🔥 2021 Review: FuzzBug/BuzzBugg/ElectriZap/FlashBeam Camping Mosquito Zapper. SCAM ❌ or Real ✔️?

Is the FuzzBug BuzzBugg a Scam? In this video, I put this portable camping mosquito zapper to the test and reveal the truth about the FuzeBug!
Note: This description contains affiliate links which means that if you use them to buy, I may earn.
This device is a scam and does not live up to the claims that the ads put out. It is marketed un many different name brands and they are constantly rebranding it with new ones. Here are the names I am aware of.
FuzzBug
BuzzBugg
ElectriZap
FlashBeam
ZapTek
MAXvolador
It is however not a bad flashlight and camping light. FuzzBug sells this device for $60 but you can get it off Amazon or eBay for only $22, to use as a camping light. Considering it is battery-powered and solar-charged it might be worth $22 for a camping/flashlight, but as a mosquito zapper, it is worth nothing. I do not recommend this product and am providing these links merely as a courtesy for you to check this product out on their ad pages.

Thank you for the help!

[@kaiadownunder3925]

Those fancy ads are back in 2023 now called the Flashbeam Zap

[@TyRizzoPeace]

I was seconds away from buying, but I just can’t buy anything without reviewing it. And you’ve done a fantastic job of doing the ground work. THANK YOU!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thank you so much!

[@SkyBrigidRain]

Same! I was about to bookmark their page to buy later! It's just like that "Lit Box" scam!!! I bought a literally no name chinese power bank that actually works great. Pretty bad when the chinese knock off beats the hell out of your own product lol. I wonder if youtube is going to start censoring people exposing scams!!!

[@Marsalis_CW]

smart man

[@joeb7291]

ya funny and too gullible, all I saw in this video was a lot of hand gestures and a lot of talking at no point in time did he open the device and of course if you buy it from a different website it's not going to say the name brand because you're buying it from a different website its not the best review i seen. also what kind of credit card do u have helps a lot. if u buy something and its defective u can always get your money back

[@nothingbutgadgets]

@@joeb7291 You did not watch the video very carefully then. I stated quite clearly that I bought it right from the fuze bug website. I am starting to wonder if all you people that keep saying this same thing are not working for Fuze Bug and are intentionally misquoting my statements to cast doubt on this honest review.

[@DavidCurrey4]

Four things caused my guard to go up concerning these things. First, the claims seemed extravagant. Second, when I tried to find reviews, all the articles I found on the internet claiming to be reviews were in fact advertisements, not reviews, until I found this video. Third, I tried to find evidence of the award that the contraption supposedly won, and couldn't find any evidence of the award by the name given. Fourth, the contraption is not sold on Amazon, which always has reviews of all products. I imagine they didn't want to sell it on Amazon because they didn't want honest reviews to be posted on it.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thanks. Actually, I did find it on amazon and ebay, but under very different names. I put warning links in the description to these product pages so people would know that it was the same thing. Please do not buy this item through those links, they are just there to demonstrate that this same product is being sold under many names on different sites. Unless, of course, you just want a really funky-looking rechargeable flashlight/camping light. LOL! Side note: Last night (4th of July), the mosquitoes were so bad on my deck that we could not even go out to enjoy fireworks. They were unbearably thick. I had company over and I was showing them the FuseBug. I stuck it on my deck for two hours where the mosquitoes were so thick people were running into the house to get away from them. In two hours, it caught ONE mosquito. Not a surprise, but still funny to me considering what the claim about this product is.

[@osowers6755]

KZbin has ads that say kills mosquitos "within 6 minutes", well was that in a glass jar or in a bathroom or outside and did you spray attractant on it :) ? How can you prove that, where is any true data on this thing? To me that is a total baloney claim. The Fuze Bug website just bombards you with advertisement lines about how great it is rather than quality specs or data. The lower sections of the webpage is made up like smoke and mirrors to keep people pumped up about it. That to me shows they have to prop it up, it cannot just stand on it's own and do what it says. In addition, all the reviews on the website are dumb statements about barbequing and being outdoors and having fun rather than the product and they are 5 stars which we all know is not real to life. Once I saw that I knew it was fake and I would not buy. I also went to Amazon to see what people said and I did not find it there.

