Which bit?
I was born in Nigeria in 1958 and spent a lot of time there up until 1979.
Nigeria's first language is English followed by all the native ones (I never came across a Nigerian who couldn't speak English).
When Nigerians scam they try to use clever words but it fails on most.
The words on Ebay are by somebody with poor English.
 
It's very obviously not a 3GS - the fact that it is not running OS 3.0 is a dead giveaway. But since I own a 3GS and know exactly what to look for, I'd spot that. Others wouldn't. Despite the fact that its been corrected at the bottom, someone is going to get suckered in and buy that as a 3GS.

Scam or not, that's cause for a complaint right there.

Fact is however, that anyone who is in any way savvy should have alarm bells ringing. All of the feedback is from buying items, not selling. Everyone has to start somewhere, but jumping straight in with a £305 item should be viewed with suspicion IMO.

PS - If the rest of the description is accurate, it would also have to be jailbroken and unlocked. Not sure what eBay's policy on those would be.

What, bidding for this has just hit £400 with 17mins left, for a used 2nd hand 'possibly wealth distributed' Iphone 3G ?
The world has indeed gone crazy

I really hope that's someone on here scamming the scammer....!

I sold an Amiga 1200 on ebay, ended up getting a good price for it, but the first auction ended at £250 odd quid and I had to re-list it due to scammers... would love to play them at their own game!
 
New eBayer, zero feedback, and bidding on twelve different mobile phones (with a PSP and a pair of shoes thrown in for good measure). I don't think so.
 
Schill bidding.

Why else would you pay £908? That auction is so badly worded you'd have to be mentally insane.
