Recently because we have Xmas and New year a big wave of FAKE Samsung SSD's are going around the world! Even SSD that really does not exist, such as 980EVO or 990EVO SSD.
Many of them also seem to fool Samsung Magician in the screenshot below, an 870EVO from 2 TB, but FAKE! But you can see it doesn't say it's GENUINE!
Best change, look also to the firmware version number; A REAL 870EVO should have firmware like SVT03B6Q, SVT02B6Q or SVT01B6Q, if you see anything else, it's fake!
Nowadays, you should be cautious when purchasing hardware online, even if it's not from Chinese online platforms like AliExpress or Temu. Major retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, and Newegg, have marketplaces where third-party sellers can sell their products.

Fake $39 Samsung 990 Pro 4TB SSD Looks Almost Real But is 7X Slower
If the price isn't fishy enough, look at the label.
