    They both seem to be getting an iphone for their birthday, not sure what to do as they already have bids on them.

    I see a lot of slightly varied ads on ebay, I assume most are because the poster can't be arsed to write it all down or take pics etc. so just cut n paste someone else' and change a few deets.

    Saying it's a scam is different to proving it so personally, I would steer clear. If people are browsing for that phone, I imagine they may see both the ads and make their own decision based on that.

    Could contact the seller of the first one listed, they could then report the other one for copying their listing. They both have terrible feedback though.
