Dodgy looking auctions for Kingston flash drives on ebay Australia

We are rather surprised to see Australian ebay member westryde listing a range of Kingston USB flash drives all with a $0.01 start price and free P&P!! Models advertised are the 64GB DT 400 model shown above, 16GB DT G2, 16GB DT 400, 16GB, 32GB and 128GB DT 200. Is this seller off his or her trolly or are these all fakes?

As usual we strongly advise ebayers to test all flash memory with the free program h2testw.

Seller in N Ireland lists the fraudsters’ favourite on ebay

Looks like asperou1974 (an ebay member in Northern Ireland) has been shopping in fake flash land and come back from a fraudulent wholesaler with the fraudsters’ favourite USB flash drive. These always prove to be fake capacity and cause data loss and corruption. The seller may be unaware that the supplier was fraudulent and these are fake.

Baby gremlin from China on ebay claims fake flash made in Japan

Baby Gremlin chenjiaenniu is selling the fraudster’s favourite flash drive at a rather bold 32GB. This seller is advertising this known fake with a new twist we have seen in one or two sellers’ listings recently.

Some sellers now claim that these are made in Japan! Why? Because people are rightly becoming suspicious about flash memory coming out of China! We have never come across one of these with a capacity over 4GB.
