GAF Wii scam in full force (AKA steal yo money)
« on: July 24, 2008, 03:24:03 AM »
I notice on Wii threads on GAF, there's a banner advertising this site (also I noticed a 360 one too.)

The website is:

http://www.cheapestwii.com

It's advertising selling "refurbished" Wii's for a whopping $20, with free shipping. Click on their FAQ's and it explains, most systems only have a scratch on them! Wow, what a deal!

The order page looks like something put together off an old geocities site, and as put in info, it will tell you "thankyou!" in some shitty text after each box.

Hey, maybe its not a scam, and you'll be lucky and just get a Chinese "Vii" knockoff system, instead of nothing and a couple thousand dollars of charges on your credit card "mysteriously" there a couple days later. I find it funny GAF goes to such links to put this kind of advertisement on their site, which is a completely obvious scam.

Don't click on banners, it only encourages them!

I bet its a phantom site that sends the money right to evillore's bank account. I hear the guy already sits on his ass and just lives off GAF's ad revenue. I need to use Firefox and Adblock 24/7.

There's a random Wii thread, you can see the banner for yourself. It also has an odd hand trying to get the Wiimote's nipples hard it looks like.
