Woman pays $100 for an iPhone 6, gets a box full of potatoes instead

If you’ve heard about people receiving packages of stones in ordered items then you will not be surprised to hear about the story of how a woman was conned into buying an iPhone 6 for $100 but receiving potatoes in the box instead.

A woman in Milwaukee managed to spot a truck that was selling a range of gadgets and she managed to spot an iPhone 6 in those pile of items. The guy driving the truck agreed to sell the iPhone 6 for $100, which the woman agreed and also checked each and everything on the spot to make sure that she was not being conned.

Unfortunately, things are not what they seem to be and the woman found out the hard way when she reached home. This is what she had to say when she found out she was scammed.

“They have everything you could name: clothes, shoes, watches, purse, bundles of hair, DVDs, CDs – everything – phones, laptops. So I ask the guy about the iPhone 6 and he’s like, ‘Ah yeah, today, I will give it to you for $100.’ He hands me an iPhone 6, I’m playing with it, turning it around, checking it. I ask him to call the phone and he showed me the number and I’m like, ‘Cool, it’s legit. It’s ringing. It’s working. I want it.’

Right? Wrong. He turns around and puts the phone in the box with a piece of paper, he hands it to me, I hand him the money, I get in my car and drive home. I sit at my kitchen table about to play with the phone… The box is heavy, and I get home, and this n****r sold me a box of potatoes!”

What the heck am I supposed to do with this? I am so hurt right now imma have to go to jail, imma go outside and imma find these old n*****s. What am I supposed to do with – oh you almost made me cuss.”

It has not been confirmed if the woman was able to locate the truck driver again but it gives a valuable lesson that you’re supposed to double check your items before you pay otherwise you could become a victim like her.
