“New PS5 stock was released today, but before it went on sale, scalpers bought up the entire stock, leaving PlayStation fans with little chance to grab an order. Today, UK retailer Argos surprised PlayStation fans with new PS5 stock, but unfortunately, scalpers exploited a loophole to purchase the stock before it even went live to consumers. More specifically, and according to a new report citing several sources, scalpers were able to get their hands on the stock not just moments before it went live, but a whole day before it went live, and the loophole to facilitate this was quite simple.

According to the report, a group of scalpers by the name of Express Notify got access to the sale links before they went public, and shared them in a premium Discord server, allowing members to gobble up as much of the stock as they wanted.”

Now I will say that they were able to lock it down before they lost all the PS5 but this only shows that the difficulty to get a PS5 hasn’t gone down at all.
