most of the replica iphones on ebay usually say “touch screen phone” or something like that and don’t actually say iphone. and see if they have the original box in the picture or not.
The real iphones won’t have the regular USB plug, and instead they’ll have the plugs like they do on ipods, and most ripoffs have just the regular USB plugs.
You can usually tell the difference though. It’s pretty obvious. And if you aren’t 100% sure then don’t buy from them. Also, if you’re buying on ebay, go look in their customer feedback thing and see what other people that bought iphones have said and don’t buy from them unless they have AT LEAST 100 + positive feedbacks.

You don’t have to worry about purchasing a replica and not an iPhone if you are in fact purchasing your iPhone from an Apple Store (in the US and various other countries) or the proper cell phone company (AT&T, Rogers/Fido, etc.).
If you are purchasing one from ebay, the iPhones look nothing like replicas. There are plenty of iPhone photos out there and conveniently there are some photos on the Apple website! http://apple.com/iphone Crazy.
