A dozen of years ago in China you could find 128GB flash drives while in Europe the max capacity you could find were 4GB... those actually were reprogrammed 256MB flash drives the same way to show a huge capacity... it’s an old trick!

As a former eBay employee, while 93 sounds pretty good, anything under 98 or 99 percent positive feedback is a terrible seller. Particularly when looking at counterfeits and scams.
Ty for this news
Thank you! That's actually very helpful, now just to figure the bid snipers!
Plus they only had like 10 reviews. If they had like 1000 reviews, then it would be like 50% positive reviews, but I guess they would be kicked off EBay before that happens.
I would be hesitant to buy from someone with 99.0%. If I buy something pricey on ebay, I would want it to be as close to 100% as possible.
I would also take the time to look at the bad reviews. I just got a great deal on a used smart phone for around $9 (USD). I've been pretty hard pressed to find anything really wrong with it besides being older and having minor superficial scratches, it was being sold as junk because of some camera problem, but I have been able to use the camera for photos and videos. The bad reviews for that seller were along the lines of "whoops I clicked bad review" and "some functions on this phone I bought as "junk" don't work", or the seller not responding fast enough to the buyer (even though it is clearly stated on the item pages because of work there may be delays in communications). Some people are overly picky and/or stupid and leave bad reviews for unjustified reasons.

THE TROUBLE WITH SOME FEED BACK IS people do it even before thoroughly checking things out , so they give feed back as positive and later on find out the stuff actually is bad , others see all the positive feed back and keep ordering things based on it.
Now I know why my SD Card said on it:
100% not fake
Another reason they have positive reviews is damage control. I've bought junk off chinese sellers on Ebay before and if you leave a negative review they immediately start hounding you about how it said in the description you're not allowed to leave negative feedback without contacting them first then they start offering you money back and free replacements until eventually they're basically offering money to leave positive feedback ( I let my negative feedback stand)
that's dumb
accept the money but leave the review negative

"remember kids, when you get a new memory device, max out its capacity with complete crap to make sure its real before the return window" is my personal takeaway as assuming just from the price you're getting scammed and paying more for one could be a demon in is own right.

I feel like Linus doesn’t get enough credit for his presenting skills. He’s walking around, looking away from the camera/teleprompter, and still manages to do a really good job delivering information.
His video about Intel was amazing
It's because he's really passionate about what he does and it really shows
no, he really does suck.
I think they have so many good reviews because most of the people don't realise the files are overwritten. For many it will take months to fill up 32GB and by that time they already left a positive review.
I watched the first 24 second of this video ,and thats all what i want to know thank you linus

@@rob6508 He would only get scammed if he thought he was really getting a 1 TB card. He knew it wasn't going to pencil out to 1 TB. This is an educational video.
To @"iwin" you statement is not really correct (assuming u mean there'd be so much packed into such a small space that it would implode upon itself) is not really a valid concern considering the current stated capacity of the "SD" design specs for "sdxc" a maximum capacity of 2 TB for Micro and regular size (but not mini tho I believe, though I could be wrong since I haven't looked in a while, that they only have the sdHC cap on data size and there are not xc in mini which would make sense because virtually zero currently produced products use mini sds- theyre all micro or full size and even not alot of older ones which most arnt even comparable with SDHC) is 2TB. (Good luck finding them on the market yet tho.)

Well explained! I bought 3 1TB USB flash drives from different seller which also were like that. Sometimes you can't even put a review because the offer has changed or something!
a buddy of mine found a 1T in a bargain bin at a used stuff shop for a few bucks, the owner had no idea what he had or something. I now have it as backup space on my phone. it seems to be working just fine
0:00 - Oh, look, a new video! This is gonna be good!
0:52 - * Has a shock induced seizure *
Some of these product descriptions are absolutely hilarious, I remember one of them said "new upgraded SD card capacity has been expanded and upgraded from original". When I asked the seller what that meant, they said that they were able to "increase the onboard storage capacity" of these cards. Suspicious...
sounds good to me
I am sure I am not the only one who would really like to see an In depth video with Anthony maybe, showing the equipment needed and the procedure on how to actually reprogram a micro SD microcontroller. 4 years later, there are still a lot of these fake cards around and their look more real than ever, so it is still very pertinent.

