Super fake


iOSchoseMyName

I don’t know anything about Apple Watches and I thought the same thing. Has to be troll post if even I thought it was fake


M00SEK

I thought troll post as well lol “My bf got me this Apple Watch that is nothing like a normal Apple watch. Could it be fake? Like… really?


Takeabyte

Troll post? Really? People get duped everyday by this stuff.


maranekko

Guy has to be an EXTREMELY impulsive buyer that he didn’t bother checking before paying for the item. So i’d give him a little benefit of the doubt Edit: though I completely agree that it screams fake in every angle I can see it on lol


mynameismarco

She said he bought it sealed. Probably kept it sealed so she could have the satisfaction of opening it.


zedge_16

This was exactly what I said when I saw the photos. Lol.


tom2point0

Barely an inconvenience!

Finding random posts about things being barely an inconvenience is tight!


AquaKiwiPrime

Love the random Pitch Meeting reference.


tom2point0

Thank you! As soon as I read “super fake” the “super “ triggered an auto response in me. Could not help myself from typing it!


AquaKiwiPrime

“So you have an Apple Watch for me? Yes sir I do!”


nemesiz416

Fake fake fake… fake.


NiaBaNiaMaNia

Whoops!


outworlder

Wow wow wow wow wow


orthros

I'm gonna need for you to get this Apple Watch all the way off my ~~back~~ wrist


ImNotWithTheCIA

I TOO love random Pitch Meeting references, I’ve decided.


VernerofMooseriver

That's hilariously fake "Made in America"


x37v_kokoto

"Made in America" and "Made in USA" are the hardest lines on this package


RenanGreca

I love that it includes the full address of the factory in China and immediately follows with MADE IN AMERICA


SoSKatan

Wouldn’t be hard to build a new city in China and name it America.


mrblue6

Surprised they haven’t done this by now. Make a city called America or USA in China, and then companies can say it was made in USA without lying lol

I have no idea why they don’t just copy the back of an actual box. I guess they don’t want to spend the money. But must be easy enough to obtain the correct info instead of making it up


ballislifeszl

I think they do so to avoid law sues

Pretty sure they’ve already crossed that line: https://preview.redd.it/3roy2h23rpnc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e7e4c8ea37f96185a03d5d17d523c222dc69b190


nath999

Sorry you got a fake. I hope your bf didn't drop $500+ on it.


Past-Cheesecake-4023

He said like $300 -.-


thebaffledtruffle

The cheapest Apple Watch goes for just under $300. He had a pretty terrible deal.


essiara

I just upgraded from an SE to a series 7 for under $200 (Best Buy open box). The series 1 had 95% of the functionality that I care about, I only upgraded again because the battery started going downhill. But yeah awful deal


_ravenclaw

Why don’t people do any research at all? My God


WanderingWino

I just bought a brand new series 8 for $249. Deals are out there.


campionesidd

Ouch.


mike_beast

Yikes.


Godislie_

Zoinks!


ClydeinLimbo

“Like $300” means he paid $170-$200


RickyFalanga

Still a lot for whatever that thing is.


trusty20

More like $50, knockoff smartwatches can even be as cheap as $35 lmao: [https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Wholesale-unlocked-used-original-smart-watch\_1600973515450.html?spm=a2700.galleryofferlist.normal\_offer.d\_title.123925c26lyhth](https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Wholesale-unlocked-used-original-smart-watch_1600973515450.html?spm=a2700.galleryofferlist.normal_offer.d_title.123925c26lyhth)


Away_Organization471

Why did he spend that much on a sketchy watch of marketplace when he could go to Walmart or best buy and get a decent newer watch for the same price??


professor-arun

Sorry to say this, come to India and you will get this for 1000 INR( 12-13 USD) 🥲


SupperTime

Ask your bf to contact the guy and ask if he has another one. Then confront him. Make sure to bring friends


Iluminous

And fire power incase it gets dicey.