[@johncuervo3019]

Mosquitoes aren't attracted to light. Heat and carbon dioxide. Had to search it after the long ass add

[@Losshe]

To me a big giveaway was that in the add they claim that they were sold out immediately, then the guy tripled the production, and now they offer a 50% off welcome back discount within the next 4 hours. I've seen a lot of scam products use this method

[@atticus13fault]

The ad I saw was called Buzzbug, but same story! It was a college student that was allergic to mosquitoes so he invented this thing… glad I reviewed it before getting one for the cabin lol Thank you for the review!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thank you for commenting @atticus13fault. I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed the video.

[@shybuttafly]

I just saw that ad on fb & had to look up reviews. This is the first video i saw

[@stormyd7593]

The ad I saw called it a bug bulb

[@Sssssssslf]

I got the _exact_ same Ad except they called it the 'mosqinux flashbeam' in the one I watched lol

[@amiepie9862]

Just seen an ad for it but it was called Buzz Krush and it was a Texas farmer who created it because his daughter had been bitten by mosquitoes 30 times and decided to do something about it 🤣 it’s also 50% off

[@Nic_ole_]

Oh THANK GOD! I'm a single mother trying to make ends meet and living in Florida where we get mosquitoes in the house that bite us all night. It's getting really bad with over 10 bites each daily! And I was about to pay $40 for this because all I can find are good (fake) reviews. THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video. 👍👍

[@beasthaven1571]

Did you find any good bug zapping replacement?

[@dionst.michael1482]

Raid coils work if you can handle the smell.

[@abcdefghca]

Buy cotton mosquito nets for bedding. Natural way to stop mosquitoes from entering the net and your bed.

[@hawk120]

I was minutes away from ordering this. So glad I found your review!!! Keep up the great work dude! The old adage "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is" applies here.

[@ardenp8371]

I purchased one without doing any research. The ads really bamboozled me lmao can't believe I fell for it. I knew the moment I looked at the box that I had been swindled. I emailed the company to ask for a refund and they refunded 75 percent of what I paid without having to return it. I honestly feel lucky to get anything back after seeing how shady the advertisements were. The customer service was really fast too. Initiated the refund within one hour of me emailing them. I gotta say I still think this deserves a lawsuit. After looking at their website it seems they have their bases covered. The fine print says something along the line of we reserve the right to say whatever we want about the product even if it's a lie. They shouldn't get away with it though. They paid Google to make sure the right things show up when searching. A lot of fake reviews that are basically ads and a lot of them are designed to intrigue the skeptical consumer. Despicable business practices.

[@georgeplagianos6487]

Thanks Arden for filling us in I can't believe these companies actually get away with the fine print and making some sort of sweetheart deal with Google there's a huge company like that both been doodling us along with this mosquito-less killer light. This and all those swamp cooler so-called air conditioners have done the same thing lied to us lie to us made us think this was the best thing since sex was created LOL. And there's nothing the FCC or any other consumer products organization can monitor these outright lies and cheating the public I don't know how much this unit cost. But they'll swamp coolers are at least $89. Nothing could be done about it I can't believe the criminal element that comes across so virtuous with these commercials thanks for filling Us in stay well everybody stay safe

[@benadineoneill1417]

Yea, I totally got scammed. Found this video to figure out exactly what I found out. I paid $40+$10 shipping. Ugh, I can’t believe I fell for that. Thanks for sharing this man

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Please try to get your money back. They will give you at a partial refund in most cases. It is worth a try.

[@mattlindstrom395]

I never comment, but once I saw your video I had to throw some praise your way. You got straight to the point, you told us it's a scam as soon as possible without making us watch the end of the video, very appreciative! Liked and subscribed! :)

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thanks for the sub. Glad you liked it. I generally try to give the ending first because I know people just want an answer. I hope you watched the video at least to the spider part. People get a kick out of that part

[@lordbwithu3105]

HUGE THANKS, I was desperately hoping it would work, but like you I knew it was suspect from the ad. I was almost willing to gamble the 39 bucks to try it, but thanks to you I don't have to.

