The scam was first brought to CTV’s attention by a victim of the crime, Mark Sandhu. Sandhu says after purchasing what he thought was an iPad 2 for his wife for Christmas, he tried to return the clay, only to be rebuffed. “Maybe the way I was dressed, I don’t know,” he said. “She made me feel like I’m trying to scam them out of $700. I was the one getting scammed.”
Sandhu contacted Future Shop’s head office, Apple and local police, but no one believed his story. Future Shop has since apologized and given Sandhu a full refund along with a free tablet—a real one.
glad that poor guy finally got his refund! i can’t imagine how frustrated i’d be if nobody believed me.
