Reminds me of a scam by the son(?) of Pablo Escobar a while back where they sold the ""Escobar"" Fold (which was obviously just a Samsung Galaxy Fold 1) for $200 or something ridiculously low like that.

Of course it sold out within minutes but the only ones that ever received their phones were influencers.

Edit: Actually looks like it's an HTC
