Last week, a website appeared promising to sell new PS5 consoles that would be bought, painted black and resold for a $ 100 prize. This will no longer be the case.
SUP3R5 started taking orders – priced at $ 649—For those black PS5s on January 8 and claimed that they sold out quickly. This should have been the point at which requests began to be fulfilled for the promised “Spring 2021” shipping date, but with the customer’s money now in the bank, just a few days later this statement was issued alleging “credible threats” to team safety.
That message was tweeted over the weekend, before the team’s entire Twitter account was taken down.
Like Techradar report, some buyers got the promised refunds, while others are still waiting.
