      The brand is Dango. My mom gave it to me for gift a few years back. I don’t know the model. I checked their website but it doesn’t have my color config anymore.

      It’s a bifold leather brown with silver metal. The one they have now is brown and gray metal.

      🤷‍♂️

      I put the OP image in a reverse image search and found the product and brand in about ten seconds.

        Why would a hailcorporate be reluctant to name the product? It feels a little Catch 22, because if they’d instantly named it that could also be interpreted as hailcorporate.

          Bait and switch. Bait you with what you saw, but hey, “look at this product over here!” The thread is almost a direct copy of how AI slop would pull you in. Show you “You’ll never believe this cool thing!” you click on it because it is cool looking, but it redirects you to a site selling similar items but not the cool AI fake thing.

            But the comment isn’t pointing you anywhere else. And the commenter didn’t make the thread. And the wallet is actually real.

              Parent comment hasn’t posted the exact wallet shown (AFAICT). And while this is getting off track for something that wasn’t entirely a serious comment to begin with, you don’t have to have the OP and commenters praising a product to be someone selling a product. Create interest, then introduce a link to a product. It always seems more honest if “I’m not sure about (thing), but I have (similar thing) you can get (link here)”, especially if original thing is potentially an AI fake anyway. I’m not really interested in pursuing this hypothetical any further, maybe I’m too cynical, but it’s too easy to push products in a way that seems innocuous.