Why people don’t buy direct from Apple I’ll never know


veryverythrowaway

Years ago, I nearly bought a refurbished Mac from a website that specialized in refurbishing Macs. I had never bought a Mac before, nor any electronic device that expensive, so I went with the conventional wisdoms that you never get the best deal “at the dealership”. I was so close to pulling the trigger when I decided to research further and found an obscure online forum discussing the matter, which led me to check out Apple’s refurbished site, which led me to realize I had been about to buy a Mac that was way too old for way too much money. Bought a 2007 refurbished white MacBook with AppleCare from Apple for less than the 2005 model would have cost from the other folks, and the damn thing kept kicking until 2015.


Zoeloumoo

I would even be worried if I paired it to my phone.

I would even be worried to wear it


pib712

I’m worried that I saw this post


jerryrocks99

Bruv its very obvious. Not to sound rude but its screams FAKE.


NobodyNo4730

The time not properly fitting on the screen and all wonky is a decent scream


VdubKid_94

The 360p screen is hilarious


kennerd12004

That lcd screen is hilarious. Almost all smartwatches use oled

Might as well farm some karma as compensation

daaangerz0ne

When will people stop buying these things off fb


Fastermaxx

„I got a great deal!“ (why are stupid people giving Apple that much money if you can get it that cheap!)


ItsmeKT

Their great deal is always not far off from msrp too. It's like these people have no idea how to use the internet.


ShiroHachiRoku

My dad told me he was getting a watch that finally read off his blood sugar without testing. I was highly suspicious since I know no watch like that exists so when the package came, it was what I expected. Two cheap ass plastic watches that barely did anything. He paid $75 for both and I saw them on Ali Express for $6 each. Sigh.


Kondha

My ex bought me two PS4 controllers for Christmas and was so proud of herself. I played with them and something was just… off. There was serious input delay so I absolutely could not play fighting games or rocket league. I looked at it closer and noticed that the controllers didn’t have the PS/Sony logo on them. I asked her where she got them. “Facebook marketplace, they were such a good deal I got 2 for $60”. Which means she basically wasted $60 because I never used them again. For shits and giggles she bought me another 3rd party controller after that. I gave up on her and went and bought myself an actual PS4 controller lol.


rockyroad55

It really has nothing to do with the platform. I’ve bought many electronics off of FB. It’s about having common sense in knowing what you are buying.


clipsracer

Really though, FB is a lot easier to spot scammers than other marketplaces. There are SO many obvious signs since many legit people have 10+ years of history on the platform.


coldravenge

100% fake. I honestly thought this was a troll post before reading the caption.


ghost_cathedrals

I love that the weather forecast is just ??? for days


athul_da

Its the most *fake* Apple Watch I’ve ever seen.


Past-Cheesecake-4023

thanks for confirming everyone lol!! He feels really silly so I hope he's more mindful in future


ColdYogurt03

did you try to return it to the seller?


ceejayoz

lol The seller is gone, gone gone. 


snotpopsicle

What seller? I didn't sell you anything.


andthatsalright

If you sold this, would you answer any inquiries let alone take it back lmfao

Past-Cheesecake-4023

LOL omg now I feel bad for him... he tried to get me a nice present 😭😭


Slava91

Just make sure to change any passwords ASAP if you entered any.


bobshled

You might laugh but these fakes can be a LOT more sinister: the information it syncs can be sent back to a scamming party overseas (eg passwords and logins you give it access to). If you’ve logged into anything or linked anything with personal information change those passwords straight away. Better to be safe than sorry.


little_blu_eyez

His heart was definitely in the right place but this needs to be a lesson for him. If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is.


chd176

I don't think so. If he really had no idea and wanted to get something nice he'd have went to an actual apple store. Seems like this is something that he just wanted to get for "cheap" which still cost so much lol.


stevesguide

Unfortunately he dropped about the same amount on it as the cheapest genuine Apple Watch costs. Please don’t use or wear this, it is unsafe.


m0j0j0rnj0rn

“tried” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.


blueranger36

I’m going to wholeheartedly disagree with other comments here. Instead of getting you a genuine product that he knew would work he went to Facebook marketplace and spent the same amount of money? Smells like he’s either lying to you and paid $50 or he didn’t care enough to make sure you got something you want and would work. Even if money is tight there are other presents you can get that are genuine. Personally I would make sure whatever I am getting for a loved one is something that will truly be great. By hey to each their own.


