Fake memory Cards on Amazon

 Not all products on Amazon are genuine, and the reviews may be fake. Here's an example of fake MicroSD cards. 

First the listing, taken from Amazon today:

Notice the obvious spelling mistake of Extreme. The colour scheme is similar to a well known brand, and the price is too good.  There's 47 reviews, but they are sponsored with the reviewers receiving free memory cards from Amazon. Those reviews actually refer to a different capacity of memory card (64GB). Not a single review actually tested the claimed 512GB f capacity.

Here's a YouTube video (a year old) that gives further details of these types of Scam.

In the following text, I've ask ChatGPT to write a good review for a memory card, the results are very similar to those for the card.:

Review Title: Exceptional Storage Performance in a Compact Package!

I recently purchased the 512 GB SDXC U3 Micro SD card, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. It arrived quickly and was very well-packaged, ensuring the card was protected during transit. This attention to detail was reassuring and set the tone for a great experience.

In terms of performance, this memory card is an absolute gem. The U3 speed rating delivers as promised – lightning-fast read and write speeds, which are perfect for my needs. I use it in my 4K action camera and smartphone, and it handles high-definition video recording and playback flawlessly. No lag, no buffering – just seamless performance.

The 512 GB capacity provides ample storage for all my videos, photos, apps, and files, making it a versatile and reliable choice for both professional and personal use. It formatted easily and was instantly recognized by all my devices, including my laptop and gaming console.

Overall, this SD card offers incredible value for its price. Whether you're a content creator, gamer, or someone who simply needs reliable storage, I highly recommend this product. It's a must-have for anyone seeking high-speed, high-capacity storage in a tiny, durable package!

⭐ Rating: 5/5
✅ Pros: Fast, reliable, large capacity, well-packaged.

Will definitely purchase this brand again in the future. Thank you for delivering such a fantastic product!