[@melissaspence6445]

Thank you for posting this! I saw the same ad you’re talking about.

[@terrieauzenne9562]

I was seconds away from getting scammed. Thank you. The ad I saw was a retired science teacher, 79 years old invented it.

[@noreenluginbuhl673]

Thank you for your review. Like many others, I was very close to buying one but the other reviews didn't seem like real reviews.Glad I found yours!

[@tanishamckinley5259]

Thank you for this review. I just saw an add but instead of Fuze bug it’s called Keilini bug zapper. But it looks exactly the same as the one in your review. I’m always skeptical about online purchases and always look for other reviews and your was the only real one I found that actually tested the product. Thanks for your sacrifice to help others not get scammed.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. Glad it helped

[@rayhan9470]

Thank you for this video! The ad was definitely convincing. Your video was EXTREMELY VALUABLE!

[@CheriBenIesau]

I tried them. Major regret. After about 48 hours two mosquitoes died, probably by running into it instead of being zapped. Won't hold a charge. But, they did refund me.

[@diamondhair11]

They would not refund me....... You just asked for a refund? I paid $39 + $10 shipping, so I have a $49 flashlight.

[@cheriben-iesau4577]

@@diamondhair11 Yep, full refund. I suspect different sellers have different refund policies. I've seen the same item peddled by numerous places. We ended up buying a Dynatrap® which works pretty good and has lasted a year now. We had one of the mosqioto magnets that uses propane and it was almost $400 but quit working after the first season. Sorry you couldn't get a refund--I don't know what's more aggravating: mosquitoes or skammers.

[@glowaves]

Thanks for saving us money. It's amazing how well these advertising experts can manipulate Google so well that you have to dig really deep for objective info.

[@TwitchCaptain]

Just saw the ad. Thanks for the thorough review!

[@bleo1017]

Right about the name. I came here after googling reviews for ElectriZap and as you describe in the video, the ad is what really got me. Very well done and yep it was that college kid. So different product name but as you say same product. I am at my wits end with mosquitoes so I am glad I saw this video. I'll just stick to my normal treatments and hope for the best.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Yes, it is on its fith name this year. ElectriZap was last year's name, but they are still running ads for it. The year before it was the BuzzBugg, and before that it was the FuzeBug. This year it is going by two new names. They are calling it the BugBlast Pro, and the ZapTek

[@srfrpnk01]

Great job with the review. Just like everyone else I saw the ad as well and I thought it might be a great idea to buy it. Also I like the little spider part too.

[@cosmo3667]

Wish I had seen this before buying it. Completely agree with this review>had it out fo the first time on the weekend at the Cottage and not a single mosquito did it kill, or attract to it, Interesting could not find a site that sells this product that allows for reviews and now I know why. Do agree that the flashlight strobe and camping light is very good. I also had this product out on the sun all day and it barely lasted a few hours on the sunlight charge had to recharge it vis the USB cable. DO NOT buy as a mosquito killer does not work

[@capdcrusadr88]

Brought here by that same ad. Thanks for the review! Loved the spider just strolling through 😅😂

[@cindycampbell4994]

Wow!! I just watched the exact ad a few minutes ago about this!! and decided to research about it. thank goodness I found your review!! Ty!!

[@TacoDea1er]

Thanks for the video. I was at the Checkout window for this device, but i was so skeptical of this item that i needed to look into this more.

[@karlharvymarx2650]

I had my ad blocker off for a day and saw the ad for this thing this morning. I agree it is a good ad, meaning I really wanted it to be true because who doesn't love the college kid living the American dream theme? But then I noticed they were claiming it emitted precisely the right color of UV light to attract mosquitoes, but what they were showing looked like a rainbow of LEDs decorating a medicinal herb vaporizer. One would probably be better off partying with stoned mosquitoes who keep forgetting they were trying to satiate their munchies. As an aside, I know more legit bug zappers use black lights, but why on earth would night feeding insects be attracted to a color of light that is absent at night? Shouldn't the little flying vampires use thermal infrared? Maybe their eyes would have to be too big for their heads? Anyway, thanks for making the video.

