A scalper group targeting next-gen console shortages has claimed it obtained more than 1,000 Xbox Series X consoles on Sunday.

On Sunday, CrepChiefNotify claimed that it’s now managed to obtain a significant amount of Xbox Series X consoles from an unnamed retailer.

“We just notified our members of a Xbox Series X restock on a very well known online retailer,” it said on its social channels.

Unsurprisingly, CrepCheifNotify has attracted negative comments from consumers struggling to obtain a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X console this month, with units sold out at virtually every major retailer and auction sites listing consoles for more than double their retail price.

In a statement issued by the group last week, it defended its actions and claimed that many of its members were struggling financially but could now “put food on the table” thanks to console profits.

On Thursday the group – which traditionally resells sneakers – suggested it would continue to target next-gen games consoles.

Microsoft’s head of Xbox, Phil Spencer recently acknowledged the difficulties consumers were facing in obtaining a Series X or S console this month and claimed the platform holder was considering new ways to implement console pre-orders.
