Trump Mobile collected $59 million in $100 deposits from 590,000 customers for a gold-plated smartphone announced in June 2025, but has not shipped a single unit 11 months later. The company quietly rewrote its terms to say production is not actually guaranteed, meaning customers' deposits may never result in a product. This is a real situation with significant financial implications — nearly $60 million sits unclaimed from customers who made no purchase and received no product, while refunds appear unlikely based on the rewritten fine print.
