Real or a scam???
as-seen-on-tv-bargains.webasyst.net
I was looking for a iphone 3gs for my other half and found this web site selling a unlocked 16gb iphone 3gs at £150. The only method of payment which they will except is bank transfer, they had an option for Google checkout and I tried buying a phone using this method, a few hours later I received an email from Google say my money had been refunded.
They contacted me saying they don’t except this method any more i i must pay by bank transfer, i thought this was a little strange and unsafe.
It would be great if i could get some opinions on this site.

Never ever pay by something online with a bank transfer, you have no way of getting your money back, and no rights whatsoever.
My friend was cought out with this scam, he even contacted the police and they couldn't do anything.0 -
