Is this a scam?

AMD Ryzen™ 7 7700X 8-Core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor (amazon.com)

I saw this come up when I was looking for pc upgrades last night. I saw the price and immediately ordered two (I might have been a bit drunk 😉). I took a closer look today and realized it could be a scam. The seller is listed as

dsczrgehymik and is from China. It has a lot of reviews (mostly positive) dating back a few months. I know reviews can be faked but the fact that this listing has been up for months is odd if it were a scam.

Yeah, thats a big scam.

 

Have you tried turning it off and on again? Maybe Restart it?

Take everything I say with a grain of salt. I could be just about wrong as I am right.

For sure a scam, not sure exactly how said scam works in this specific case but the tried and true "if its too good to be true, then it likely is" applies here lol.

Keep in mind that I am sometimes wrong, so please correct me if you believe this is the case!
