eBay counterfeit rings who sell fake flash memory are tracked by members of the investigative team in the FrankenFlash project. The Singapore counterfeit ring continues to be a serious concern for both SOSFakeFlash and FakeMemorySentinel. This fraud ring is highly organized.

Investgator code name Spookie, has decided to reveal to TechReporters at FakeFlashNews how the eBay Singapore ids set up eBay members to become victims of fake flash memory.

Spookie’s report:

Singapore gang continues to rip off eBay buyers

I have been able to track the Singapore gang by the feedback leave. They are using manipulated feedback to increase their feedback score. They can be identified by what they start off selling, mostly Nokia batteries, sometime they sell 4gb usb flash drives, jewelry, and other cell phone batteries.

Let’s take a look at illusionmagic2010, a member of the Singapore gang who has had his feedback manipulated and sold a lot of fake flash drives.

This is a copy of his negatives thanks to toolhuas.org. (Toolhaus is an easy way to look up a seller or buyer id). He has received 12 negative reports for flash drives.
