Beware: RCMP Alert on Counterfeit iPhone 15 Series Online Sales • Phones Canada Blog

Airdrie RCMP in Alberta is currently investigating a case of fraud involving fake iPhone 15 Pro devices being sold online as genuine products. The scammers have gone to great lengths to make these knockoff phones appear real, deceiving unsuspecting buyers in the process. Here’s what you need to know:

– A seller listed an iPhone 15 Pro Max for sale, sealed in a box with all the correct labeling, making it look like the real deal.
– The security numbers on the label were linked to legitimate iPhone products, adding to the phone’s authenticity.
– However, when buyers tried to use Apple features at home, the phone failed to function as expected. It was later confirmed by an Apple Store that it was a well-made fake.

The photos from the RCMP show that this fake iPhone 15 Pro Max is cleverly designed to mimic iOS 17 with an Android skin, fooling even casual buyers. It’s a stark reminder of the importance of being cautious when making online purchases.

“Airdrie RCMP urges the public to exercise extreme caution when buying online, as seemingly legitimate products can turn out to be fake,” stated the police. If you suspect you’ve fallen victim to a scam like this, don’t hesitate to contact Airdrie RCMP at 403-945-7267.

To avoid such fraudulent schemes, consider taking these precautions:

– Verify the authenticity of an iPhone by checking its serial number on Apple’s website.
– Meet potential sellers at an Apple Store where employees can confirm if the device is genuine.

Incidents like these highlight why some people opt for refurbished or open-boxed iPhones instead of risking their money on platforms like Facebook Marketplace or Kijiji. Stay vigilant and do your due diligence before making any online purchases. Your peace of mind is worth it.
