Good day MyBB

I would just like to know if anyone has heard of these guys (saw an ad on Facebook), because the reviews seems really to good to be true. Seems they can be contacted via Whatsapp only.

@Jan - Maybe MyBB should buy one and test....... :sneaky:

Orcuso

Some of the statements:

"[Power 17 Devices Simultaneously] -Featured with 6 AC Outlets, 1 12V/30A RV Port, 2 15W Wireless Pad, 1 PD 100W USB-C, 4 USB-A, 1 12V/10A Car Port and 2* 12V/10A. This All-in-One Power Station is Perfect for Use at Home, Parties, Camping, Tailgating and as an Emergency Power Back-up."

Some of the reviews:

"It’s quiet, offers pass through charging while supporting appliances, and is big enough to run my microwave, refrigerator, and my 2 plate stove"
 
Got the add as well... looks very suspect. No real specs are provided wrt battery capacity and inverter output.
So even if by all miracles you get the thing delivered to you after paying it's going to be a cheap power bank, not an AC inverter etc....

Some of the features they advertise for this R 3000 product aren't even possible with R 20k - R 30K legit Eco-Flow Lithium battery system.

HelloPeter:

"I ordered the Orcuso power monster 1.0. Only after paying the money into there account I was informed that it will come from China. I manage to get a tracing number from them. This has been weeks and nothing from them again. I think this is a scam so please3 do not order from them."

So even if they are legitimately trying to make some kind of a drop shipment model work, they are not doing it very well.
 
Got this on whatsapp from them:

Exactly my thoughts , and why no resellers in JHB , Pta ? why only one shop in a town (Pella) nobody has ever heard off in the northern Cape? Makes no sense why it would be situated there

location doesnt really matter, that could be where they live and ship from there, location isnt the issue, the overspecd hardware for scam pricing is.
 
Even me i deposited the money and until today mo delivery its a scam

Hi. They are a scam. I ordered one, made payment and got a tracking number but not sure how they did that. Got confirmation of a delivery and then everything went dead. Facebook add is off and whatsapp stop working. Definitely a scam. I need more places to report this. If someone can help. Thanks.
