People are not happy with Flipkart’s iPhone 16 Pro sale offer<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Flipkart\u2019s Big Billion Day sale has been advertising and teasing the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max sales for the past few days. Many people got excited and decided to wait and buy the premium iPhone Pro model from the platform. But little did they know that buying a phone online would become such a scam. <\/span><\/p>\n

The iPhone 16 Pro sale scam has been trending in the last few days across social media platforms, and most of them have the same complaint, Flipkart is cancelling all the iPhone 16 Pro orders without giving the buyers any reason.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Flipkart Big Billion iPhone 16 Pro Sale Offer: What Did It Say?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Flipkart\u2019s big billion day (BBD) sale said the iPhone 16 Pro will be available at Rs 69,999 with all the deals<\/a> and conditions. Similarly, the iPhone 16 Pro Max will go on sale for just Rs 89,999 during the BBD sale from September 22, 2025 onwards. <\/span><\/p>\n

Flipkart understandably shared the big news about unprecedented orders for the iPhone 16 models and people were hoping to quickly get their hands on their device (and not soap cases or brick).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Flipkart\u2019s iPhone 16 Pro Sale Offer Scam: What\u2019s The Issue?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But 24 hours later, most of these excited customers started to unravel the issues plaguing this \u2018too good to be true\u2019 deal from the platform. Some of the posts on X validate the supposed scam that has been brewing somewhere in the middle between the seller and the buyer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most of these posts say the iPhone 16 Pro orders were placed and they even managed to make it till the checkout page for final payment. And then some time later they noticed that Flipkart had cancelled their order for no rhyme or reason. <\/span><\/p>\n

If this looked like an isolated incident then more posts about angry buyers with the same issue started to paint a very worrying picture for the people spending their money, getting their refund and not the iPhone 16 Pro model they wanted.<\/p>\n

While some of the eager buyers were not pleased with the false marketing for the iPhone 16 Pro offer price, which seems to have run out quickly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Not The First Sale Problem<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Flipkart has been in the BBD sale business for many years now and this is not the first instance of a deal going off the tracks. The platform has become a middleman in recent times, which means it only hosts the sellers who make their products available to the buyer. However, when you start teasing deals like these in the public, you not only get the fame and excitement of these people, you also face their anger if things go sideways. <\/span><\/p>\n
