Console scalping with the PS5 and Xbox Series X this month went pretty out of control, with people listing units on eBay, Craigslist, and StockX for well over $1,000,000.

But as the pandemic drains grifters' energy levels, they've become so lazy they started honestly just posting *photos* of PS5's online and listing them for thousands of dollars. And from the look of it, some desperate gamers are taking the bait.

It's yet to be confirmed that one of these sales has actually gone through, but bids have definitely been placed. While all these posts do say they're only selling a photo, some suggest you might get the actual console with it, which is kinda scummy.

Seeing which idiots don't read anything before putting down a couple thousand dollars. Is that the free market at work? I guess it is.
