GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Buyer Gets an Awful Surprise Instead

A buyer in Russia ordered a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Ti from Wildberries for about $1,100, but an unboxing video showed a water bottle in the box instead of the GPU.

The report says the item was likely swapped through a prior return or theft, underscoring ongoing fraud risks in high-value PC hardware sales.

It also highlights why recording the unboxing can help support refund claims when disputes over expensive components are hard to prove.
