that's terrible, shame on the people that stolen gpus

I hope EVGA team staff can get gpus back soon

don't have evga publish the serial numbers.
 
just request the original invoice when you buy used.

Does EVGA have all the serial numbers? If so, perhaps PUBLISH THEM, so we'll know straight away who is trying to sell them and hopefully catch the criminals. Although I guess any cards under $950 don't count as stolen in California, just a misdemeanor.
 
 

 
Or implement checking for these numbers into next driver update. Maybe popup who to contact if your card is the one that was stollen.

If this truck was targeted then someone knew what was inside the vehicle. 

I fully understand why registration of stolen GPUs are not accepted, but the unaware buyers suffer and not the thieves. This is so unfortunate. Hope they can find the culprit(s) and recover all of the stolen GPUs

Wow how low can people go, especially in this day and age where serial numbers are on EVERYTHING.
 

 
Unfortunately graphics card isn't a vehicle that you have to register before using it.

What I think is worse is those who buy these cards thinking they're getting a deal and then register it
probably don't know it is stolen .....but they'll get nailed with having stolen product...
 
 
I hope they catch the scum that stole them and throw them in jail for years.
 

 
you just know these are probably on EBAY already......
 
I read a news report that thieves are targeting all the containers still sitting at the Ports also.... full of goods waiting to be trucked out to stores.

 
EBay should be advised of this. If these cards appear on EBay, I wish EBay could be held responsible for selling stolen goods. Since it would most likely be interstate sales, then those would be Federal criminal charges rather than California's $950 misdemeanor limit.
 
If EVGA can't publish serial numbers, maybe publish model numbers, if there are only a few models involved?

If a user finds that they purchased a stolen product, they should contact police and file a report so they can recover their loss from the seller.

It is not EVGA’s fault and EVGA should not be forced to warranty stolen products, so buyers should take the appropriate steps if they purchase a stolen product. I

If a pawn shop purchases stolen products, they are required to contact the police, end users are exactly the same.

 
One thing's for sure: DO NOT BUY GPUs ON EBAY or similar marketplaces - you may end up with a GPU with no warranty, and the police at your door to retrieve the stolen property.