I opened the case and there was no HDD, but instead 2 bolts and a small flash drive hot glued on one side of the case... At least they added the bolts for weight lol

This starts like a techquike video
I remember seeing similar USB flash bulk.They offered 64GB at the time when 8/16G was on the expensive side. No need to say my first integrity test cracked them open.
As an ex ebay employee... The reason they have positive feedback over a year is because they shilled it. Ebay checks for this but over a shorter timeframe. Also, they might have made a few genuine sales. However you can be certain that any feedback received for that item is either fake or someone who bought it, copied a small file on it and then left feedback. To be fair, anyone who bought that probably isn't tech savvy enough to realise it's a scam until too late.
"To be fair, anyone who bought that probably isn't tech savvy enough to realise it's a scam until too late." yeah, that's the bottom line, the people who would leave negative feedback for a product like this are by and large savvy enough not to buy it in the first place. It takes a *lot* of photos or apps or consumer quality video to fill up 32GB.
How about the fact that you must wait 7 days from the time it shows the item as delivered before you can leave Not positive feedback on ebay which by that point most people forget about it
As an ex-ebay employee.. Maybe you could also tell why you wouldn't just keep track of obvious scams? (e.g. Microsd cards that cannot exist?) Machine learning could be taught to recognize a lot of stuff too.
@@HoudiniFontmeister the idea with that is to give the seller time to resolve the difficulties. So if something breaks in shipping for example you contact them and the seller ships a new one. You do get prompted to leave feedback later though.
@@rkan2 they do. They remove millions and millions a year. However it looks for obvious risks rather than combos. So it'll check low feedback sellers with higher worth items. Branded stuff and obviously illegal stuff. Now it's been 4 years since I worked there so they've probably improved it. However there's over a billion items on ebay every month. Some will get through.
Here is why people gave positive reviews:
1. Buy this fake product (preferably from Singapore)
2. Realise that it is not a 1TB drive but 32gigs or so
3. Take screenshots and pictures of the product and also ebay's description
4. Raise a dispute against seller on grounds of "item does not match the description", backed by ebay money back guarantee.
5. The seller will likely try to knock off the price but if you keep firmly answering his/her messages demanding a full refund he will eventually yield (1 to 2 weeks).
6. You get your money back in full and you get to keep the product unless seller pays the shipping back (which is absurdly expensive)
7. Reformat the drive (firmware) to match its actual size or use some other means to prevent the drive from overwriting.
But even if you do get sub-par drives free this way it's easier just to get extra work and buy a legitimate drive from reliable sources. Even if you fix these drives it is possible that they are old and will not last long anyway.
This does not explain the positive reviews at all.
@2ByQ this is very true, i would still give a crappy review even though they let me keep it. shady business methods, shitty customer service and crap product.
@@TheByQQ you will be amazed 99.9% of stupid people leave feedbacks JUST BECAUSE THEY RECEIVED THE GOODS (in Aliexpress, if you take the time, half of feedbacks are "LOOKS NICE, I STILL DIDN'T TRIED IT".........probably also 99% of people have no idea they are over-writing their own files multiple times.........they probably will think there was a problem with the file itself......because unless you use it to backup movies, how many pictures you need to take with your camera to reach 32GB of data?...probably they realize the scam months after they bought it, and by then, the seller either fly away, or they can't leave any feedback (eBay has 90 days I think, to reverse or edit or leave a feedback)
@@TheByQQ If you leave a negative review, they will often keep bothering you and annoying you until you change it to be positive, sometimes even offering you money just to get you to change it to positive.
Lord English I had one send me a dollar bill with the goods and asked me to leave a nice review. Never did, and I used that dollar on gum.
the same goes for hard drives. I bought a 40G usb drive years ago back in 2000, later found out it was just 20G by opening it up. there was a label stick inside says '20G'....
It is really weird seeing a pulse way ad before the video

