Is this 64GB Kingston DataTraveler on ebay USA genuine
Are the 64GB Kingston flash drives offered by powerseller878 genuine Kingston? We suggest buyers check the serial numbers with Kingston. If they are genuine then Kingston will be able to verify this. If not then they will be fake capacity and buyers will end up with lost and corrupt data after a while.
Another ebayer in Australia auctioning 64GB DT 150’s
We think it very unlikely indeed that the 64GB DataTraveler 150 flash drives from rubberuler are genuine. Buyers can check the serial numbers with Kingston to find out. We think they will find that they are counterfeits. Counterfeits cause data loss and corruption.
As usual we strongly advise ebayers to test all flash memory with the free program h2testw.
Report in to SOSFakeFlash if your testing confirms you have a false capacity device.

Are these 16GB USB flash drives from China genuine?
We wonder whether or not these flash drives listed by seller buyaolian0912 are genuine or not. If they are then this is indeed an unusual seller as almost all the flash memeory items coming out of China are fake capacity. A statement in the seller’s listing indicates that buyaolian0912 is not entirely honest however:
The item will be delivered by Airmail or Registered Airmail and stated as gift with lower price.
Stating that it is a gift and giving a lower value is a way of evading duties – this makes us suspicious. As usual we strongly advise ebayers to test all flash memory with the free program h2testw.

This 32GB Sandisk flash drive on ebay seems too cheap
We think this 32GB Sandisk is a bit too cheap to be genuine and suspect it could be counterfeit. Seller 07ninja may not be aware that there could be a problem with the drive – if it is counterfeit it will be fake capacity and cause data loss and corruption after a while.
As usual we strongly advise ebayers to test all flash memory with the free program h2testw.
