Wizards of the Coast Sends Pinkertons to YouTuber's House Over Leaked Magic Cards

TL;DR Summary
Wizards of the Coast, the publisher of Magic: The Gathering, sent Pinkerton private investigators to retrieve leaked collector booster packs from a YouTuber's house. The confrontation resulted in the confiscation of nearly two dozen boxes of cards and frightened the presenter's wife to tears. The presenter denies any wrongdoing and suggests that the distributor may have accidentally sent the wrong product. Engaging private investigators to retrieve stolen or missing trading cards is not a new strategy for game publishers. Wizards of the Coast confirmed the incident and is investigating the matter.