Many scammers offers you, when you report them some problems with any ítem, a full refund if you just don't report any problem to eBay and give them a positive vote. Most people try to avoid waiting time for eBay and PayPal solve a dispute.
so I can get a free 32gb sd card through a dispute
scam the scammers
I've had some scammer try and persuade me to not put a dispute in and they would sort it. Hell no, the time for them to be honest was when they sent it in the first place, they lost the trust as soon as they tried to scam someone. 😁
@@WeeabooTrashChannel Yeah, but it's not worth the risk of your shit getting corrupted; even with linus's workaround.
They should accept the refund and then leave a bad review.
man i was looking for a tips and hints how to discern fakes on sd cards thx bro funny thing is this is the first time I watch Linus Tech Tips vids about this case usually I watched most of their computer reviews and consoles thats it xD.
The thing is, it's so slow that by the time you've hit the 32-G limit, the return time has elapsed... Definitely a scam. And I got mine from Amazon.
There are full time jobs in china that involves giving positive reviews to items on sites like taobao, aliexpress, ebay, etc. This is real, and they send out job offers through text without shame. They send these messages to random emails, and phone numbers in China to get people to sign up. I used to live in China and have received these messages before.
Let's face it, CHINA IS BULLSHIT
Nope, they r scams intended for people who r willing to earn "easy money". Actuall pro reviewers are non-exist due to algorithms that ban those folks from using taobao.
If you lives in china,you need to face it.There are jobs like leaving fake reviews and making fake transactions.Many online sellers on taobao.com needs that because it will give you a better ranking and if you are ranked,you can get on their front page.
The sale of sale numbers do exists, but there is no pro reviewers. Sellers usually send people big coupons via crowd-sourcing. Then a random ppl buy and no actuall goods is sent or more often sth cheap (e.g: a birck, not the Supreme branded ones) is sent. There is no pro reviewer simply because the reward is really few, just like how much u get when u use GoogleOpinionRewards.And those who connect sellers and reviewers make more money by giving out normal coupons, just like how u2bers do it. Actually it's really a shame that sometimes Chinese can't get real reviews from real customers.
花陽 小泉 What you describe does happen. Although most are for people who are interesting in earning quick bucks, my point is that these sellers really have no shame in committing fraud, and its not good for consumers who are not that versed in online shopping. They are not able to discern between whether something is a good deal or a scam. And I believe that’s something we can both agree on. I just wanted to say that so everyone knows that these kind of things do occur on a regular basis. The key is to caution everyone who is shopping at these sites to be extra careful.
You can con the seller out of his money if you buy it from Aliexpress and then test it. Then open a dispute and send the the screenshot of the result. 100% refund
Hmm this sounds like interesting way to backup my files :D
Today’s episode: Linus helps pirates
2021 update on this :
I bought a 1tb USB 2 key on sale on Amazon the other day at about 20 CAD, suspecting that kind of scam.
Tested it, and after about 70gb of file copying, files are corrupt and cannot be read.
Did a claim and got a refund without return, so I can keep the card for further testing...
I told the guy on the chat they should remove it from their site, he said the info was sent to some people for investigation, but I doubt it will lead anywhere, for I see a lot of similar products on Amazon...

Flash Drive and SSD online selling in china is more often like to being fake scam
WHY IS EVRY THING RACIST
I'm pretty sure those SD cards are also fireproof.
And foolproof.
Don't forget bulletproof.
Remember when Linus advertises other companies' merch store... Now he owns one.
"We're all crazy
It's not a competition"
anyone else think that they clicked on a tech linked video when they saw the thumbnail?
Elijah Waite I did lol
I did 😂😂
Yup
Yes
Linus: *Breaks the matrix*
Naked Guy: *runs out of view*
Newvegas100 oh no, that was still Linus
This is why you need a drive analyzer as well as a drive restorer. Some of these are actually pretty cheap for the capacity, just buy a fake SD card and re-flash it to show the correct capacity.
I would love to find a program that will allow you to shrink the volume back to the original size.
"They just pretend there's a difference between small ones and big ones."
Whatever you say Linus...

Just like those 12TB usb sticks for 3 dollars at AliExpress
Sandisk released their Sandisk Extreme 1tb micro sdxc in May 2019. Only 5 months after this video. 😊
The audio sounds like it came from an old LTT video, brings back memories, up until the music hit
I get a nostalgia trip when I hear that old fast intro from 2014.
Just imagine all those people out there putting them into their smartphones and loosing irreplaceable data such as videos and pictures they take. Their greed really hurts people.
Everyone should always have backups for all their data. There are no excuses for using technology and not taking the time to learn it.
@@WellBeSerious12 > one may use SD cards to back up their phone's data, that's the point
That data will be shit anyway with the 3d photo's and snap chat ears and nose.
*LOSING* Lose or losing refers to something that is lost or will be lost or will have lost.
Loose or loosing is referred to as something that is released, is released, or will be released.
Example: I let loose of my rope, I was losing my grip. Thusly after losing my grip, I had to let loose of my other rope so I could keep my balance.
@@WellBeSerious12 As you age you will find what you said to be BS. You will regret it.
2 years later and not a bigger one
a buddy found one in a bargain bin at a thrift store and gave it to me. I just ran into the limit by downloading a load of pdfs from it and one's screwed up
Video: Fake SD cards show up everywhere, even on amazon.
Description: Buy SD cards on Amazon
...
He did say in the Video that it's more dependent on the Vendor, not the website.
If you're buying from vendors you can trust (Directly from the maker, Amazon themselves, or a famous brand-name vendor) then you can buy from Amazon... or anywhere else for that matter.
lol
I ALWAYS buy stuff like MicroSD cards directly from Amazon. Not from third-party Amazon sellers or from "Fulfilled by Amazon" sellers. Always check the buying options to know who you are buying from.
BTW same applies to phones. Lots of refurb phones get re-sealed and sold as "new" by third party Amazon sellers.
Buy directly from SansDisk or Kingston
I was after the Hakko soldering station and instantly I was surprised with the massive difference between the eBay 60GBP and Amazon cheapest at 120GBP. After some "youtube research" it becomes obvious, that those ones from eBay were just faked. All of them. Ever since, I do buy my memory cards on Amazon
