example



a 2TB external hard disk for RM77.99 ?
I found many listings for hard disks on Shopee and Lazada around the same price, are they all scams?

Only buy from reputable online shop.

2TB pendrive RM18.99
Lifetime warranty somemore.

fake product. dont buy

get ready to have some sand in the box......
and a thumb drive inside...

all scams, please refer to

most likely you will get the 2nd one

basically, they put a pendrive inside that says it's 2TB, which it is not
in reality it's like 8 to 64GB so that during the first month or so you won't notice
once the return/refund time runs out and you continue to store more, you will eventually run out of the fake storage

at that point, the device just starts discarding data saved to it and your files will appear to be corrupted

it's a scam, do not buy

Maybe it's a real thumb...

yourself

salary high or low ?

I dissected one b4.

Plug into Windows, u see capacity 1TB. But when opened up, inside is a 2.5" 80GB Toshiba.

all those poor people who left positive reviews ...

more like there are a huge bunch of tech illiterates, cheapskates and greedy people in malaysia
see the news also know dy, everyday got news about scamming over a million bucks per person...

Msians love to get scammed. When they can be had on a national level, kena private scams is nothing. Its just their greediness & not being knowledgeable.

Sometimes it's just the sellers themselves doing that

I've seen some listings in the process of being set up

they set the price to 10 cents, make their own accounts buy a lot
eg, 200 of them
buy multiple times from multiple accounts

leave 5 star review with text/pics stolen from REAL listings

done

you now have a 5 star 1k sold listing

set price to intended price

start scamming

as soon as the reports start/ people start leaving 1 star reviews
delete listing

create new one and repeat until account banned

which after that, create a new account and repeat once more

Next time put the link here la. Some people here can give you advice whether it is fake or not easily.

Always check real shop prices like Low Yat Shops, All IT, Just IT, E-Tex, Idealtech, Yes IT before buying.

Too good to be true prices is 100% scam.
