Why does ebay sell fake graphics cards & also recommend them to me by email?

[noodles_the_bograt]

Five times now I have received emails from ebay inviting me to purchase FAKE graphics cards?

Have you ever seen a GTX 1060 wth a VGA connector?

Have you ever seen an "unbranded" nvidia card?

Have you ever seen a nvidia card that CANNOT be updated online?

I'm sure many buyers have been conned by these sellers

Ebay doesn't sell anything. And they don't allow fakes to be sold on their sites - that is why there's a 'Report' button on every listing.

Are you sure these emails are genuine Ebay emails...?  They're far more likely to be phishing emails sent by criminal gangs.  If you've clicked on any links in these emails, check your device/s for malware, and change all your passwords.
