**Product** - SkullSaints Agni Mini PC (16GB RAM + 512GB SSD)

**Evidence** - Entire Agni unit replaced with an ancient, rusted, generic PC

**Reported Symptom** - Incorrect item received / Total product replacement

### **The Discovery**

This return from **Amazon** is a extreme example of total product substitution. Instead of receiving our compact, high-performance **Agni Mini PC** , the box was returned with a completely different, generic, and ancient computer. The fraudster didn’t just steal the internal components; they kept the entire **SkullSaints** device and replaced it with a piece of rusted electronic waste.

### **The Total Device Swap Scam**

In this scenario, the scammer substituted a modern, high-value workstation for an old, corroded machine they likely had lying around. As seen in the evidence photos, the substituted device is covered in rust and dust, representing a 100% loss of the original hardware. This is a sophisticated attempt to exploit **Amazon** logistics by returning a package that matches the general weight and “feel” of a computer.

### **Mandatory Action: Record Your Unboxing**

To protect yourself from receiving “e-waste” instead of your order, we advise all users to **record a full unboxing video every time you receive goods.**

- Start the video by showing the shipping label and the intact seals.

- Use one continuous shot. Record as you open the box and clearly show the device to ensure it matches the **SkullSaints** branding and form factor.

- This video is your only definitive proof that the entire product was substituted before it reached you.

### **The Integrity of Direct Orders**

These specific item-switching and “hollowed-out” issues do not happen with direct orders placed via [electroniksindia.com](http://electroniksindia.com). When you order through our website, we ensure that your unit is pulled from a “Clean Inventory” pool that is strictly isolated from marketplace return cycles. This ensures that the components inside your machine are exactly what were installed during our final QC, with zero risk of receiving a unit that has been tampered with by a previous scammer.
