seen a few ads like this on ebay where u are bidding on information on how to get these fones for daft prices like £20, £50 etc. need to know if anyone has done this or knows anything about this
most ads clearly state that its not a scam and payment mothods like nochex and paypal are used as examples of why it definately isnt a scam.
need help and opinions plz
thanks

imo its a scam and i wouldnt do it , you join a list and as new people join you go up the list till your at the top and get the phone for like £20 and it could takes months to go up this list and then you could get nothing.

makes sense, read another ad and it tells you that delivery 'can take a while'

it is a pyramid scheme:
if so many members(lets say the number is 10) join the site and pay £20 your name goes up i the list then u would get your fone
not a good idea though
i know sum1 who entered 1 of these (cuz he is thick!) and lost quite a few bob!
DONT DO IT

"You are bidding on information on how to get this phone for £20, this auction is not for the phone itself. We do not supply the phone to you. Thanks for looking, happy bidding! "
