8GB New Nano ipod's only $49.00, that is a $100. off the current retail price. So if you saw the ad on Facebook (it was on there Thur.) and you ordered one well you may have order more then that. It seams the site was a scam and a clone of the Apple site. The site which has since been shut down was theonedaynanosale.com and from reports you had to enter in your social security number to order one - ok huge red flag there. Needless to say remember that saying that mom use to say "If it sounds to good to be true it probably is". Anyways if you were one of the unfortunate ones to order one then you might want to start checking your credit report.

Online scams are HUGE right now, one way to tell is to ALWAYS check out the URL at the top of the page especially right after you click on an ad. If it's not the original site you need to be wary. In this example, going to the Apple site would have been a smart thing to do, of course not everyone thinks to do this and understandably so, but for anyone who reads this, you need to do this going forward. And any site that asks for your SS # or any other personal information like this when you're just making a regular purchase, well thats a huge red flag right there. Another thing to be very wary of is, when you order something and all they want is shipping and handling that's another red flag, you're entering in your credit/debit card number which gives them access to your account. ALWAYS CHECK THE URL. !

Yet another reason the use adblock or other ad blocking techniques. I use Facebook everyday and never see ads.
