Obvious Scam
Ryan, I received a similar PM recently.
 The same phone… I PM’d Leon about it and he banned him. Thanks again, Leon! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Last edited by 4815162342; 02-09-2024 at 06:14 AM.

The positive is the scams are low effort, at least.
Poor grammar and syntax? Check Immediate request to email a different address? Check Cheap crappy Android designed for second and third world markets in the Tapatalk sent from? Check May they never get better and high effort.

Tecno phones are made in China mainly for the African and India markets. Wow, is that a knockout giveaway.

They make a pretty impressive product considering it costs like ~$70 USD. It's really a wonderful thing that access to completely functional and useful smartphones are spreading down quickly to poorer and poorer residents of low standard of living countries, so much potential here to create better quality of life and open new opportunities for previously disconnected people. Unfortunately in the context of western collecting hobbies, encountering these phones = 100% a scammer lol
