I had one of my friends fall for this site. Let's just say I have thoroughly enjoyed making fun of him.

"So are you getting Force Unleashed for PS3?...oh, that's right, you don't have one :)"

*facepalm for still being friends with him*

Some people just shouldn't be allowed on the internet.

There's nothing ironic about having a username "hatesbeingrippedoff" and being ripped off.

Exactly, it would only be ironic if the name was "Iwork4Enron" or something.

Um, the details state that it includes a "power brick"! out of all the many SKU's that have come out, i have yet to see one that required a power brick! & it also states it has an "HD AV Cable", Everyone knows the PS3 is made for the HD Generation, but does not include the basic cables to hook up to a good HDTV! (funny stuff!)

How come people fall for stuff like this? Is it just pure stupidity? It's a shame that the law has to deal with all the morons who fall for these kinds of completely obvious scams. Cut off their Internet connection and remove their credit cards, because they are apparently too stupid to have them.

This is absolutely ridiculous.....if this person fell for this, what else has he/she fallen for in the past? How is this the first time this person has gotten screwed? Either way, it's hard to feel sorry for him/her, but sites such as that should never be allowed on the Commercial Internet (.com).

Also, it says it has a 40gb hard drive, yet the PS3 shown has the chrome trim, which the 40gb PS3 does not have.

Wrong! The 40GB PS3 DOES have chrome trim on it. Only the 20GB does not.

Are you people seriously when you ask who is dumb enough to fall for this? Have you not worked with the public in your life? How did bush get elected not once but twice! How is mccain tied with obama after the shape our economy and country is in? How do stupid shows like deal or no deal exist and are so popular? How do people drive cars through the front of a store because they were in drive instead of reverse? I could go on a on but you get the point.

I remember they even had a site for Refubished Xbox 360's for the same price. The style of the site looked the same too. Maybe all this talk about a required power brick was there since it was probably copied and pasted from site to site.

Hard to feel sorry for this person
1.)the normal person who isn't familiar with the PS3 and all the different SKU's and differences. They should have realized that $400-500 system dropped to $35 is a problem. When a deal is too good to be true u usually ask for someone else's opinion which usually with some smart friends will stop u from making stupid decisions.
2.)The person who plays videogames regularly and is up on this website even before this scam was posted would have know it was a scam simply by looking at the header or just reading into if it got that far

The sad part is, there were links to this(as well as similar Wii/Xbox360 promotions) on GMail above the email listings if you had any emails referencing any of those systems or content. :\

If you were dumb enough to fall for that the person that stole your info should be allowed to charge up to the price of a PS3 as a penalty for your idiocy.
