Redditor buys suspicious drives on eBay just to report the scamming sellers if they get a fake SSD or HDD — latest '16TB' find has weights and microSD card hot-glued inside the enclosure to make it feel legit

Summary

u/Hartkralle says that eBay refunds them when they report these fake drives, so getting scammers banned from the platform is worth their effort. While fake sellers would likely just create a new account on eBay in an hour or so, they say that it's still another hour before an unsuspecting victim buys these fraudulent items.
