RTX 4070 Ti Amazon Scam
Amazon link: https://a.co/d/2HhvHc5

I recently ordered this gpu, and I received the package today. Turns out it wasn't the card at all, and I received a camera lens instead. I've already issued a refund, and I realized the vendor I got this from wasn't amazon. There is however a listing for $829.99 shipped and sold by amazon. I'm questioning the legitimacy of this listing entirely.

Does amazon even sell this thing?

Yeah, I did see that afterwards. I'm just so skeptical now if even the shipped and sold from amazon is safe. Feels like trauma, lol

Do you think the MSI version shipped and sold on amazon is safe?

This one, unlike the one you had ordered from (sold by Bestree Tech) is sold by Amazon, so it looks like a safer bet.

On Amazon, always look under the Add to Cart / Buy Now buttons.
For the ZOTAC 4070 Ti I linked above it says:

Ships from: Amazon.com

Sold by: Amazon.com (THIS is what you mainly want to focus on; if it's a 3rd party, it can be hit/miss sometimes, but usually is still OK. Amazon backs it all up either way)

Returns: Eligible for Return, Refund or Replacement within 30 days of receipt
This item can be returned in its original condition for a full refund or replacement within 30 days of receipt.

Support: Free Amazon tech support included

On a side note, please ensure you know the GPU will fit in your Case with a little breathing room at the end of the card so it's not too tight of a fit.

At least you went with Amazon on the first card and didn't get totally screwed. Other retailers might not have as much luck with it.

It's not just Amazon. Walmart.com have these scammers too. When buying, make sure it's shipped from Amazon or Walmart.

Thanks for all the assistance everyone. I figured this could also be important awareness because this is the first time it’s happened to me.

Apparently this is also very common with CPUs, and I guess those are even harder to trace because of how similar the profile is. This sorta makes me miss being able to physically go into a store and just buy these products. At least then I know I have it and it’s legit

I don't think it is a scam, rather the wrong product has been shipped. This is very easy with third party sellers on Amazon. If they incorrectly label the goods, Amazon have no clue. The Amazon staff ship what they are given, they don't ask questions.

There is a general chinese seller problem on all platforms. Its worth checking before you add anything to the cart.

Check the reviews for that shell company. It isn't the first time.
