On May 17, the anti-counterfeiting blogger Hurricane Brothers said that they encountered a "ghost scale" in the vegetable and seafood direct sales market in Lianyungang, Jiangsu, which attracted attention.
According to the video released by the Hurricane Brothers, the blogger bought climbing shrimp at a stall in the Lianyungang vegetable and seafood direct sales market, and found that there was a problem with the merchant's scale through the detection of his own weight, "The scale on the 500-gram weight shows 630 grams, and the unit price is one to the unit price three, and the weight can be controlled at will."
When the blogger negotiated with the merchant, the merchant snatched the bag containing the shrimp and tore it and discarded it, after which the merchant wanted to remove the scale.
After the blogger approached the market management, a man came over and said, "You deleted the video for me, otherwise I won't deal with it for you", and the two sides tore apart. The blogger said the phone was snatched away.
After the blogger ran out of the market, there were still people chasing and shouting "delete the video".
