Is this sd card a fake?

[juicegoose]

Got this as a gift. Person ordered it through J&R in NY. Packaging looks legit but it is a blue color not black and label looks fake. Any help would be appreciated

If you check their Sandisk website you will see a drastic difference
C an you have it sent back?

Isthe package looks tampered on the top left?

It does look a little odd - I have the 64 GB version myself and it has a very professional looking black label with red lettering and a gold stripe at the top, which is how most of their Extreme pro cards look regardless of size. That looks like someone just printed a label and slapped it on an SD card. Does the person who ordered it still have a receipt by chance? If so I'd probably contact J&R and ask them for some clarification.

The package tampering was me about to open it but I didnt. All of my cards are extreme pro and all are black with the same label. Ive heard sometimes sandisk will ship a card with electronics but i cant imagine it would look like this.
Ill be shipping it it back

I think that will probably be your best bet.

J&R.com seems to be a pretty well known place too.

I got my 64 GB card from them, never had any issues with it - so I'm sure they'll be willing to replace it for you.

Does it work? If so who cares?

I've used "fake" memory cards for years.

All fake cards work. Most are cheapest slowest cards dressed like Class 10, Hugh speed, Pro etc.
In reality they are much slower than advertised.

I don't think it's a fake. I mean, it certainly looks like an SD card to me...
