Surprised to see Systemax/TigerDirect and the Fiorentino brothers, who were convicted of embezzlement, security fraud and tax evasion, wasn't mentioned. Perhaps because they didn't outright scam customers. (although I do think they with run-by-night 0-support AV crapware we bundled with everything we could as a value-added service, or pointless "optimization" services that did absolutely nothing). Don't have much to add here beyond the fact that I worked there in the 2012-2013 strech and a little beyond. Run about as spartan as could be, no LP but millions of dollars worth of equipment that were there ripe for theft and fraud with nearly zero oversight. (fraud was rampant in the store - can honestly say I never engaged, but I was offered the opportunity multiple times).
