If you bought it from a questionable source (ebay, amazon, newegg) for a price that seemed too good to be true, it's probably a counterfeit. They're everywhere these days. Take a picture of the packaging, and you'll have to use h2testw to verify the speed and capacity.

Amazon is not a questionable source, as long as it's sold directly from amazon, and not a 3rd party seller. As for newegg, I wouldn't know, and for ebay I would never buy an SD card there.

Newegg should be fine no? They are a huge retailer.
 
How much did you pay for it? It's possible it's legit but faulty, to be safe you should verify the SD card and the payload files at every stage. Better to spend the time than risk a bricked machine.

Amazon mixes their stock with third party, they've been called out in the past but they continue to do so.

No, they sell counterfeits. Quick search at the tip of the iceberg, most of these are fake: https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?d=256gb sd card micro&PageSize=96

Most of those are from 3rd party sellers though, which is a big nono. But is even the Team Group one on the top that is sold and shipped by Newegg fake? I've never heard of them selling memory cards but I suppose that's not surprising given the business they are in.

No, the issue is that newegg and amazon and everybody else on the planet is letting this problem continue. One day there's going to be a very big class action lawsuit to make an example.
