There is no easy gain says an old saying, and these days we witnessed that this phrase never gets old. A woman from the US learned her lesson the hard way, when a stranger approached her on Texas gas station and offered her unbelievably cheap laptops and a
Apple iPad4. At the moment the woman was convinced that she is making the “deal of the century” by paying 200 $ for a 800$ dollar product (this is the regular price of an Apple iPad 4 in America). [caption id="attachment_3062" align="aligncenter" width="300"] At first, the whole deal seemed legit..[/caption] American Jalonta Freeman was imagining how she bought an incredibly cheap gift and surprise her family for the upcoming holidays. This unbelievable price should “raise the red flag” in her head, but instead she paid the 200$ this stranger who set in his car and drove off after the “successful trade”. The happiness of the unfortunate customer didn’t last for long. When she opened her “Apple iPad 4” the back of the device looked legit with the big convincing Apple logo, but the front of the tablet was covered with all kind of stickers and labels. When she finally took these stickers of, instead of the fantastic Retina display, she saw herself. The fantastic Apple iPad 4 was actually a mirror. Once she realized that she was scammed and cheated, she called the Police, TV stations but she couldn’t trace her Apple iPad 4 “supplier”. The Police couldn’t help her without the “salesman’s” license plate. This woman paid her scholarship and learned her lesson the hard way, and she was left with an unbelievable story and an empty wallet.

We at
www.mobileshop.euas an online store always advise our customers that if they are considering a purchase from a questionable person to be cautious. It can happen that a contingent of unbelievably cheap phones or tablets appear on the market, but the buyers should always be aware that a legal and regular device cannot be cheaper than 15-20% of the markets average. If someone attempts to sell you a device for the half of its markets price, this should be your first warning that something is suspicious about the seller or the merchandise. Do you have some similar “trading” experiences as this unfortunate American woman?
