iphone scam:-(

hi there,
i got scammed bad, .
DO NOT buy iphone from locanto, they have a huge scam with different e- mails, saying its in perth , once u pay yr money through western union for phone it goes down hill from there. DO NOT ever send money to NIGERIA !! this man says his name is bryan joseph from USA,he is the one i sent money to for phone, then to a man named charles olumide, in nigeria.....

Should you return- Please post the phone number that you were contacted with to help others. Names, address' & phone numbers always help.
The first clue in your scam was 'Western Union'. If you go to their web site it clearly states you are NEVER to use their service for an internet purchase, or to send money where you do not personally know the receiver of the money. You are sending CASH. Untraceable CASH.
Do a web search on 'Reading an email header', or read this article:

When you are contacted by email, this will help as well. It will show you how to read the IP address' in emails. Yes, they can be faked, but should they point to Asia, or Africa when you're dealing with Australia, it's a scam.

The Wall of Shame is for those who violate the rules of this site, not complaints about caller activity. There seem to be no phone calls involved here. The aliases cited are bound to change, while the signs of advance fee fraud are likely to remain constant.
