In recent days in the UK there have been several reports of delivering miscellaneous items instead of the video game console.

In recent days, internet users in the UK who bought the Play Station 5 (PS5) on Amazon have reported on social networks that they have been “scammed” by the virtual store after receiving several unsolicited items instead of the console.

This is the case of the journalist and TV presenter Bex April May, who claims to have received a notification that her order could not be delivered; however, hours later he arrived. To his surprise, he found that the package he had received, instead of the console he had ordered, contained a file electric fryer.

Another buyer claimed to have received a grant of 5 kilograms of rice, although the box actually contained a large bag of bulgur, a wheat derivative widely used in Middle Eastern cooking. “When I opened the Play Station 5 that I had ordered from Amazon I found this! Someone replaced it with rice!”, You can read in his Twitter entry.

Similarly, a Twitter user identified as Sam Felts received a electric fryer in a package which, according to the complaint, had been opened at some point before being delivered. Also, another of the scammed people sarcastically thanked the virtual store for delivering cans of dog food.

Part of the annoyance for buyers, as they say, is that they won’t be able to get their console anytime soon, as they’ve run out of Amazon inventory.

Given the allegations, the company owned by the tycoon Jeff Bezos has issued a statement assuring that they are already “investigating exactly what happened” and that they are contacting customers affected by this situation, some of whom have offered a coupon. slightly higher value $ 6.50.
