Three Employees Suspected in Theft of Two Pallets of RTX 5090 GPUs
Brazilian police identified three employees of Guarulhos airport as suspects in the theft of two pallets of Zotac GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards valued at about $470,000, according to the original report. The shipment was purchased in the United States by Brazilian hardware importer and distributor Oderço Distribuidora for delivery to a warehouse in Manaus, but disappeared within the airport area. A Brazilian television station later found an OLX listing for a card whose photographed serial number reportedly matched a stolen card; the listing was subsequently deleted. The report says the investigation is ongoing, the three employees remain suspects, and it does not state whether they have been charged or convicted. It also says the number of recovered cards was unconfirmed and that a truck reportedly involved had not been found. NVIDIA denied a separate rumor that it would discontinue the RTX 5090 and redirect GB202 chips to professional graphics cards.
The investigation has identified three suspects and a resale listing whose serial number reportedly matched a stolen card, providing concrete leads in the disappearance of a high-value graphics-card shipment. The report does not confirm how many cards were recovered or whether the suspects have been charged or convicted.
巴西一批旗舰显卡在运输途中失踪的调查取得进展。警方已锁定圣保罗瓜鲁柳斯机场的三名员工,他们涉嫌盗走两托盘索泰GeForce RTX 5090,货物总值约47万美元。

这批显卡由巴西硬件进口与分销商Oderço Distribuidora从美国采购,原计划运往马林加的仓库,却在机场范围内消失。公司负责人表示,政府部门和机场管理方一直未对货物去向作出解释,公司也没有看到托盘移动过程的监控录像,因此决定公开此事。
随后,巴西一家电视台在分类交易平台OLX发现一张疑似来自失窃批次的显卡,卖家要价略高于6000美元。商品照片清楚拍到了序列号,经比对与失窃显卡号码一致。广告没有留下可识别卖家的信息,相关页面之后已被删除。
消息称,其中一名受怀疑的员工可能在内部系统中将显卡登记为已经放行,使货物通过电子安全检查,随后两托盘显卡被装上一辆尚未找到的卡车。此案仍在调查,三名员工目前仅为怀疑对象,现有信息未说明他们已被定罪,也未确认失物追回数量。另有传言称英伟达将停产RTX 5090并把GB202芯片转向专业显卡,但英伟达已经否认。
