This site is for people who have integrity, believe in justice and who refuse to allow fraud and greed to rule.

SOSFakeFlash asks that people do not change their feedback to get a refund. You betray everyone! Why should we make the effort to provide information if you chose to think only of yourself?

Fake Flash Memory On Ebay Escalates. SOSFakeFlash Status Report 20091031. Fake Memory Cards, MP3 MP4 Players, USB Flash Drive PenSticks. How To Fight Against Fraud.

Fake (false capacity) flash memory products being sold on eBay continues to grow: usb flash drives, mp3 mp4 players and memory cards. Fraudulent eBay sellers remain defiant and show no signs of stopping or slowing down. eBay does little to prevent sellers from listing false capacity memory advertised at 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB, despite so many complaints from members.

The sale of 16GB fakes remains steady. The escalation in 32GB and 64GB advertised capacity continues at an alarming rate. Some sellers so bold and daring as to list 120GB advertised capacity, a size of flash memory that does not exist. Bits and Bytes math is not the fraudulent sellers concern, snaring consumers searching for unrealistic bargain prices is. Fake flash memory sellers on eBay are only too happy to oblige in providing the phantasies. Only the phantasies soon change to nightmares, once the actual capacity of flash storage chips are exceeded.
