So I was considering selling my Note and purchasing the new Google tablet for my wife and saving any left over money towards the Note 2. I was in no hurry to sell and was more or less just testing the waters. Anyway, I posted it on Craigslist because I wanted to sell it locally and wanted to deal with someone in person to avoid any hassle or scams.
I receive a text this morning from someone wanting to purchase my phone. The beauty of it is they offer me $100 more than I am asking and want me to ship the phone to their pastor who is doing missionary work in Nigeria. Really?
I looked up the phone number they texted me from and it is a North Carolina area code, so I am not sure what is going on here. Why not ship it yourself, etc.....
I think I am going to have a little fun with this person.
I will take suggestions on possible questions to ask this person or ideas to have fun with them
Yeah that happens to me ALL the time and it's always the SAME story. Makes me very hesitant to post on craigslist. These guys are so easy to spot that it's irritating. Anyway, good luck trying to sell your Note!
You're selling, right? Why do you care if he is a scammer or not? Just ship the phone wherever he wants once you receive the money.
is it this guy ???

Because they almost always insist on paying via paypal...and then they reverse the payment when the item has been sent....or they send fake paypal invoices/receipts...

It reminds me of all the emails I get from the Nigeria or Kenya guys about how they inherited ten million dollars and I will get 2 million if I help them by putting it in my account in the US because of this and that. I get one of those every so often in my gmail and it is quite funny because they are so serious. Sometimes I will reply and they will actually reply and the funny part is I saw on the news that some people actually fall for this **** and lose their life savings. I can not believe people actually do this. To think someone would actually email someone their bank account info or send them a check or something is insane
If you want to have a good laugh, then take a look at this: http://www.419eater.com/html/john_boko.htm

NEVER ship to Nigeria! It's always a scam. Either the paypal mentioned or false money orders.

Thats the point, they will ask you to send the phone ebcuase he needs it urgently and they will transfer the money as well
you send the phone, they delay and delay and you never see your phone or money again
yeah ! these people in nigeria live like kings !
a 3rd world country with people wearing trees as clothing, yet they have a $400 smartphone!
If he's in such a rush for a phone, go buy a crappy £15 PAYG phone !
Email him back and say thank you for your interest.
In order to expedite your order please send the money via western union

Only someone stupid will ship a product before receiving the payment.
I always get the ones that have bunch crap to trade, I swear the stuff must have come from their neighbor's trash on moving day. When I was selling a MacBook Air, some guy claimed to be pastor and wanted make payments. I said "Sure, one payment of $799 and a second payment of $1."
I had one like that except they offer 200 dollars more and made a fake paypal unique transaction id in a email. Ship first in order to recieve your money yeah right lol

I am really getting tempted to try this site...
Any one used this before and your opinion please? They are not accepting PayPal and credit cards i guess!
MOD EDIT: Link Removed as scame.
HUGE SCAM. If it is too good to be true, then IT IS. They only accept money gram and western union which is the easiest way to get scammed because there is no way to track your payment and there is no way to get your money back. These prices are way tooooo low. Anyone with cash in hand would buy out there whole inventory and just flip it. Stay away beware

There are lots of sites like this out there. They don't accept Paypal and credit cards because you can dispute those payments. There's no way to get your money back through services such as Western Union. Stay far far away from sites like these.

I ordered a Galaxy Note GT-N7000 (i9220) from 1saleaday.com on 03/15/12, and finally received the shipment yesterday (03/28/12). When I opened the shipping container, I discovered an unsealed Galaxy Note box (These were sold as BNIB) that contained all of the accessories, but no Galaxy Note. I have been in constant contact with them the last two days, at which point they tried to persuade me into purchasing today's deal on the Note, at which point they would refund my money and cancel my previous order. Unwilling to do this, because I am already out $584, and was not prepared to throw good money after bad to a company that does not even have a customer service phone number, I was finally informed at the end of their business day today (4:30 PM EDT) that I would NOT be receiving a refund, after all. You see, apparently I am not alone in this, and rather than them take care of the customers who have already tied money up in their shady venture, they now want to do an "investigation" into how widespread this may be. I signed a sworn affidavit attesting to the fact that I did not receive the phone, just the box and accessories, yet they still refuse to refund my money or send me the phone. I do not believe they do this to everyone, but I think they selectively choose random customers here and there when they think they can get away with committing fraud. So, consider this a heads up that doing business with these losers can leave you without the item you paid for or the money you used to pay for it.
I have bought quite a number of items from 1Saleaday and received everything in order including a BNIB HTC View 4G. Just file a dispute or charge back from your Credit Card. Hope you get your money/phone asap.
I have gotten a tentative refund from my credit card company, but this could easily devolve into a "he said, she said" mess, which I want to avoid. What I do not want to avoid is publicly defecating on their business name, which I am in the process of doing across the internet.
I bought a motorola Atrix lapdock from them a couple of week ago. Finally got it 3 and1/2 Weeks later. It was a b#$&h trying to communicate with them. It was only $55 but I was that close to calling my credit card company and filling a claim to get my money back. that's the first and last time I'm buying anything from 1 sale. Might be a good idea to call your credit card up and see what your options are.

