AmigaOS 4: Warning against dubious eBay offers
Currently, a supposedly retail version of AmigaOS 4 for classic Amigas is being offered under the designation AMIGA OS4 for Amiga with Blizzard or Cyberstorm PPC on eBay. In the offer, provided with copious text and pictures, the remark that basically, the auction only constitutes a preorder, can be overlooked very easily.
Behind the supplier "ALIEN^TEK" stands a certain Robert O'Neil, who also appears under the aliases "Paradox" and "Amber, Inc," among others. In the past, O'Neil had already been repeatedly charged with fraud, for example, he had temporarily appeared as an AmigaOne dealer without possessing corresponding hardware.
As far as we know, Hyperion is informed of the situation. As a precaution, prospective buyers should refrain from a purchase at this supplier until a clarification of the issue. (cg) (Translation: cad)
