Double Take verdict

Proceed With Caution

Four scam patterns line up on this listing — we would not pay before meeting in person.

Executive summary

“iPhone 15 Pro — barely used, must sell today” combines a brand-new account, recycled photos, a price far below any realistic resale value, and pressure to pay off-platform. Individually each is possible; together they match the classic marketplace bait pattern.

Positive signals

  • Listing is on a platform with buyer protection available
  • Photos are original resolution, not screenshots of screenshots

Risk factors

  • Seller account created 3 days ago
  • Reverse image match found on 4 other listings
  • Asking price 65% below market value
  • Payment requested outside the marketplace

How to increase confidence

  • Meet in a public place and inspect the device
  • Ask for the IMEI and check it against carrier records
  • Pay only through the platform's protected checkout

Evidence summary

  • Listing photos appear on an unrelated retailer page from 2023
  • Profile has no reviews, no history and a generic display name
  • Comparable local listings average $780 — this one asks $270

Bottom line

Do not send money before meeting.
