If they have to trick you by installing unwanted apps on your phone, where you don't even know it's them doing it, then it sounds more like a scam than a great deal.

I agree. That's unfortunately how it is today though - either you pay full price for an unlocked phone (which some people can't afford), or you get junk apps on it. You can usually disable the junk apps at least.
