Fake TPA3116D2 IC on amplifier board

[dmcabs]

Hi everyone,

Wow, I just received a 100W TPA3116D2 Subwoofer amplifier from Aliexpress, hooked it up and found the output was really low.

I took the heatsink and found a nice surprise! A 16 pin chip marked TPA3116D2 but the real thing is 32 pins. What the???

Here is the link to the item I purchased:

Has anyone come across this?

File a complaint, Ali is really good when it is obviously fraud.
