I haven't watched the video. In another thread, someone pointed out that this is generally something they do after they've agreed to ship out a free replacement tv.
Went through warranty replacement for a TV and was simply asked to write "void" and a big X on the warranty sticker. Even had the option to give the almost perfectly fine TV away (I did to someone who greatly benefited from it)
Lucky you, the guy in the video was NOT that lucky. His TV was vandalized by the Samsung repairman to void warranty, after which the repair guy closed the ticket, leaving the customer with a vandalized TV on top of the original flaw.
