Interesting thing this time is that you can pay by Paypal, rather than only direct deposit…
Unsure if the PayPal payment would actually work. If it does, perhaps the scammer has a couple of ways to bypass Buyer Protection? Envelope sent to buyers postcode etc?
put through an order and it goes to paypal…

But how far did you go?
I went as far as seeing "My Smart Phone Words Pty Ltd" as the recipient - but not as far as seeing the PayPal account details (eMail address).
I have made a report to PayPal already. If you got as far as seeing their PayPal account detail(s) please let me know.
"3. Warranty will be treated as void if any:
a. The original shipping invoice is lost or amended."
i'm sure the accc would have something to say about that
3 month warranty. other retailers offer better warranty periods.

As the site is using shopify.com - and their terms prohibit illegal activity, I have made a report to them of illegal activity.
The web site displays these bank details:-
Bank: Members Equity
Account Name: MySmartPhones
Account BSB: 944300
Account Number: 014637448Interesting ? Go to their web site then google street view their so called stock location :):):):)
self-storage?

It is a 'scam site' - same as all the others detailed here ->
www.ozbargain.com.au/node/117298Nothing is 'real' or traceable. Other than the bank account, that is real - but can't be traced to a real person.

The whole site has been stolen from various legitimate sites. Harvey Norman for example.
Hi there A3Australia,
My mother decided to purchase two mobile phones from this website last Wednesday night and we only figured out today, mostly from your forum, that this is a scam. Would you be able to give me advice on what steps to take as she is incredibly worried. Thanks
Did she pay through Paypal?
Call PayPal. I informed PayPal about the scam site, and that their service was being used for payments.
EDIT:
I see that they have removed PayPal and only have
Account Name: SmartPhones Pty Ltd
Account BSB: 944300
Account number: 014637448As the payment.
CALL YOUR BANK AND THE MEMBERS EQUITY BANK NOW!
INSIST ON SPEAKING WITH THEIR FRAUD DEPARTMENTS/SECTIONS.Report the fraud and insist on a reversal.
Read this earlier thread for more information.

I find it very difficult to understand how the site and the bank account can still exist.
