PS5 Scalpers claimed 1000 Xbox Series X but had their orders cancelled

So in our daily dose of karma, the PS5 scalper group that claimed 3500 PS5s were bragging on social media that they secured 1000 Xbox Series X. But then karma interfered and the website crash. The retailer in question refunded all payments and apologize to all consumers affected. What I'd recommended most retailers do is put in a captcha system so that the scalpers can't use their bots thus severely limiting their operations. But most retailers don't care as long as they get their money. What are your thoughts on this?
