Theres a comment that says
"It's a scam. They put a worthless gem into a cheap item and charge insane prices for them. Since noone else makes these items (Everyone who plays Dota and are into items knows that corrupted items only tracks a worthless stat, that noone wants in their items), they can create a fake market for it. They put out corrupted items at insane prices as there are no other items like these on the market, as no player would make them, as they are worthless (But if your not into Dota 2, you do not know this thus they are using your ignorance against you)...the listings on the market are all just scammers creating an atmosphere that makes you think they are worth it. But it is wortless and a scam. Noone who plays Dota will buy those items, and so you are stuck with it if you buy it."
People there confirm that its a way of scam so I sent it to him and got removed ​
