An RTX 4090 for $399? Beware of GPU Scams on Amazon!

Be wary of GPU scammers on Amazon

We all love a good bargain. There’s nothing like knowing that you got got a good deal, especially now that most people’s finances are a little more strained than normal. Scammers know this, and this during the latest Amazon Prime sale GPU scams have been popping up regularly to fool buyers.

These GPU scammers want to exploit the upgrade itches of PC builders. We all love a good hardware upgrade, and a new GPU is often the most impactful upgrade that you can give any gaming system.

Below are two examples that we have found, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 for $399, and an AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX for $455. These prices are too good to be true, and both come from a zero feedback seller called “congxinadianzishangwuyouxiangongsi”. These GPU listings are obvious scams. The seller aren’t even going to the effort of making a believable seller name.

AMD’s RX 7900 XTX and Nvidia’s RTX 4090 graphics cards are two of the best gaming GPUs on the market. Both are highly sought after products, and both are worth a lot more than these fake asking prices. Avoid these Amazon GPU scams.
