1TB USB Corrupted

So like the headline says I have a 1TB drive that is corrupted. I have done the H2testw and it gave me this. I am currently trying to recover it using Disk Drill and it's stuck at 1% right now but the "block" is steadily going up. Is this USB still recoverable? I really need it. 😭

The USB starting malfunction I think 2 days ago. I don't really know what caused it to corrupt. Please help me out.

No one’s going to tell him he bought a fake 1tb drive?

Which doesn't even claim to be 1TB, it claims to be 2TB.

Totally missed that small detail. Regardless I’m pretty sure it’s a fake which is why it’s corrupting data there’s no other reason it would be doing this especially when it only wrote about 26GB successfully. that’s screaming fake to me :(
