One time I went on Facebook marketplace and searched up “iMac”. Probably about 50 spam listings showed up listing nice iMacs like the m1 iMac for $100. The link in the description would take you to a website to try and steal credit card information. The person had multiple facebook profiles doing the exact same thing and I reported them all.

I learned my lesson buying a scam. If the product is in a sealed box, then a seller won't let you open it without handing over the money, so can't check it out, especially to run it. Locally here, the Apple store staff are selling empty boxes from products to the scammers, who then put stolen goods in a real apple box, and then seal it so you can't check.

[@AC-lt5ro]

Wow 😯 didn’t know about the empty boxes

[@joh.9531]

@@AC-lt5ro thanks for noticing. It was the police (Vancouver, CA) who told me about Apple store employees selling bundles of perfect empty Apple boxes, in the situation where Apple store customers didn't want to take home the box. I'm guessing at prices, but I can imagine a perfect Apple box being worth maybe $40 to a scammer, so 25 boxes would be $1000 to the crooked employee. I asked the police why didn't they act, since every box has a serial #. They said that neither the police nor Apple care, so no point. The police said they discovered criminals having little factories for stuffing the boxes with stolen stuff. And I learned the lesson that everyone in this post should know - why would anybody sell a brand new Apple product sealed in a box? There are vanishingly few legit reasons. I'll never buy other than directly from Apple, and also not Apple refurbished, for similar reasons. I learned my lesson on the refurb route also.

[@WildlifeWächter]

First flaw is with the coverage… the warranty starts when you connect your phone with he AirPods max. And the warranty with this serial number was expired. How can the warranty be expired when the AirPods are still sealed? It has nothing to do with the purchase date. First BIG red flag.

[@robotguitar6938]

Definitely not correct.

[@dailychillvibe6012]

not exactly. warranty start after the customer paid for the product. Apple or any other retail store are required to enter the serial number on the POS so they can keep track the limited warrant for Apple items. it does not matter you are buying for someone else or yourself and the person who own the headphone didn't open it. the warranty clock is still counting down.

Little tip, there’s no reason to sell a sealed apple product, Apple will accept a refund even after a month after purchase, as long as it’s sealed and preferably you have the receipt they will have no issues, so if someone’s selling a sealed product let them know, if they don’t want to do so it’s most likely a scam

[@Entertainment-]

They might have a genuine product to sell that was obtained fraudulently, for example using stolen credit cards. You could get a cheap Apple product this way albeit it’s morally questionable.

Some things to look out for when buying a pair: on the fakes, on the back of the box it will say 2023 which is supposed to be 2020, the text on the stickers on the bottom of box(where it says the serial number) it’s supposed to be (S) Serial, on the fakes it says (S)Serial. As for the headphones themselves, the fakes are missing the pinholes to detach the headband from the earcups, you can find these in the earcup when you remove the padding. I’ve done extensive research before I bought a pair myself and managed to get a real pair for a good price while looking out for these things.

One of the easiest ways to tell is looking at the plastic film on the outside, and how it comes together.

Fakes will usually have a much messier join, that isn’t centred and isn’t always flush with the rest of the film!

I bought some from eBay and fortunately eBay guaranteed that what I bought was what was advertised so when I got the Apple AirPod maxes and I noticed that they did not have the hole for the adjustment of the headband. I called the guy on it and sent him photos and said I’m gonna report you to eBay even though he didn’t accept returns all of a sudden within four minutes he accepted returns and I returned the AirPod maxes fake and got my money back.

The AirPods pros (not max) are almost impossible to tell if they’re fake just by looking at them and handling them. We took one that didn’t sound right to an Apple service provider and they told us there were hundreds of repair requests for that particular serial number. I’m not sure if you could get an Apple Store to tell you the same thing, but that would be a way of determining if it’s fake. The serial number in your video undoubtedly has service requests made on it even though it’s unopened.

The best way to know if something is original is by checking if the firmware version of the product match with the last version on Apple’s website (after connect to the phone, of course). Replicas can’t update. Another tip is, (in Brazil) Apple’s products only active the limited warranty after the first connetion. So if you have a never opened box, it can’t have started the warranty time

[@ChidoChilango]

Another huge tell from the pictures he sent you is how crooked the plastic wrapping is. A lot of people don't realize this but although Apple doesn't do plastic wrap anymore, devices that still do have a straight and perfect wrap. Original Apple devices have extremely meticulous plastic wrap, with clean flat even edges and the lines where the plastic meets and closes is straight and even. It's so easy to tell on fakes because their plastic wrapping is horrible and has crumples everywhere.

[@bluehonour02]

My advise if you buy new sealed phone/headphone: never buy items with warranty already running. If these headphones are indeed new, the Apple website won't show info abaout warranty or purchase date until activation. Scammers often sale fake items with stolen original serial numbers (that will be most probbaly already activated).

the only other thing where you have so many fakes is in fashion. this just shows that apple is just a fashion brand which is more focused on exclusivity than user friendliness
