I did order a iphone from apples4bitcoins wich is a site listed on "the hidden wiki" and several other playses.
However I did order it 8 days ago and haven't got anything yet. Is anyone familiar with this site? Do you think its legit or can I forget the money and start feeling stupid?
Would love to hear your thoughts and experience about this site. Best regards from Swe

ok good to hear, I didn't actually order anything from there. But it was very tempting. So thank you mprep, it feels pretty good!

How come the site is there if it is a scam? shouldn't it be banned? I wonder why its listed everywhere as a reliable site.

well well, thanks for the info anyway!

Or the site simply has slow processing.

I believe it is a fake site. It's very easy for a scammer to put up a  1 page website on the hidden wiki and ask people to send bitcoins.

TorShops is a "company" on the onion network that hosts these shops.

They're on the TopShops front page as being an "authorized TorShop"

I have never heard of them before. But, it seems a obvious scam. Sorry to hear about you losing Bitcoin. In future if in doubt ask around the forums before ordering.

I think I got scammed because I actually bought iPhone with them. There is no way I can contact them.

I got this on message page

Due to too large message volume only our customers who have already bought from us will be able to use this message function.

If you want to talk to us, please make an order first. We always reply to people who made a purchase within 12-24 hours!


Is there any chance that I can got coins back? Can somebody help me out?
