IIRC, those chips inside are set up to appear as 1tb drives but when you write data to it, it just keep looping writing over the last data put in. Just constantly looping like it is actually writing data.

Indeed. A Liveleak comment:

The linked article says it's a $2 128MB memory stick that shows up as a 500GB drive and only saves the last 128MB of whatever you copy to it. They're hoping people will save backups to it and not realize they didn't save properly until it's too late to get a refund.
