Simple guide on doing your research and finding newer/unsaturated companies - yeyeye - 07-23-2023
I'm sure plenty of people have thought of/used this and it may even be posted on the forum already as its not some insane secret but I couldn't find anything and im sure at least a few people will get some use out of this.
Super basic but this is what has gotten me a lot of success over the past few years since these companies will be very vulnerable to older/easier methods and can get spammed.
step 1. go to amazon or your choice of a market/retail website (ill be using amazon for my example)
step 2. find a category of items you want to se for
step 3. go to the left hand side of the screen and find the "brands" filter this will show you every company that sells the items you're looking for,
obviously don't go for the mainstream companies like logitech etc if you're just looking to send a fake pop and say give item now without extra work.
step 4. find an item/items of value that you want and google the companies website, look for standard info pertaining to what you're going to do, if you're gonna refund and say eb or dna make sure they're liable for shipments etc.
That's it. Most of these companies you find will be so easy you wont even need anything more than a fake pop and can get what you want for free with practically zero work put in, best of luck

Hey, i have a question. what do you mean with the proof of purchase? do you need to edit a fake pop of a smaller company? and send this to them? or you mean using a fake pop of like amazon and then go to the companie and say it doesnt work anymore? can you explain maybe a little more? thanks!

Presuming you find the company as op described (on Amazon) then yes a fake pop of Amazon.

So i just look for a product, say i ordered it from like a big webshop. Then i will show the manufacturer the fake pop of a big webshop and use the method EB ? or are there better methods of doing this strategy?

You are correct, I’m retarded. Will delete my comment as to not confuse anyone else!

Another good method to find out if is company is SE-able is by checking their Better Business Bureau page . Many companies respond to complaints made on BBB and it can give you an idea of how they approach SE's. You can filter complaints by "Delivery" and read their responses. Some companies openly state they issue one time refund courtesys. I always check BBB when hitting a new company

Hey so sorry about the late responses I was out of town but to answer a few things

This is a method aimed at newer or not known companies as it is super simple and will be patched by 99% of mainstream companies, if you find the company on amazon you will want an amazon receipt, a nice website for digital amazon receipts is receiptmansion if you don't already have your own generator. You'll just want to make a nice story as to why you cant return whatever product and find a way to fit the pop in your email, try to give them no room to ask questions or troubleshoot with your story. A Simple classic example story is "after (time) of usage my (product) caught on fire, i was able to extinguish it and nobody was hurt but It did almost entirely melt (if applicable) and I had to throw it away. I noticed it is still under warranty, here's my receipt (attach it) hopefully we can work something out, thanks!" obviously this is super dumbed down, you'll want to seem more genuine and do a bit more explaining but hopefully you get the gist.

so my original reason for this was just to help people discover actual companies easier. The fake pop method with amazon as long as the company seems well picked out in my experience have about a 70%~ success rate so dont be discouraged if you find a few that dont seem to work out. The benefit is these companies with be much more vulnerable to plenty of things with simplistic ways so feel free to experiment with other extremely public or recently "patched" methods.

This is true, it can also go in combo with item recalls, if a company currently is having an item recalled for a refund in my experience if you send a BBB complaint when they refer you there is a much better chance of acceptance.

Will be doing this with a few power supply companies such as fractal designs and gamemax. (Not many know them)

best of luck, haven't really tried either as I usually go for non pc related companies since they usually give me the most resistance but let me know how it goes!
