Customer bolts with $260,000 iPhone 17 Pro Max ordered through Facebook Marketplace

(Kaieteur News) – A woman selling an iPhone 17 Pro Max through Facebook Marketplace was left stunned after a prospective buyer allegedly snatched the device and fled through a nearby alleyway during a transaction on Mandela Avenue, Georgetown, on Wednesday, October 28.

The suspect was identified by the victim as Travis Payne, an ex-convict who recently appeared in an interview with Travis Chase on Kaieteur Radio, where he claimed to have changed his ways and accused police ranks of using his criminal past to extort money from him.

According to the victim, Payne allegedly contacted her after seeing the phone advertised on Facebook Marketplace for $260,000.
