Working on a machine that BSOD’d 3-4 times a week, couldn’t find much wrong but then I saw this. An NVME drive from a company named “OEMGenuine”.
Their website 404’s, waybackmachine says it was last cached 2 years ago, and even then it was a broken Godaddy landing page.
Found in a Thinkpad purchased from Amazon, sold by a third-party reseller who “upgrades” the devices before reselling.
Machine seems just fine/stable with a credible drive in it.
What’s the craziest shady “brand” name you’ve seen in the wild?
EDIT: NEW Discovery! One of the ancient waybackmachine cached pages previously redirected to oemgenuine.NET! It’s shoddy as hell but the .net domain is still visible today! oemgenuine.net
I think it was cheese nips that had “Real™️ Cheese” on the box where Real is the company name.

The Real Seal appears on products that are made with 100% U.S. cow’s milk
I could have sworn that it only needed to be 51%. Can’t find that now…
