The buyer of iPhone 15 Pro Max received an Android phone from Apple’s website! + Photo
In one of the strangest incidents we’ve heard in a while, a UK resident who ordered the iPhone 15 Pro Max directly from Apple’s official website was met with a strange product upon delivery: a fake iPhone that was actually a skinned Android phone. It was iOS. It seems that there is a serious problem in the process of sending Apple products.
According to Published report, bought in the UK, immediately realized something was wrong after unboxing Apple’s flagship iPhone. The first thing he noticed was that the phone had a screen protector installed on it, leading him to think that maybe a return item had been sent to him. However, upon further inspection of the packaging, he saw that he was dealing with a completely different product. This person posted photos of this fake product Reddit has published:

When the buyer turned on the phone, he realized that the screen also had a problem; The black color of the screen looked white and was not at all like the quality of OLED screens; At the bottom of the phone, there is a relatively larger border, which is different from Apple’s design style. It was after loading the phone that the buyer realized that the device officially sent by Apple was fake.
It seems that the fake iPhone is actually an Android phone with an iOS skin. Also, programs such as Tik Tok, Facebook and YouTube were installed on this phone, and this confirms the assumption that the phone is fake. The user did not enter the phone with his Apple ID and refused to enter Apple Wallet information. If he did so, his personal and financial information might be stolen by the device manufacturers.
Apple has a reputation for safe and secure delivery of its products, and such an occurrence is highly unusual. It seems that there is a security flaw in the process of sending the phone from the Apple store to the destination. This buyer reported the issue to Apple support and the company promised him that they will take care of this issue.
