In my experience essentially all amazon fraud returns that go into circulation end up getting a free replacement.

If you're not returning a brick in place of a GPU and instead return the actual hardware, the next guy simply gets a DOA that looks like a DOA, quacks like a DOA, and returns like a DOA for another one... so the odds of this causing an actual issue for a normal human is extremely low.
