dont buy stolen goods! beware!

im sure most of our community isnt so stupid but please ladies and gents be cautious of what you are buying on the internet, especially seeing recent events.... rioting, street robbing and looting...

everyone wants a cheap phone! but if its very new or expensive and has no box nor proof of ownership do you really want to part with a few hundred pounds to find out your bargain priced phone does not work in a few days/ weeks/ months? and will then only be any good outside of the uk....

i just bought an i phone 3gs...... and no i wasnt scammed i was carefull, came with original box and accessorys and i tried calling and texting and using the net before buying it

but i nearly got scammed on one the guys phone was on and of apparently swapping sim cards! hmmmmm dodge! didnt get that one!lol

Nope, sorry, didn't understand the last sentence.

So OP, if I have got this right you are saying don't buy one of these phones as it might not work, not because you would be buying stolen goods?

[PeckhamRose]

Yeah, that's what I thought. So are you going to get a new one from somewhere?

I was referring to things in general but phones are the easiest things to steal and sell... So if they don't come with boxes beware...
