This company claims they are selling the P900 for US$230 and they will ship it free of charge.

Does any know anything about this company or has dealt with them in the past? I am kind of skeptical.

************* quote from this company *********************
PHONES CAFE INCORPORATED

AGEGE,LAGOS.
NIGERIA

Thank's very much we do have the SonyEricsson P900, unlocked at just
$213:00usd,we will pay for the shipping fees.Do reply back now,thank's and God bless.

got a letter from nigeria saying i won 34 million euros in the international lottery but the financial transaction company messed up. To help sort out the problem they need me to wire over £1000 pounds so they can recetify the mistake and i will be reimbursed....it ends with saying due to the error potentially any one can get your cash so keep it quite untill we have recieved your money.


ok....shall i send a cheque or will cash do :lol

I have seen those too...

We got so many emails from Nigeria, its was pissing us off. So one of my computer whiz friends sat down with us one day and hacked into one of these idiots system, that was great!!! bet he/she was surprised when they got up in the morning to check their e-mail. You think with all the money they are scamming they would at least get a firewall or something. You might also want to avoid "awesome deals" from Indonesia. Lots of scammers their too.
