Hello, as a Spaniard I know some of the adventures of the creator Alejandro (it is not the first). They created a telephone marketing company through a foundation for needy people, supposedly to serve very cheap internet to families without resources. His plan to help people with few resources was to give them a ride in the Lamborghini. To no one's surprise, after a year the company stopped providing service. The business was that although the installments were old, the modem was obligatorily sold to you and an old and cheap modem ended up costing you 300 euros when its wholesale cost would be 30 euros at most. It also has the story of the camera that they never made... I recommend everyone to run away from it and any project they undertake...

I've seen scams almost as bad as this like Intec Gaming's Warrior 64 but even those Chinese mofos put more effort into making their product look good and legit than these clowns do. We live in a world where literally anyone who feels like they have something to lose will try to do anything to make an easy buck with no regards to anyone or anything around them. They'd burn the whole world down if it meant bringing themselves up higher. Anyone reading this, take this as a friendly warning from one human being to another: do not trust any of these scumbags. Ever.

This is just disgusting. Only two days ago, it was super funny. But I really underestimated how shameless do you have to be to be a scammer. Literal charging the full amount? No waiting, no nothing? The man must be really desperate. That's just awful. We must let him know that he picked a wrong "uninformed" crowd to mess with. The hilarious Lamborghini made my day this Sunday. How stupid do you have to be to think it gets you _anywhere_ these days?..

Desperate for a quick cash in

[@Palendrome]

Uh he hit another car with the ferari door

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Haha he did

Remember when we all got a glimpse of Mark Cerny's underwear in the TV reflection when he was unveiling the PS5 Pro? If it was fine for Sony, it's fine for people that don't know how to stop Lamborghini's once they open the door.

🤣

Super Scam Project seems to have done it's job... I'm afraid this will put a very huge shit stain on the reputation and trust to any future FPGA-projects. Fucking hell...

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Exactly. Thats why I keep making these. I don’t want FPGA gaming looking like a scammers haven

[@KonaKonaKaabisteru]

@@VideoGameEsoterica Yeah. Very reminded of DKOldies in that regard...

For a guy that drives a Lambo he sure has an rundown apartment. Can't even hire proper painters that won't get paint on the TV.

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Clearly a rental

[@AntoineWG]

Why is there white paint on the back of his TV? Because he painted his wall and didn't bother to pull the TV off the wall.

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

And what kinda monster does that

[@keioly7978]

No other hobby has this much scam and shadiness going on as the Retro gaming hobby. I dont know if we can keep laughing it off and at the people who fall for it any longer. Because if nothing changes everything soon will be a mine field.

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

It’s sad it’s gotten this bad
