Customer Alleges He Got 'Fake' iPhone 15 From Amazon
Shopping online can be fun, convenient, and most of the time less expensive than buying from physical stores. But online shopping can also be tricky as unscrupulous elements may scam customers by selling fake or lower quality products, despite the promises made by the e-commerce site about the authenticity of the items sold on their platforms.
Fake iPhone 15
An Amazon customer was in for a rude shock after he received a fake iPhone 15.
"Waah @amazonIN delivered a Fake iPhone 15. Seller is Appario. Tagged with 'Amazon choice.' No cable in the box. Total Dabba. Has anyone faced a similar issue?" a popular social media user, who goes by ¡°Gabbar Singh¡± said.
When asked by another X user, Gabbar Singh said that he had purchased the iPhone 15 for his wife.
Another X user wondered why there was a screen guard on the fake iPhone, to which he replied that it came pre-installed.?
Yet another X user pointed out that the low-quality screen guard should have been a red flag.
What Amazon said
Responding to Gabbar Singh's post, an Amazon India representative informed him that their team get back to him with a resolution via email.
While the particular complaint might have been resolved by Amazon, many others also shared similar experiences while shopping online.
