A Woodbrook man was duped when he went to sell a $5,000 Iphone 15 to an alleged customer he met on Facebook.
The 32-year-old victim, who lives at One Woodbrook Place, arranged to do the transaction in the car park of the Port-of-Spain General Hospital at 5 pm on Wednesday. The victim handed the phone to the buyer, who handed over a small brown envelope before running off with the phone. Upon checking the envelope, the victim discovered it contained 64 one dollar bills.
He reported the matter to the police and inquiries are continuing.
