**The Escobar Gold iPhone: A Scam or a Brilliant Marketing Ploy?**

As I sat down to write this article, I couldn't help but wonder what prompted me to receive a mysterious package from an unknown sender. It was a phone, packaged with no explanation, and the only label on it read "Escobar Gold". The logo was unmistakable - it was the same logo that I had seen in videos of Escobar Inc., a company that seemed to be making headlines for all the wrong reasons.

**The Company Behind the Scam**

So, who is Escobar Inc.? According to my research, they claim to be a technology company that specializes in creating innovative products. But when you dig deeper, it becomes clear that their business model is built on exploiting people's desire for new gadgets and then taking advantage of them by offering "limited edition" phones with ridiculous prices. The catch? There are no refunds.

**The Limited Edition Campaign**

When I opened the package, I was greeted by a sleek black phone with a silver logo emblazoned on it. It looked like a high-end smartphone, but as I dug deeper, I realized that this was just a clever marketing ploy. The "Escobar Gold" name is meant to evoke the image of Pablo Escobar, the infamous Colombian crime lord, and the phone's packaging features images of gold coins and luxurious cars. But in reality, it's just a cheap knockoff with a fancy brand slapped on it.

**The Payment Methods**

As I checked out the phone, I was shocked to see that there were only three payment options: direct bank transfer, cryptocurrency, or Western Union. No credit cards, no PayPal - just these three weird and wacky options that seemed designed to make me uncomfortable. And if you're wondering why they didn't offer refunds, it's because they've made it clear from the start that this is a non-refundable purchase.

**The Red Flag**

There are several red flags raised by Escobar Inc.'s business model. Firstly, their phone seems to be a blatant copy of existing models on the market. Secondly, the payment options seem designed to take advantage of people's financial vulnerability. And thirdly, the lack of transparency about who owns the company and what they plan to do with your money is unsettling.

**The Response from MrWho's The Boss**

I was relieved to see that someone had already taken notice of Escobar Inc.'s antics. MrWho's The Boss, a YouTube personality known for his investigative journalism, has been tracking this company's activities and has even created a video exposing their tactics. According to him, the company ships books to customers instead of phones, which raises more questions than answers.

**The Press Coverage**

As I researched further, I discovered that Escobar Inc.'s phone had already made headlines in several online publications. The site was flooded with comments and complaints from people who had received similar packages or had attempted to purchase the phone online. It's clear that this company is trying to generate buzz around their product, but at what cost?

**The Sponsor: ExpressVPN**

As I continued to dig deeper into Escobar Inc.'s activities, I realized that I needed some protection for my internet security. That's when I turned to ExpressVPN, a sponsor who has graciously offered to help me with this article. As it turns out, they're one of the fastest VPNs on the market, and their commitment to user privacy is unparalleled.

