I decided to do this thread after seeing a guy ask how to spot a fake graphics card.
I will start the ball rolling by saying that many years ago when i was a pc noobie i went to a computer fair near me in a music venue and nearly got ripped off.
Complete computer systems at stupid prices and component's in plain cardboard boxes with just say gtx 900 wrote on them '
Even as a noobie it was obvious that their was a lot of dodgy stuff on sale.
Funny thing is i could have been an under cover trading standards guy because just by coincidence the venue way raided the following week.
Ok so back to the thread title.....
Have you ever unknowingly bought fake computer parts or anything to do with pc's , what happened and what did you do about it.
