While on Amazon the other day a sponsored listing for a $40 16TB External SSD showed up. I reported it as a scam with reasons and examples of realistic products and costs for 16TB. I know no one here would fall for it.

I reported it, and when still up later I left a review to warn the unaware, but it was rejected. The sellers have horrible reviews and products with horrible reviews, so you'd think scam reports would be reviewed and addressed quickly. But I know, that world doesn't exist. Amazon sinks further into crap products and scams, and they're apparently ok with that.
