So sad to know about your bad experience while shopping online. I have similar experience last year when I wanted to get a new infinix phone, I saw a particular post about them some particular set of phone on promo and I message this seller immediately, we chatted on WhatsApp and I asked for his location because I do likely to pick up my items by myself but it was far from me so I insisted on way billing it. The person was a grown-up man who happens to be a pastor as he claim which make me trust him so much but at the end after spending a lot of money till you date I couldn't get the phone and he scammed me. I was sad but that doesn't give me the impression that all online shopping is a scam because I do learn a lesson from it. The current phone I'm using right now I bought it online through Facebook marketplace I contacted the seller and send my location he came to my location, we bargain the price I paid him.