[@rafaelbayona9299]

Thank you! I was one click away from getting it, but my gut told me to look for reviews. You're right, the ad and the history are so good, and the marketing is so good that it is TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. Glad to help.

[@theoriginalThud]

Thank you!! I came here for this review. Also, love the spider bit - Lol!

[@thesenior2279]

Harbor Freight has one like this in gray for $12. No solar panel, but a 4hr charge and it works for crazy hours. Worked GREAT in the tent. Slept with the blue light on hanging from the top of the tent and we didn’t get bit once. It killed all the mosquitoes that’s got it. There was prolly ~20 dead ones and a couple larger bugs dead inside. Think it has to be in an enclosed space.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thank you for commenting @thesenior2279!

The good news is that I saved the order confirmation info that had a customer service number, , called it, and filed a complaint. They immediately refunded $113 to my Paypal account. It isn’t the $123 I paid, (they call the difference a restocking fee), but it is a heck of a lot better than losing the entire amount.

[@YourLastWish]

Wish I had watched this before I bought 2. Like he said scam. I bought then to protect our newborn from mosquitos that were getting in. I turn on 4 hours nothing. I make dinner and come in. 1 followed me in. 5mins later it flew passed the worthless junk and it was on my babies head. . I set the other 1 outside for few hours. Killed nothing.

I actually pulled it out again tonight after forgetting about it from last fall and after just an hour or so it's covered in bugs.

I am so glad this video was helpful. I am not allergic to mosquito bites, but I have had malaria nine times, so they have a special place of dislike in my heart. I hope one day there is a good solution for them.

I'm a mosquito magnet. I get bitten in just the few seconds it takes to put the garbage out. I'm left with huge, itchy welts that last for days and even have some scars on my arms, legs and neck from all the scratching of the worst ones over the years. Ironically, I love the outdoors-walking in a park, hiking, biking, and just sitting on the back deck on a nice evening. The mosquitos make these things hard to enjoy, so I was interested in these lamps. Bought 2. Haven't tried them yet, mosquito weather is only now just starting here, but this review has disheartened me. Oh well. The lamps are at least good, rechargeable outdoor lanterns and have a strobe feature which will come in handy for Halloween, as we're big Halloween fans around here.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. Yes, it is good feeling to know that many thousands of people have not fallen victim to this scam as a result of this video. When I made it, I had no idea how many people would watch it. It was a risk I took at the time that has really been more than worth it. I have never actually done another video like this one when I buy a scam product from an ad due to extreme financial difficulties. I pretty much lost everything last year and was technically homeless (not on the street, but without a house of my own to live in). Things have improved this year a little, but I have had to almost abandon making KZbin video as there simply is no income in it due to changes in the way KZbin works now. I still try to put out content when I can though.

You are very welcome. I am in the process of producing an updated version of this product, so stay tuned.

[@Sheikyerbouti8]

Thank you SO MUCH! I almost fell for this.

[@Kortlandt]

I sorta figured it was a scam but had to be sure. Thanks for the info and salute to your sacrifice.

[@monicadriggers1682]

Love that this review exists. The ad looks like a scam, but we're all so desperate to get rid of the skeeters that we'll try nearly anything. Thank goodness I didn't spend the $!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

I am glad you saw this video and did not fall for this scam.

[@armytech8098]

Thanks, my dude. I figured, but I couldn't find a real review. My wife gets eaten up with mosquitos so I was hoping. Oh well. Thanks for the info.

[@Spongypizza]

Thank You so much for the review I looked at the ad and I had 10-15 mosquito bites and tons outside so I bought it hopping it would work it did not come in the mail yet but now I look and see the reviews and now know its a scam so I will try to get a refund. but Thank you for making this video and hopefully getting my money back.

[@tiffanydavis9164]

Thank you! I was surely going to buy it. I live in the Mississippi Delta and I’m desperate for anything that’ll work! 😢

[@nothingbutgadgets]

I know how you feel. I wish it was true and did what it claimed too.

