A website came out last week promising to sell brand new PS5 consoles that were bought, painted black, and then resold for a $ 100 premium. That won’t happen again.
SUP3R5 took orders – priced at $ 649– for this black PS5 on January 8th, claiming to sell out fast. This should have been the time when the orders for the promised shipping date “Spring 2021” were fulfilled. With the client’s money now in the bank, this statement was released just days later, alleging “credible threats” to the team’s security.

This message was tweeted over the weekend before the team’s entire Twitter account was deleted.
