So far no one is stupid enough to try and list a 1TB USB Flash Thumb Drive on eBay. There is no such capacity 1TB as available on the market for flash memory pendrives.
Not too long ago, 512GB flash drives stood out on eBay screaming FAKE. Not any longer, more foolish eBay sellers are listing them and eBay has difficulty keeping up with this false capacity.
So will fake usb flash drives start showing up on eBay? Yes. You can expect sellers at the moment to hide them under categories not obvious to eBay, eBay is not that smart. Fake Flash Memory sellers on eBay are smarter. They usually go this route when the capacity they advertise is suspect, they continue to do this until the capacity is actually manufactured by a brand name, then they grow bold. Fortunately no brand name has announced a thumb drive yet, at a real capacity of more than 256GB. When they do, all hell will brake loose on eBay and a new higher capacity of fakes will be come “normal” on eBay.

Every day, new listings appear on eBay for DT310 DataTraveler usb flash drives and most don’t last very long as eBay under pressure from Kingston Technologies is forced to remove the counterfeits. eBay does not catch all the sellers, some survive for as long a week. A lot of eBay sellers rant and rave at SOSFakeFlash and FakeMemorySentinel, for being caught with DT310 fakes. Where did they buy them to sell on eBay? From an authorized Kingston reseller or Kingston Technologies? No. So far not one seller reported at either site has sent SOSFakeFlash an RMA from Kingston Technologies attesting to the fact the items were genuine Kingston products and indeed defective DT310 usb flash drives. They imported them from a Chinese internet wholesaling site. You can now buy them for as little as 2.90 US On Alibaba.com.
If eBay sellers were stupid enough to think they could get real capacity flash memory DT310 at such unbelievable prices, should you feel sorry for them? Who suffers most from their mistakes? Did they refund you the files you lost?
If eBay catches the seller, the id will most likely be suspended and you have a good chance of getting your money back for a DT310 fake. Should you be thanking eBay? If you answer yes, you are unfortunately ill informed as a flash memory victim on eBay. The only reason you might be getting your money back is because of the thousands of eBay buyers who have complained before you, the time they spent to warn other buyers for a seller and also the effort of volunteers who slave away at the FrankenFlash project sites trying to protect you and to force eBay to refund you.
Do not be naive in assuming it was solely your own effort that got you a refund. It is the pressure on a global internet scale that has helped you.
eBay sellers are blind, they do not research their product, they run to internet sites in China to import the fakes into their home country. You are the ones who pay the price for their greed and stupidity.

Foolish people are going to import 512GB usb flash drives from China. Why are they foolish? In 2011 there are no 512 GB thumb drives for sale, the size is not manufactured and it won’t be for some time yet.

If you wish to believe it is possible you will be come a victim of flash memory fraud.

Is it possible to import 128GB Genuine SDHC Flash Memory SD Cards at a cost price of $25 US? Is true capacity SDHC Flash Memory SD Cards at 128GB is that cheap? Unfortunately many resellers and especially eBay sellers believe you can get a special bargain if you import from a wholesale site in China.
Since the early days in the war against fake flash memory, Alibaba.com has been on the radar as a site notorious for fake flash memory purchases on a massive scale. Do potential buyers check with the brand name advertised to sell if the listed seller on Alibaba is authorized to sell on behalf of the brand? Most do not, they are beguiled by the prices offered and make the false assumption that anything purchased from China must be cheap in price. While that might be true for some products, it is not for flash memory.
More and more eBay sellers are being suspended, their reputations ruined for good, the price of not exercising care in making sure their flash memory products are genuine and real capacity. eBay buyers suffer the misery of losing data and files – fighting for their refunds. The frauded buyers are the ones who are aggressively forcing eBay to suspend these sellers. The sellers have little excuse, in 2011 the internet is flooded with information on fake flash memory in general, but more specifically on eBay.

rpbtos is an eBay seller of Counterfeit (Fake hacked – false capacity memory) memory cards. Registered in the United States, rpbtos sold fake 32GB Micro SD Cards.
Why do people trust eBay flash memory sellers in the United States?
How do people discover they have false capacity flash memory?
I bought the card and loaded it with (or so I thought) about 21 GB of Videos and pictures and sound files for use on my Palm LifeDrive. When I went to play the files, the were all in the file list, but only some of them would play. I found that only about 8GB of data was actually on the card. The file names were all there, but there was no data in the files, and when I actually checked the folders my computer showed most of the folders as being empty.
Does this observation describe your experience with a purchase of a flash memory card on eBay?
Fake memory cards are no different from fake capacity mp players or usb flash drives. The usb controller chip and the flash storage chip have been manipulated to lie about real capacity. There are many techniques to “upgrade flash memory”, one of them is to reserve space to record the file and folder name so they appear to be there. You need to know that once the real capacity of a flash storage chip is exceeded, there is no place to write the file, no space.
US eBay sellers are famous for trying to con you into believing the item is ‘defective’. Upgraded flash memory is not defective, it is digitally altered to lie about true flash storage capacity. The programme that will help you learn the truth? H2testw. Use it. Test. It is free to use. It was developed to help people find out the truth about flash memory storage chips.
