It's a scam - anyone offering too good to be true or buy X get 1 free offers on iPhones is a scammer.Legitimate sellers have no need to offer such deals as the items will sell at market price.

Also, he's using a free sub-domain for his website and a free email address - more signs of a scammer.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
