I Fell For the Oldest Scam in the Book

Linus dives into a real‐life scam where a viewer got ripped off by “high-end” speakers that turned out to be worthless knock-offs. He actually buys the same fake gear, walks us through the unboxing, setup and first listens (spoiler: they sound terrible), and pokes holes in the scammer’s slick website and too-good-to-be-true marketing.

After exposing the bogus sound tests and shady sales tactics, Linus breaks down exactly how these cons work—fake reviews, spoofed URLs and disappearing sellers—and shares tips to help you spot the red flags before you hand over your hard-earned cash.
