On AliExpress I see things like 64 TB (no, not GB!) USB flash drives for less than 10 euro, obviously a scam. I also see less spectacular products but still good looking deals, but without a brand name so you can't search the web for reviews. On Amazon I never see products like that. That's why I prefer Amazon (and Coolblue and bol.com in Belgium). | ||||||||

I see this kind of fakes on eBay or Amazon all the time. It's even harder to report it than on AliExpress and I never had an obvious report of fakes upheld (AND eBay warns they will forward your identity to the seller. Great thing if the organised crime is involved in this) Case in point, fake 2TB Sandisk ExtremePro microSD: - £17 on eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/336728033240 - even the images prove it's a fake (also $570 on sandisk.com) Agreed, there's more of that on AliExpress but Amazon is not free from that either. | ||||||||

Few years back, Amazon had a rampant "fake USB storage" problem too. Then, one day, all the fakes were gone, just like that. | ||||||||
