Scam suspicion

Shome Joseph Ntlaba attempted to purchase my iPhone 14 Plus and turned out to be a **scammer**. He sent a friend to collect the phone but refused to pay in cash. Instead, he claimed to have made an EFT payment, but the funds never reflected in my account. We therefore refused to hand over the phone. His friend left without the phone, despite presenting a fake proof of payment.

Name: Shome Joseph Ntlaba
ID Number: 8811155657085 (I believe it is a fake ID)
Contact Number: +27 79 621 7198

Be cautious when dealing with this individual.
