### **Product** - SkullSaints Rudra N150 16+512

**Evidence** - 2 units stolen (same buyer)

**Reported Symptom** - Missing Item

**The Discovery**

During a recent inventory audit of high-value returns from **Amazon** , our team flagged two units of the **Rudra Mini PC** that appeared to be in factory-new, sealed condition. However, upon opening the boxes, we discovered a sophisticated “Inventory Stripping” operation. The entire PC units had been removed from the packaging, leaving behind only the power adapters and mounting brackets. The perpetrator used professional heat-sealing equipment to replicate the factory plastic wrap, successfully tricking **Amazon** logistics into marking these empty shells as **SELLABLE**.

#### **The Reseal Harvest**

This case represents a brazen evolution in marketplace fraud. Instead of swapping a component or returning a defective unit, the fraudster extracted the entire core hardware of two **Rudra** units simultaneously. By leaving the heavy power bricks and accessories inside, they maintained enough baseline weight to pass a cursory check.

Because the outer seal was professionally restored, **Amazon** personnel failed to perform an internal inspection, placing these units back into the “New” inventory pool. For the next customer, this results in the ultimate “Scam” experience: receiving a perfectly sealed box that contains absolutely no computer.

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

To protect yourself from receiving a stripped unit, 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. Do not pause or edit the video until the device is out and you have opened the chassis to verify that the RAM and SSD are physically present.

- This video is your only definitive proof that the internal hardware was stolen before the package 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.