Exactly. I'm no fan of 1Sale either, but they can't just issue such a large refund immediately. If I were in charge, I'd want to investigate this claim as well.
Their internal investigation is of no consequence to me. They asked me to just sign an affidavit so they could issue the refund, I did so, and the minute I told them I was not interested in buying today's special, they changed their tune. Either state that I am getting it, dependent on some conditions, or tell me they need to look into the matter further.

+1 for sure, I always set up my tripod and camera before I open the package, even if I'm super excited to get it. I've gotten a box of CD's and a few rocks instead of an XBOX on Ebay. I'll never make that mistake again.
I had an interesting experience with them as well when I was in the market for a 2nd computer to do some dev work on. Received the computer that I purchased from them and it had a bad power supply. Argued with them and it took 3 weeks after receiving the computer for them to issue me an RA and return shipping label, then another 3 weeks to get my refund.
I ordered 3 htc Evo views from them all came flawless. Also ordered 32gb cards a bunch of other things from then with no issues. Hope everything works out in your favor...

Thank God !
Well I got my GNEX today !
And its all good.
but while packing the rest of the stuff back in the box, i thought of

But their packaging department people probably trying to get away

Any way, I thank God that so far I have bought a lot of stuff from

if u go for all of them, sure the seller might go down till 60$ or so
and u help everyone here get a cheap gsm bb, at a price lower than the market price, but save something for yourself as well...
my thanks meter deserves to be running lol...
see, if u get these... 30 @ 60$.. that is 1800$...
and even if u sell each at 80$(plus shipping & fees) which is amazing price for this device, u make 30x80$=2400$...
u can keep 3 of these, so u make about 400$ atleast...
help many people get a bb gsm... coz people refrain from selling it for anything lower than 100$...
if permitted, u can have people sort of book a device from u... and then u make a special thread for it to keep things transparent
also, plz confirm...the pic shows 34 devices... try offering him like 1800 for the lot he would probably want 2000...
and u might have them for 1900
Make sure they all work too lol

Ok so I ordered the Nexus 4 about two weeks ago. I have been so excited to get it and I literally just got it about an hour ago. Now something crazy has happened. About 30 mins after UPS dropped off my phone UPS came back with another package. The package looked exactly the same as the first package he dropped off and I was like WTF??
I opened the box and behold it was another Nexus 4. At this point I am all like WTF google better not have charged me twice. I ran to my computer and checked my bank account. They only charged me for one phone. I went to the google play store to check my transaction history and it also said that I only purchased one. I opened the package and looked at the invoice. Both packing slips have the same order number on them. I think Google actually messed up and sent me two Nexus 4s for the price of one.
Has this happened to anyone else? Should I be worried? Should I do the honest thing and send it back or just accept this as a Christmas Gift from Google? I would love to give this second phone to my sister for Christmas. What do you guys think?

You're LEGALLY entitled to keep it since Google shipped it to you.

