Months after a truckload of EVGA graphics cards were stolen, the shipment seems to have shown up at Vietnamese retailer Nguyn Cong Computer.
EVGA had a truckload’s worth of GPUs stolen in October 2021, and no, the stolen goods have shown up on the market. But they didn’t surface through sketchy eBay listings or Facebook Marketplace offers — they came from a well-known Vietnamese retailer.
“On October 29, 2021, EVGA GeForce RTX 30-series Graphics Cards were stolen during a shipment. The serial number you are attempting to check warranty status on is determined to be from that shipment.” The sale wasn’t in bad faith, according to Nguyn Cong Computer. On Monday, the company apologized and explained the situation, saying that the one-month warranty was a stipulation of purchase and that the cards came from a supplier known as “Hoang Minh.” The company said it had no prior knowledge of the stolen GPUs and said it would recall the sold units.
It’s still not clear who stole the graphics cards or how they made their way to Vietnam. In all likelihood, a chain of suppliers created a telephone game situation where the origin of the cards was obfuscated, leading to a well-known retailer — with tens of thousands of followers on Facebook and YouTube — selling stolen goods.
