Good news: fake USB drives were rare 10 years ago.   Most claim much
higher capacity than 14 GB.

Bad news: USB flash drives have a limited lifetime.   I suspect your drive
has failed.  You might be able to recover some data with ddrescue.  You
should avoid writing on the drive as it may just do more damage.
