Since the PlayStation 5’s release, the console has been targeted by scalpers online buying a multitude of units and selling them on at incredibly inflated prices. Scalpers have managed to bag several consoles at once with the use of bots, they have then gone to sell them on for as much as double their market value.

Although purchasing a PS5 requires a PlayStation Network account, it hasn’t stopped the scalpers making their way through to the checkouts. This isn’t likely to come to end unless Sony issues harsher restrictions when it comes to purchasing the consoles.