[@llnmrgn]

I received this today and bought it to see if it would work for a gnat infestation (which I see from one comment that it does work)...BUT...the instructions don't say how to 'remove the inside to clean'...from what I remember from the ad, the inside is supposed to come out for cleaning! Thanks for any help! Thank you for your video...I hope it works!! Next time, I'll look for reviews before I buy!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

It supposed to be water resistant and can be sprayed off with a water hose. I have never tried it, but I have seen videos of people doing it.

[@henrymuasml]

thank you for your clarification and courage :)

[@grace-mayhewson233]

Love how you get right to the point, great videos

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thank you for commenting @grace-mayhewson233. I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed the video.

[@j23f.76]

Thanks so much for the review!

[@sneakyfox5]

We do appreciate it! Thank you! I saw that add too, very believable. I was looking to get this, glad I didn’t.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. I am so glad you enjoyed it.

[@ReddCharlie]

Thanks for the review! And I loved Lucas the spider 🕷️

[@ahwayzcool4630]

I was thinking about getting this because of the very convincing commercial. I always do research before I buy questionable products. Glad I found this review before I wasted money. 🙂

[@nothingbutgadgets]

I am glad you found it. Thanks for commenting.

[@Caution40404]

Not gonna lie... The ad convinced me and I saved their webpage. Glad I search for reviews. Thank you very much, sir! Much appreciate your honesty and help.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. Glad to be of service.

[@GMAMEC]

I always question those type of YT commercials. Thanks for sharing.

[@doctoralgy8186]

Thanks man, your work is much appreciated

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure!

[@lizacarolinabrown1850]

This one is the same one I I almost bought two! I was seconds away also. And it had a whole different name Electrizap. Whatever happened to the Better Business Bureau how come we can’t stop these deceiving ads I know all advertising is somewhat deceiving but these ones that really make up a whole story!? Thanks for your video.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

The sad truth is the company running these ads is in China and the BBB is only for USS based companies. And they change their name constantly, so if you manage to shut one down today, it will be back under a different name tomorrow. Eventually we can only hope for some sort of international treaty to deal with these global scams.

[@horsense2]

Super appreciate this. It was a good ad, but I won’t buy that stuff unless I look offsite for more info first. Thank you!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. So glad it helped.

[@XxGOTARxX]

Thanks for the review. I knew it was to good to be true. Wanted it for my wife because the bites affect her really bad. 😞

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Yeah. I wish it were true too. I hate mosquitoes with unmeasurable passion.

[@Peter1634]

Almost bought that. Thanks for the review.

[@Durkoola]

Thank you for this. I made a purchase after visiting the ad from KZbin, but not before reading some reviews. After submitting my purchase I looked at more reviews and noticed how copy-paste they all seemed. Looked for a video review and here I am. Immediately called to cancel my order and to nobodies surprise, it didn't give any identifier as to what company I'd just called and the person on the other side of the phone sounded much like that of notable scamming... lineage. Sorry if that sounds insensitive. Letting my card service know to watch out for me and not let these payments go through.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. I hope you get your money back. Good thinking calling your credit card company.

[@ThailandThomas]

Thanks for the review. I saw the ad and I was wondering if it was a scam

[@pierangelopacini7082]

Thanks for making this!

[@cg1tube]

Thank you so much for doing this!! The add was so convincing!!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. I just recently made a REACT video for the ad you might find funny. I cover many of the tricks the pull to deceive you in it. Here is the video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6qZcoSGeJKLZ7s

[@MusicalMali]

This is an EXCELLENT video, thank you!! The spider ending is HILARIOUS!! :)))

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thank you for commenting @MusicalMali. I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed the video.

[@rjaybruhh]

*_I just received mine today. It said it is one of the best ones to get today. I saw that it was $120 but it said on sail for 50%. So I got it and I'm going to try to out today! There have been mosquitos in my house since my uncle has been taking in plants from the backyard. There have been mosquitos in the house hence the moist soil... I'm going to hang it in the hallway and hope that it works. There are 6 of us in the house and we definitely have gotten multiple mosquito bites._* UPDATE: I should have looked at this review first.... *_I did spent money so I might as well leave in on and hope that it does catch some mosquitos flying in the hallway or around the house._*

[@JosephusAD70]

Great vid. Thanks. These criminals should be prosecuted for spreading so many lies. I assumed it was a scam but the commercial was so compelling. It makes me angry seeing what these miscreants will do to defraud the gullible. Thanks again!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

I am glad to do it. I only hope more people see this video and are not fooled.

