澳大利亞布里斯班一名21歲的女子在網(wǎng)上求購(gòu)蘋(píng)果公司的iPhone手機(jī)，可是跟賣家完成交易后打開(kāi)包裝盒才發(fā)現(xiàn)里面是兩個(gè)青蘋(píng)果。據(jù)當(dāng)?shù)鼐浇榻B，這名女子在一個(gè)名叫Gumtree的在線交易網(wǎng)站發(fā)布求購(gòu)廣告，稱想購(gòu)買幾個(gè)iPhone手機(jī)，后來(lái)有一名女子打來(lái)電話，自稱有兩個(gè)“蘋(píng)果”出售。于是，二人約好在一家麥當(dāng)勞見(jiàn)面完成交易。求購(gòu)者當(dāng)場(chǎng)支付了1500美元，出售方則交給她兩個(gè)嶄新的iPhone手機(jī)盒子，但是求購(gòu)方并沒(méi)有當(dāng)場(chǎng)打開(kāi)驗(yàn)貨。等她回家打開(kāi)盒子的時(shí)候，才發(fā)現(xiàn)里面裝的是兩個(gè)蘋(píng)果。不過(guò)，這名女子的遭遇并沒(méi)有得到網(wǎng)友們的同情，很多網(wǎng)友評(píng)論稱“怎么會(huì)有人把1500美金交給一個(gè)陌生人而不當(dāng)面驗(yàn)貨的”，“如果是我犯了這么愚蠢的錯(cuò)誤，我肯定都不好意思去報(bào)案的”。

An Australian woman who paid ￡800 for two new Apple iPhones lost her money when she opened the boxes - and found two real green apples inside.

The 21-year-old Brisbane woman had placed an advertisement in an online buy-and-sell site saying she was looking to purchase a number of iPhones.

Police in the Queensland town of Upper Mt Gravatt, near Brisbane, said that not long after the advert was placed in the Gumtree site a woman called and said she had two Apples for sale.

Senior Constable Jess Hopkin of the Upper Mt Gravatt Crime Prevention Unit said the two women arranged to meet at a McDonald's outlet, where the transaction took place.

The purchaser handed over $1500, and was given two new iPhone boxes in return, the Quest community newspaper of Queensland reported today. Her mistake was to not look inside.

On returning home the young woman opened the boxes and found to her horror that they contained real apples.

Senior Constable Hopkin warned people to be wary when they buy anything online.

'Don't stay away because most people are doing the right thing - but be smart about what you buy,' she said.

'If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. It's really just common sense.'

Commentators writing on an online site weren't letting the buyer off the hook with their criticism.

'I don't know anyone that would hand over $1500 to a stranger without checking the item,' wrote one man.

'Besides, you can buy a brand new iPhone5 for $700. So if this is a true story then I'm sorry but she deserved it!'

A woman asked: 'And she went to the police?? Seriously, I'd be too embarrassed to go to the police if I'd been that stupid.'

But 'Victa' added a touch of humour, writing: 'An apple a day keeps the scammers away?'
