Ajay Rajawat, the man, published photographs and a video on X to back up his accusations, stating that Flipkart had refused to replace his cellphone.
¡°I ordered an iPhone 15 from Flipkart on January 13, and I got it on January 15, but Flipkart has committed fraud; they delivered a defective iPhone 15, and the box packaging was also fake. Now they are not replacing it,¡± wrote X user Ajay Rajawat while sharing two pictures and a video on the microblogging platform.
What did he receive?
The message on iPhone says the battery is not genuine | Image: X
One of the images displays the iPhone with the phrase, "Unable to establish whether your iPhone battery is a genuine Apple part. This could be because the part is not genuine, does not function properly, or the installation is complete."
Another image shows the iPhone displaying the 'Battery Health & Charging' screen, which reads, "Unable to verify this iPhone has a genuine Apple battery." There is no health information available for this battery.
When did he buy the iPhone?
The man explained in another tweet, ¡°I ordered an iPhone 15 on Flipkart during the Republic Day Sale, and today I got it. But it is not charging, and it is showing that the battery is not genuine. What could be the solution for this? Is this a fraud by Flipkart?¡±
Previously, an Amazon buyer received a delivery containing Colgate toothpaste rather than the noise-cancelling Sony headphones he bought.
The man posted the unpacking video on X and tagged Amazon to bring the matter to their attention. The company apologised for the delivery mix-up and assured him that his complaint would be addressed as soon as possible.
