> But reporting them not because their product is impossible, but simply because you think they’re selling it too cheaply?
I'm talking about stuff like a supposed 1TB generic MicroSD card going for $50, when a legit item would sell for ten times that. Here are some examples:
https://www.amazon.com/1024GB-Micro-Memory-Adapter-Camera/dp...
https://www.amazon.com/FidgetKute-Micro-Memory-Storage-1024G...
https://www.amazon.com/Generica-256GB-Micro-Memory-Adapter/d...
https://www.amazon.com/Generica-400GB-Micro-Memory-Adapter/d...
There's a 99-100% chance these are fake, and I don't have to buy one to tell.
It took two minutes for me to find them, by the way. A company as rich as Amazon should easily be able to pay someone to search for fakes like that full time, and even purchase cards to verify their fakeness.
> Seems abusive. I could report my competitors for selling cheaper than I do and hope they get banned.
Offering these things for sale is abusive, reporting them as fake is a public service.