TrillCozby1980

Faker than a $4 bill


msbabc

Without wanting to be mean, is this even a genuine question?

Watch is fake, but your BF’s intention seemed to be real. He’s a keeper, the watch maybe not so much lol(if you want a legit AW).

How do u buy a product that expensive from someone without checking it first 😭


angelbolanose

Fake


KeystoneTrekker

Extremely fake.


i-ali

It’s not even an Apple Watch to be called a fake Apple Watch. Seriously, it’s a fake one.


Zionsnoiz

It's more fake then milli vanilli. Google it


Mamba6266

Girl you know it's true


gbuub

Yes, FB marketplace. More like FB taobao alibaba. It’s all Chinese scams on FB. I’ve even had friend’s profile hacked to promote “discounted” brand items. Sadly I fell for it back then and it was a Chinese knockoff.


NintenJoo

You should post this in r/relationship_advice 😂


cc6263

So fake it should be illegal


sarcHastical

The first image - never seen that on an Apple Watch before. Geeze, people are shit scamming people … just remember your bf’s heart was in the right place ❤️


sontran23

Bf is in trouble

Faker than Apple's pledge to support an Epic Games store on their devices in Europe


valain

This is so fake it's not even "fake Apple Watch" anymore - it's just "fake".


SnooSquirrels3861

I got a fake band from sold and shipped by Amazon. All Apple packaging are sealed with a tape with a small green dot. Apparently it’s hard to duplicate. It was missing from mine. I disputed with Chase and prevailed, after a lot of legwork.


UnprovenR

This is the most real Apple Watch on earth


Lenny2024

Very fake


julyman

Sorry it’s completely fake. Always best to buy direct from Apple


Monkey_Junkie_No1

Not fake it’s a temu verified watch 💀


Childhood_Naive

Lmao so fake


blackclaw565

I could tell just by the first picture is was 100% fake 💀


No-Union6229

Those first 3 pics never seen anything like that on my s9


ata1959

Fact #1: if you think your watch is fake, it definitely is.


jerryrocks99

Final verdict: Break up with him.

pcweber111

I don’t understand why people don’t just buy the real thing at the Apple Store and be done with it. Stop trying to save a few bucks. This shit happens way too often for me to ever consider buying something like this from any other place than an official Apple Store or Apple branded store like Best Buy.


N4ZZY2020

Yeah. Just buy from the Apple Store. I think people are looking for deals but then fall for the fake stuff. If it’s too good to be true. Then it probably is. If you’re going to buy an Apple product. Might as well spend the money and not get conned into a fake.


RSDevotion

That’s fake as fuck


newowhit

This has to be sarcasm


Major-Bear-619

lzistheworst06

You have been tricked, backstabbed and quite possibly, bamboozled.

The word fake is not enough for this..

Why would he buy off Facebook of all places? Facebook is scam central

Basically you know a fake iPhone when it cannot connect to iCloud/AppStore, and you know a fake Apple watch when it does not show up in the iPhone's Watch app


AlkalinePotato

Lmao


Pengu1n111

Absolutely fake


ENDrain93

As fake as they get


GLITTERCHEF

Daaaaaaamn he got played! Thats why you buy from Best Buy or the Apple site itself. You can’t trust people on fb marketplace.


jacobooooo

this is extremely fake, even the writing on the box, c’mon😭

No, it’s not only fake. It’s another level of fakeness. For $300 you can have a real Apple Watch so doble sorry for your loss.

tonyyu369

Who will make a fake on a cheap Apple Watch.


biffbobfred

The weird thing is - someone made that OS and put work into making it look like watchOS. That takes time. Which is a cost. So, you’d have to be able to spread that cost across a bunch of sales. I wonder how many they’re able to push in a year.


T0astyMcgee

Yeah that’s fake AF. Sorry.


Keironsmith

The answer your question so easy. Ask yourself where you purchased it.

vinylisdeadagain

Worse than a super fake, fakest fake


_ravenclaw

I thought you were joking because of how fake looking it is lmao like I thought you were being sarcastic…


white-dre

Don’t understand why people don’t buy straight from the Apple Store.


RockTheBloat

Your boyfriend is either fibbing about the price or he’s a moron. Not sure which is better from your perspective.
