A widely circulated video has sparked significant online reactions, capturing the moment a woman expresses extreme dismay as the iPhone X she purchased from a renowned phone market allegedly transforms into a bar of soap.
The incident unfolded at GSM Village in Circle, Ghana, where she reportedly paid Ghs 1,000 (N129,000) for the phone. Initial satisfaction turned into shock as she opened the package at home, revealing the unexpected contents.
Upon returning to the market to address the situation, she discovered the seller, who was unknown, making it impossible to locate. Realizing she had been deceived with no chance of recovering the genuine phone or her money, she broke down in tears, collapsing on the ground.
Social media responses poured in, with @RegardlessYrn advising caution and recounting an ignored warning at their shop. @BongoIdeas emphasized the importance of shopping within established stores in Circle to avoid such scams.
Others shared personal experiences, with @iseldomkpebu recalling a similar incident in 2020, and @DCRENCE1 revealing an embarrassing encounter in 2014 at the same location.
The attached video, shared by Big Kay🇬ðŸ‡, vividly portrays the woman's disappointment, highlighting the need for vigilance in purchases, especially in bustling markets like Circle.