[@JosephusAD70]

@@nothingbutgadgets Spending almost $70 and the many hours to produce this video just to help those who would likely get scammed, is exemplary. It’s people like you who make this country great. Thanks again. But I truly don’t understand why these scammers cannot be prosecuted for fraud.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

@@JosephusAD70 It is very upsetting, but it is a sad fact of reality in the world we live in. The issue with prosecuting these scam companies is that they are in foreign countries. The US has consumer protection laws, but those laws only apply to the US. The US has no authority to enforce them outside of our borders. The internet, however, has no borders. So that is the problem. We live in a world that is divided by sovereign borders, but we are interacting as a global community without borders on the internet. The US cannot send the police to China or Kenya to arrest a scammer. The most they can do is ask that country to go after the scammer. However, from an economic standpoint, scammers are good for foreign countries, because they bring in billions of dollars in revenue to the country's economy. In a lot of cases, the scamming is done with the country's blessing, or it is officials within the government that are actually heading up the scamming operations. That is the sad reality of the situation. The best we can do right now is to make wise choices about the products we buy. The internet is a powerful tool. Like any powerful tool, it can be used for good or bad. Some use it for evil; I try to use it for good.

[@JosephusAD70]

@@nothingbutgadgets I assumed incorrectly that this was a U.S. based product. I never considered that it was coming out of China or India. I must admit that this was one of the best fraud ads I’ve seen. I rarely watch more than the obligatory 3-4 seconds but this time I was intrigued to the point I checked it out. And yes, the internet can be a blessing or a curse. LoL Again, thanks for all your time. Keep up the great work.

[@maestre2144]

Thanks for your honest review….I will definitely look for a different unit

[@learnshareevolve1842]

Great review thanks!!

[@stevesanders9770]

How do you clean this thing? Actually hung overnight on our patio and had a dozen dead bugs on each. I poked around with a tooth pick to remove bugs. Not easy. Maybe a small brush, just have to find one around the house.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

They clean they are waterproof and can be washed with a sprayer.

[@stevenfoster5737]

Originally I thought this video was another version of the scam. Thanks for the review. We camp a lot and I was considering it because my wife and daughter get eaten alive. You saved me $$. Job well done. The spider commentary is brilliant. 🤣🤣

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thanks.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Unfortunately, I have not found any device that actually works, and I have tried many, all the way up to hundreds of dollars for devices claimed to be used on military bases. There some devices that do attract mosquitoes, but they use propane and chemical attractant s to work, and even then, do not eliminate enough mosquitoes to be worth their cost. On a side note, I just order a couple more similar devices that I saw new ads for. I will be testing them and doing reviews for them in the near future.

[@coondogtheman]

I have an as seen on TV version of this. Not sure if it work but I stuck a screwdriver into the grid when it was on and it made a good spark.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

[@Freedom-zb2qu]

Good one I was about to buy one saved me from getting scammed keep it up mate

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. Glad it helped you out.

You're amazing! I love this video!!! THANK YOU!

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Thank you. I am so glad you enjoyed it.

[@sabatinoconstruction]

Thank you!! The ad was really good like you said and I thought it was a scam too. Thank you for saving us money!!! 😊

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. So glad it helped.

[@sallyp1570]

I wonder whether it would at least attract skeeters and keep them away from me even if it doesn’t kill them?

[@nothingbutgadgets]

Nope

[@terrylee3232]

I'm glad I saw this because I was thinking about getting one thanks

[@nothingbutgadgets]

My pleasure. Glad to help.

[@lynette4435]

Thanks for saving me money! That ad was good, but it said it was “Buzzbug.” These fly by night scam companies are bs.

[@nothingbutgadgets]

I am so glad you watched my video before buying this scam device. So far, I have seen this device go by the names, FuzeBug, FuzzBug, BuzzBug, and ElectriZap. Who know how many more name they are marketing this device under.
