Went searching for ipod nanos, and came across this website which sold cheap models - a pretty good incentive, and it looked all above board -i. E Apple logo, verisafe. So I registered and purchased one for £89. Had the usual email confirmation order. The next morning, I received a call from the bank stating that a company had been trying to access my account for an amount for £92. I had my card cancelled, and I think thankfully in time, as I had received a further two (dodgy) emails alledgedly from the Ipodnanosales company - both written in chinese. There was one line of badly translated english in both emails stating that my payment was successful, and then it was unsuccessful... presumably because my card had been stopped. There was also no way of contacting ipodnanosales to query anything. All very suspicious, and upon googling other comments and forums, looks liked I've been well and truly scammed. STAY AWAY FROM THIS WEBSITE AT ALL COSTS
My son found this site for me, and i can't blame him, as i should of done what i was going to do, check it out, but in my haste i forgot, spent 59 pound, on debit card, and today found out it a con, found it hard to get things for him as money tight on my own, im trying to see if my bank can help, fingers cross, keep away, apple should do some think abourt it as it looked like one of there sites, im gutted now, as got to find money to reeplace what lost,
Beware this is a company that sells fake ipods really bad ones at that unable to connect to itunes and plenty more problems DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY
I think that these people are thieves, I lost £69.99 to them and this comes off what I will be able to afford for my 9yr old daughter for her christmas this year. I'm a single mum, shes my only daughter and I work 40hrs a week to pay the rent myself and bills. No state handouts and I believed this site to be apple authenticated. Why arnt apple or google doing something about this?
This & another similarly named and visually almost identical is a scam site. It offers I-pod Nano 5s at prices ranging from £59 to £89. I paid £79 for a 16GB Nano on 4.10; at first all looked OK but when I received a notification from Barclaycard that my payment had been entered as 831.68CNY (Chinese Yuan), & merchant URL was www.topsmerchant.com & payment method quoted as Ecpss Payment Gateway (Google search = fraudulent) I realised I had been scammed! I have had to block my only credit card with all the attendent ramifications. A NIGHTMARE -DON'T GO NEAR THIS SITE! Its home page looks like it is an Apple site with good graphics.
