How much trouble would I be in if I unknowingly buy an Engineering Sample Intel Processor?

None, even if you buy one knowingly.

They just take it back or threaten to take you to court if you refuse to return it. Since all ESs belong to Intel, it's easy to prove and the court would order you to return it. Say you have it locked in an impregnable safe, you refuse to give it up. They find you in contempt of a court order and you go to prison.
Though generally nothing happens

If I contact Intel, would they take it off my hands and offer me a brand new one?

>and offer me a brand new one?
Lol no
It's their property, doesn't matter if you were stupid enough to buy it off someone.

If this idiot didn't get in trouble, you'll be fine. They're mostly interested in stopping the people doing the leaking from the inside.

What's going on there? That processor wasn't even out when he fried it.

He toasted an engineering sample.

What you do after that other than suicide? Why even live?

Complete lack of self-awareness and way too much fucking money.
