A New Low in Trump's Mobile Scam: Nearly 600,000 Dubious Preorders
The saga of the Trump phone continues to spiral out of control. In an attempt to revive interest in its non-existent gold-colored device, Trump Mobile has reportedly received nearly 600,000 preorders for the T1, with customers allegedly willing to shell out $100 deposits since June.
While this figure sounds alarming, it's essential to note that none of these claims can be verified. The numbers appear to have originated from a social media post in December, which was later amplified by various sources, including a press office. This lack of transparency raises serious doubts about the accuracy of the data.
Moreover, Trump Mobile has been embroiled in controversy over its alleged promise of manufacturing the T1 phone in the US. In reality, such a claim is impossible due to regulatory hurdles and supply chain issues.
As we delve deeper into this mess, it becomes clear that Trump Mobile's tactics are nothing short of deceptive. The company has already been accused of bait-and-switch tactics, and now we're faced with potentially fabricated preorder figures.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has taken notice of these concerns, urging them to investigate the "bait-and-switch tactics" employed by Trump Mobile. However, it's doubtful that any meaningful action will be taken.
This latest development is a stark reminder of the decade-long rollercoaster ride of scandal and controversy surrounding the Trump name. As one writer put it, "I'd like off this ride, please." It seems unlikely that standards will improve anytime soon in this case.

. Like, nearly 600k dubious preorders? That's just crazy talk! I mean, who falls for this stuff? And $100 deposits since June? Come on, people... get a grip 
. But you know what really gets my goat? The fact that Trump Mobile is trying to make a comeback by spreading fake preorder numbers all over the place 
. Like, can't they just be honest for once? It's not like anyone's going to buy into this scam anyway 
. And don't even get me started on the whole "made in the US" thing... please 
. I'm all for a good conspiracy theory, but this one takes the cake. The FTC should really look into this and put a stop to it ASAP 
.
I don't know how much more of this Trump Mobile drama we can take. The FTC should totally be looking into this. It's not right that they're trying to lure people in with fake promises and bait-and-switch tactics.
I mean, what's the point of even having a phone if it's just gonna be some overpriced piece of junk? At least with other carriers, you know what you're getting. This whole thing is just a big mess... 
600k preorders might sound crazy but let's be real, most people don't even know what they're signing up for 
the ftc should be focusing on the real issues like how trump mobile is actually scamming ppl outta their money 
. Can't believe we're still dealing with this mess from 2024 
the numbers just don't add up here... nearly 600k preorders out of thin air? that's a whole lotta people willing to part with $100 each... and we're supposed to trust the source of these claims? 
.
. The FTC is on the case, which is a good start, but let's see how far they take it 
. If anyone can sniff out a scam, it's the FTC. But I'd rather wait for some concrete evidence before getting too excited (or disappointed) 
.
. It's clear to me that this company is playing some dirty tricks, and it's only a matter of time before the FTC catches up with them 
. Until then, I think we can all agree that Trump Mobile's track record is a real loser 
600k dubious preorders? That's insane! Can't believe these people are so gullible 
From what I've gathered, the supposedly 600k preorders seem like a masterclass in exaggeration – and let's be real, who needs that much hype for a non-existent product?! 
I'm really worried about these nearly 600k dubious preorders for the T1 phone. Like, how can anyone trust a company with numbers like those? They're just begging to be scammed 
. It's like Trump Mobile is trying to spin a narrative here and convince people that the T1 phone is actually worth something 
. If he can't even make a decent phone without resorting to sketchy tactics, how's he gonna lead the country? 
.
gotta wonder when the FTC's gonna take actual action instead of just playin' catch-up 
2024 was supposed 2 be the year they put an end to this charade... seems like we're still stuck in neutral
