If Yliele.com IS a scam site, it's the most sophisticated I've seen- everything is there, including proper account setups, transaction records, tracking etc. I'm waiting to see if I've been had, after thinking a friend of mine had bought an iphone from there and recommended it to me. Time will tell and perhaps my eye for a bargain will have misled me.

Yes, yliele.com IS a scam, as is reveole.com! Avoid it at all costs! I lost US610 in December 09 by falling for it, wanting an iPhone 3GS 32Gb.(570 + freight. They string you along then nothing happens. They went quiet for a while but are back in business with their clever Live Chat robot.Put as many warnings and blogs out there as you can.
