Scammed -Theft- Dubizzle
I was in need of cash urgently. So, I posted an ad to sell my new boxed packed iPhone 17 Pro Max. One guy with a verified account text me on Dubizzle and said he want to buy. I told him the price is final AED 5000, and he didn’t even bargain. I shared my room location with him on WhatsApp and he came in a White Camry wearing an Air Force uniform. I thought he is an official from Air Force. Moments later, this guy while checking my iPhone run away in his car. I couldn’t do anything at that moment. Thankfully there was a cctv camera which captured the incident. Went Police station and opened a case. They have the car number and currently CID in investigating the case. I hope they will catch him and return my hard earned money iPhone. I purchased it sometime ago in AED 5099.
I am sad but still have hope in the UAE Police and CID. This is first time, I tried to sell something on Dubizzle and I didn’t even lost a single phone in my whole life (29).
