UK online PC retailer publicly rebukes claim it sent a customer an RTX 3050 instead of an RTX 4070 Ti

You've probably seen posts on social media platforms before that go along the lines of 'I ordered this product from that company, but they sent me something else.' Sometimes the tales are genuine, sometimes it's made up to garner attention, but it rarely goes any further than that. But when one Reddit user claimed that UK online store Overclockers returned a GeForce RTX 3050, when they'd sent the company an RTX 4070 Ti for RMA, the retailer turned to Twitter to vigorously and publicly deny the claim.

The story began with a short post on the PCMR subreddit just a couple of days ago, where it's claimed that the OP sent Overclockers an Inno3D GeForce RTX 4070 Ti that they'd bought from the retailer six months ago. I'm assuming that an RMA was requested and the store obliged, requesting that the card was sent to them for testing and whatnot. This is something that I've done myself, many times over the years, and I'm sure you have too.