Yes. If they charged you for one phone and mistakenly sent you two it's theft. I would contact them and let then know if I was you. They may give you some sort of a deal for being an honest person... Even if they don't, you can offer to pay for it and won't have to wait for shipping. Just my 2 cents

It certainly is theft. You are in possession of property that you didn't pay for and was clearly shipped to you in error. nbebbe42 is correct, contact Google and have it returned... just make sure they pay for the shipping.
There's an FTC rule that essentially deems all unrequested merchandise a gift and therefore an individual or company who ships something to someone by mistake has no recourse in recovering said merchandise.
Like I said, legally right, ethically wrong.
I was all ready to tell you to keep it but after reading these posts I thought how I would feel and I've always returned stuff that wasn't mine. I certainly wouldn't think of it as stealing though, I guess you just have to decide.
What if google charged you for 2 nexus and you only get one/? Would you call google theft??? You would be crying abd calling thrm thefts... Do the right thing and phone them

Legally speaking you are a %100 to do with it what you will, AS long as your name is on both shipping receipts. Ethically speaking by returning it you would put people through the hassle of getting it shipped back putting it back in the system and also risk the employment of whoever made the error.
If you think about it the amount of man hours to deal with these slip ups usually out cost the actual product being returned. I'd say make someone you love have an even better Christmas/Hanukkah or whatever you celebrate

You should do the right thing and call Google about it. See if they hook you up, give you a nice discount or something. At the end of day if you don't call you will be a thief. You should also consider giving it to a Dev at retail if Google will you let keep it. Development is slow.
I voided my warranty.
I wouldn't call it stealing. If you found the phone on the street and kept it is that stealing?
Someone lost it and you happen to stumble upon by accident.
Now you could turn the phone in to the authorities like a good man and maybe Santa will have something bigger in store for you this Christmas.
Or you could keep it like any normal person would do.
If you keep it however, they could trace it back to you (your signature receiving the order)
Likely scenario, someone messed up the order and the phone was sent to you. Whoever was supposed to receive the phone will not receive it, and will file a "lost/stolen" with Google and they will ship another one to them as an apology.
It isn't stealing because you didn't take it, it shipped to you

Just like being given extra $50 change at the register isn't stealing? Legally it may not be stealing but ethically it wrong and stealing. Some of us answer to the Big G, not Google, and don't have a disposable conscience as some of the logic being thrown around is implying.

Legally, anything that is shipped to your home is yours to keep. This is in order to prevent companies from shipping you merchandise that you never asked for, then hounding you for the money.

Your most likely right but @supremekizzle did the right thing.
legally they can't do anything. shipping something to someone is concidered a gift if you didn't authorize the purchase.

I think you are an awesome person for emailing them to let them know about the mistake.
Kudos to you.

Yeah, but in all likelyhood if I would've kept it they would've found out anyway. The funny thing is, it originally was shipped with UPS shurepost which I upgragged to UPS ground. The second one I got was also upgrated automatically. So I wonder if they shipped it out using the exact same shipping label. Maybe they would've never found out after all. But it'd be a ****ty thing for me to do to keep it

My friend once got two LCD televisions, but ordered only one.
H e never said a word about it to the company where he ordered those. He still got them and never heard anything from the company.

We got once two cupboards... and at this time it was legal to keep them (in Germany) without informing the seller. Only when they ask I have to say that I got two. When I remember correctly then after 2 year they both were mine (before I was only nicely to store the second one
Good job OP.
Man screw that. I wouldnt have said a word... Karma doesnt affect business deals, only when you screw over a person.
I had a similiar issue with a Nexus 10. I had to exchange it so Google sent me an RMA, i sent it back and they said they never got it yet they sent me a new one when they were in stock.
Then refunded my money. So in essence, I got free Nexus 10 Tablet form Google.
The same people that hoard our data and then sell it without our knowledge or TRUE consent (yeah, Samsung does it too!) dont deserve the same rights that the shop keep down the street from me deserves.
OP you wasted your time emailing. They gifted you a tablet. Were were you when I was struggling for donations to buy mine? lol

I'm not a huge believer in karma. At all, actually. I was worried more about them coming back at me asking for the money to pay for it months later. Maybe they would've never found out, maybe not. I will never know for sure now...

legally they can't do anything. shipping something to someone is concidered a gift if you didn't authorize the purchase.
reap/sow/comes around crap... things don't come ariund they just keep going. and whose to say what's just happened isn't a reaping.

I'm not sure that's true. Zavvi sent out PS Vita's by accident to customers and made a legal case out of it. AFAIK, they were actually backed up by UK law. That said, I'm sure it's entirely a country dependant thing.
Well letting them know saves you from worrying I guess.

Have you ever had the bank put a "gift" in your account? And did they just smile when you later found they had rescinded that gift? Lol.