**The Verdict**

So what's the verdict on Escobar Inc.? In my opinion, this company is nothing more than a scam artist who preys on people's desire for new gadgets. Their business model is built on exploiting financial vulnerability, and their lack of transparency about their activities is staggering. If you're considering purchasing from them, I urge you to think twice - there are better uses for your money out there.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enforeign foreign foreign last year a whole bunch of hype started building for this phone called the Escobar phone which turned out just to be a royal Flex pie folding phone with a gold colored paint job that was clearly BS people ordered the phone and never got it then Flash Forward a couple months later there was another one the Escobar fold 2 and I did a video about it at this point which was sort of going over the whole idea that okay this now is another phone we've already seen it's the Samsung Galaxy fold with a gold colored sticker on it and again the people that ordered that phone they lost their money and they never got it so then fast forward again to a couple days ago and I have an email in my inbox from the Escobar guys says our latest phone is scheduled to deliver to you tomorrow we are doing a big launch and then there's a DHL tracking number but like well I already made a video about how you guys are scamming people and how you shouldn't give them any of your money and how you should direct your attention to other things why would you willingly send me another package then again it is from the chief of assassinations maybe I maybe I shouldn't open this but I did I opened it for you guys of course here's what I found they're basically doing the same thing yet again but this time a little more Shameless than before this one they're calling the Escobar gold 11 Pro maybe you've seen the headlines by now so I don't know maybe I missed the Escobar gold 10 and the Escobar gold nine whatever but right at the top of the box is a very familiar looking phone because it's an iPhone 11 Pro with some gold on it there's never any confusion right like they we never thought that the Escobar company was making any sort of phone every single one of these so far has been someone else's phone with some gold wrapped around it and stamping their logo on it just so we're on the same page now this one they're saying they plated in 24 Karat solid gold and you know what honestly this appears to be true this whole sticker thing was too easy to peel off and notice apparently maybe my last video sort of gave it away so now you have this phone where apparently there's some protective clear coating on top that was easy for me to peel off and then it is the actual back of the iPhone but plated in a thin layer of something metallic that appears to be gold now I don't have my Jerry everything most pick but gold is a soft metal scratches at a level two with deeper grooves at a level three so while it's clearly not a sticker on the back of the phone here I am able to actually scratch some of this metal off and appears to just be flecks of gold from my knife if you look into it it's actually not that expensive to coat something this size in a thin layer of gold the escobars even say so on their site something around like 50 bucks but anyway underneath the phone in the box is this piece of paper here labeled condition report which I'll get to in a second and then the accessories and that's it but see I don't want to spend any more time on the product because I feel like the more time we spend on this gold phone the more we lose sight of the bigger picture here they're not going to ship you this just like they didn't ship the fold one or the fold two if you give them your money you won't be getting this either it's just marketing see if we take a step back every company if you want to call it that has a structure in place and has a plan and the components around it designed to make them money as much money as they possibly can and so this is another one of those businesses where you know they've rinsed and repeated this formula enough times that we can see what their strategy is and if this is the first time we're ever wrong about it it's too late because this is the face they've painted for themselves step one pick a desirable tech product and put it on your website for a remarkably cheap so whether it's a two thousand dollar folding phone or a thousand dollar iPhone doesn't really matter as long as the price you list is way below what you'd expect step two hype it up and make up some sort of a story behind it and I do this a lot this is where you see all the wild videos on their various YouTube channels and the unboxings with the Escobar girls etc etc buying ripapple.com and having it redirect to their site you know they're painting this whole image for themselves along with the Escobar name they even made this one limited edition to Just 2 000 units and a story they're pushing this time is that their refurbished iPhones that they're buying and fixing up with genuine Apple parts and then coating them in gold and shipping them it even comes with this condition report like I mentioned earlier that lists the parts of the phone that were good and the parts of the phone that were replaced fun fact a rune from Mr who's the boss we've been talking about this he also got one of these and we compared our condition reports for our phone phones say different things this is actually convincing it is very possible that these are actually refurbished iPhones now do I believe that Escobar Inc is the one's refurbishing it not really and also none of it matters because they're not actually shipping it step three marketing this is the part where they send it to influencers to YouTubers to just get it in front of cameras get the Press wave going I obviously didn't order this phone now the key is to only ship out a few of those to the people who you believe will make the videos and we'll share it with their audiences and things like that but as long as that number of phones is small and you ship them to the right people those videos will generate more sales that you never have to ship and then as a bonus since all press is good press how about a little lawsuit with apple you may have noticed a weird looking paper at the top of the box in the unboxing it's this dear buyer sheet and a 14-page printout of a lawsuit apparently filed by the U.S District Court of Nevada for some reason I'll spare you all the details of actually reading all this because I did it for you basically this one is a 14-page lawsuit about them suing one of their former employees for like stealing a couple thousand bucks from them and the YouTube channel I kind of believe that and then this other one here this dear buyer sheet includes a note about them suing Apple for 2.6 billion dollars and this is apparently because the the head of assassinations was uh was using FaceTime and there was a bug in FaceTime that allowed someone to find his location and so that caused him a lot of distress and that person was trying to kill him and so he had to sue Apple for all the distress and all the money he spent relocating and beefing up his security as you can tell I don't know if you're getting the picture here but that's not worth two billion dollars but for whatever reason the media just loves reporting on this they can't help themselves anyone suing Apple is already kind of big clicks nice juicy headline but for two billion dollars and the escobars how exciting but honestly this might be the smartest thing they've ever done smarter than just sending the phone to YouTubers because you know what they don't expect to win this lawsuit you don't expect do you really expect Apple to settle for two billion dollars for this random company no but you know what they do expect press coverage and you know what else these sites are putting in their articles about this lawsuit ripapple.com the Escobar gold iPhone their brand new campaign the limited edition it's free real estate step four take people's money no refunds basically once they've used all this press to get people to their site finally and they've riled people up with the Escobar name and their crazy videos and the limited edition counter then you'll notice if you actually add this thing to your cart and proceed to checkout the only payment methods for this phone are a direct bank transfer cryptocurrency or a Western Union direct bank transfer this should be just about the biggest red flag ever they're hoping you don't think too hard about it oh you know it's the escobars they got their whole crypto thing going on I don't know but the whole point is these are all non-refundable payment methods and so as they take your money and then Dodge you for a week some couple weeks couple months couple years if they have to you will never get your money back because these are non-refundable payment methods definitely check out Mr who's the boss he's dropping a video at the same time as this where he goes a little more into the the company itself the Escobar Inc people what they're up to and why they actually ship books to people instead of phones the facts are kind of interesting there but to answer my question back at the beginning of the video why did they send me this package and this phone if I've already made a video tearing them down talking about how their phone is a scam and the honest answer as dumb as it sounds is they've probably done the math and realized that this is still good press for them when I put up my last video a couple hours later it looked like their site went down and we felt like oh we can celebrate we actually sort of took them down but no it was really kind of just a hug of death when too many people goes to a site and takes down the server because they can't handle that much traffic the site went back up and maybe at least five or six of you actually tried to give them money to get a phone from seeing my video about it so let me be perfectly clear in this video if I haven't already gotten the plan across do not give them your money unless you never want to see it again and never get anything back for it but they're there are much better uses of just giving away money give it to charity give it to a better cause right now and uh don't pay any attention to this Escobar Inc company as long as they keep rinsing and repeating the same strategy it's not worth paying attention to there you have it but if you do get super curious and just want to visit their site I do advise protecting yourself with the sponsor of this video expressvpn so some of you like to check the apps on my phone in every video and if you have then you're one of the people who's noticed expressvpn on my phone so it's kind of perfect that they're sponsoring this video because they're all about internet security and privacy and of course I've tried other vpns in the past but if you've listened to waveform you know this is the one I've been using for a while because the fastest one I've tried and because they take their stuff very seriously so we've all been spending a lot more time on the internet lately me too and when we do we start to realize this process could be better one example is when you're browsing the internet from the comfort of your own home your internet service provider whether that's Verizon or comcast or whoever they can see every single site that you visit and that's whether you're in incognito mode or you clear your

