iphone update part 4

April 23, 2008

Well - I know its been a while but I’ve been hoping for a better outcome that what has happened.

I won an ebay iPhone auction from a chap in Melbourne - paid him the money $530) and he promised it would be sent registered and insured. He sent me a scanned copy of the Australia Post receipt (which shows it was sent standard post - not registered) and that was the last I heard.

No Iphone - Not able to get in contact with the sender - basically I have sent him $530 (through bank transfer) and got nothing back - in short I have been ripped off.

I’ve logged a dispute with paypal and will be lodging a formal police report when the 10 days dispute period is up - but I doubt I will ever see my money again.

Obviously I’m pissed off but I cant understand why they should be able to catch the guy. Cant they follow the money trail (I have the BSB/Account number where it was transfered) - cant they track the person through that ?

Anyway - I’ll probably try again for another iphone through www.priceusa.com.au which looks legit. I might pay via credit card this time just in case.

Of course this means my iphone will end up costing me over $1000 since I’ve been ripped off. And Apple will probably release a new one 1 week after I get it
