 for a rather cheap price. I found one for 300 by this person and was instantly ecstatic. I was contacted by 'Jessica' about the phone still being available and what not. I said I was still very interested along with asking what payment did they prefer. I said Paypal or Google checkout but they suggested some site called Interparcel. Me being me, I looked it up myself, instead of just going on the link she sent me, to see if this was trust worthy. At first I saw stuff about the Australia and it was relatively positive but low and behold, I see all these things concerning this person! I read them and it was basically word for word of what I was going through. The only difference was the product. Here is how the initial email went:
Hi, I am getting back to you regarding the Samsung GALAXY S3 from Craigslist
My name is Jessica and I am now in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
The phone is still available and I hope you are still interested.
I am selling the phone for $300 US. I have attached some pics with it to this email.
Included in the $300 price is everything that came with the phone and also the warranty papers.
I tried to be as thorough as I could with the presentation so you can have all the info if you decide to go ahead and buy it. So what do you think? Do you want my S3?
Thanks,
Jessica
If you get anything like that, LOOK OUT. It is a SCAM.
