Lightbulb Sub Section in "It's Broke" for all things related to Clones?

Basically, with the sheer amount of fake, and cloned N95 handsets in the market place, i was wondering if it would be possible to have a sub category in the "It's broke" area. This could be a place for anyone who wishes to check things out to avoid falling for a clone, and also a place for anyone who has already fallen prey to buying one which maybe was advertised as genuine. Advice regarding claiming back their money, if purchased on eBay, and paid by Paypal with a credit card etc.

In this area, people can also get advice, tips, and information on not only what to look out for, but also to check photos posted by myself, and other members who wish to help the cause.

I do not mind keeping this particular area tidy, and informative, and also, if given the power, move related threads to this area, thus keeping all things clones, and fake n95 related together.

If this idea is granted, maybe call it "Cloned, & Fake N95 lookout"?

Any input from other members here welcomed.

Why you think guys.? Im all for helping others, and if we can do all we can to avoid people here wasting their hard earned on a piece of junk, it will be worth it, i mean, we are not talking pocket change here either, with some Clones being sold for several hundred dollars, its quite damaging to many people.

Look forward to anyones input, suggestions, and above all, what Admin thinks of this idea.

Regards

Micky

I think it is a good idea specially if you started with a photos collection showing the real Nokia compared to the fake one ...like a guideline for users ..what to look for on the phone to see if it original or fake .. 99% of people when the phone behave badly they think it is something they done or the phone just broke they dont like to think it is fake and they have been robbed....
This is my own opinion and I think the idea is good.
