TradeMe bans iPhone auctions

TradeMe is blocking the sale of Apple iPhones, it says, to stop fraudulent auctions.

There is not yet an official on-sale date on the highly-desirable phone, despite numerous private imports.

Hackers have enabled the iPhone, which on release is 'tied' to a specific network, to work on various GSM networks.

It went on sale in the United States on June 29, and Apple has just struck a deal in the United Kingdom which will see it launch on the Spanish-owned 02 network on November 9.

But TradeMe spokesman Dean Winter said TradeMe will not list any auctions - even if sellers can prove they have product - until the phone is released here.

"This is a policy decision based around high fraud risk," he told nzherald.co.nz, "it was leading up to the release of the Xbox 360 that the problem first came to light."
