A Brazilian hardware distributor, Oderço Distribuidora, recently disclosed that two pallets of Zotac GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards, valued at approximately $470,000, disappeared from São Paulo/Guarulhos airport. Authorities have implicated three airport workers in the theft. One of the stolen cards has surfaced online for sale, displaying a clear serial number that links it to the missing merchandise.
The pallets, which were supposed to be transported from Guarulhos to Curitiba, were not found when they were due to be moved. CCTV footage captured two outsourced forklift drivers removing the pallets from the warehouse on September 21, and a third employee is suspected of disabling the security checks to allow the GPUs to pass.
Oderço Matos, the company's president, expressed frustration as they received no response from authorities or the airport regarding the missing items, and there was no video footage of the pallets being relocated.
