Could be literally anything. Amazon does nothing more than a weight test for inventory verification. Sellers have put bricks in a box with the correct barcode for some product send it to the Amazon warehouse where it enters the pool of inventory from multiple sellers for that product. When a sale comes through the seller's account Amazon takes a random item from the inventory pool. Chances are it won't be a box with a brick in it so it gets sold and not returned. Some other seller is going to have the brick in the box delivered to one of their customers and lose a sale and reputation from people who have no idea what really happened. And because Amazon doesn't track this stuff (not cost effective) only the fraudulent seller knows.

Amazon by ordering asphalt, using it to fix potholes, and then shipping back sand: * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mXCSMu0fH4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mXCSMu0fH4