the whole point is these are all non-refundable payment methods and so as they take your money and then Dodge you for a week some couple weeks couple months couple years if they have to you will never get your money back because these are non-refundable payment methods definitely check out Mr who's the boss he's dropping a video at the same time as this where he goes a little more into the the company itself the Escobar Inc people what they're up to and why they actually ship books to people instead of phones the facts are kind of interesting there but to answer my question back at the beginning of the video why did they send me this package and this phone if I've already made a video tearing them down talking about how their phone is a scam and the honest answer as dumb as it sounds is they've probably done the math and realized that this is still good press for them when I put up my last video a couple hours later it looked like their site went down and we felt like oh we can celebrate we actually sort of took them down but no it was really kind of just a hug of death when too many people goes to a site and takes down the server because they can't handle that much traffic the site went back up and maybe at least five or six of you actually tried to give them money to get a phone from seeing my video about it so let me be perfectly clear in this video if I haven't already gotten the plan across do not give them your money unless you never want to see it again and never get anything back for it but they're there are much better uses of just giving away money give it to charity give it to a better cause right now and uh don't pay any attention to this Escobar Inc company as long as they keep rinsing and repeating the same strategy it's not worth paying attention to there you have it but if you do get super curious and just want to visit their site I do advise protecting yourself with the sponsor of this video expressvpn so some of you like to check the apps on my phone in every video and if you have then you're one of the people who's noticed expressvpn on my phone so it's kind of perfect that they're sponsoring this video because they're all about internet security and privacy and of course I've tried other vpns in the past but if you've listened to waveform you know this is the one I've been using for a while because the fastest one I've tried and because they take their stuff very seriously so we've all been spending a lot more time on the internet lately me too and when we do we start to realize this process could be better one example is when you're browsing the internet from the comfort of your own home your internet service provider whether that's Verizon or comcast or whoever they can see every single site that you visit and that's whether you're in incognito mode or you clear your browsing history or whatever they can see all that and they are legally allowed to take that information and sell it to advertisers to other companies for profit so with expressvpn they rewrite your connection through secure encrypted servers so your ISP cannot see what websites you're visiting even if it is escobarink.com and the cherry on top is you can change your region to pretty much whatever region you want whatever country you want so think of all the different libraries on all these different networks you just unlocked on whether it's Netflix or Hulu or BBC for that matter I've recently been watching billions it's not available at all on the US Netflix but if I switch my location to Japan refresh the page I can watch all the newest stuff when it comes out so unlock hundreds of new shows and content and protect your privacy online will Express yeah make sure you visit the link below or go to expressvpn.com
