In August 2014, Louis Vuitton reported a Shanghai based website selling fake Louis Vuitton merchandise to the Shanghai Public Security Bureau. The police investigated the company, and identified them in the end of 2014. The company had about eighty or ninety staff, most of them university graduates. There were nine core members who held equity, and a three person management team. The management team had all graduated university in the eighties and all drove Porsche Cayennes.
On April 1, 2015, the Shanghai PSB arrested a Shen suspect, a Huang suspect, a Miao suspect and 25 others, and seized 1.75 million Yuan in cash. The suspects confessed to their crimes after questioning.
The company produced pop-up ads on foreign websites and opened more than 200 websites on 60 servers. The websites sold fake designer bags, watches, jewelery and more to customers in the United States, Canada, South Korea, the United Kingdom, Greece and other countries. The company had been in business since 2009 and had netted over 700 million Yuan in sales. The website would sell Louis Vuitton and other designer bags for 1000 to 2000 Yuan.

Westerners are obsessed with fakes. Fake tan, fake breasts, fake clothes. Many Chinese exploit the western taste for fakery and make good money from it too. Good luck to them.

Who are you trying to fool? None of the examples you quote are malevolent in nature, the consumers are also fully aware of what they are buying. Compare to poisonous milk, wall plaster medicine, gutter oil, opium-laced noddles, hospital discarded cotton balls filled blankets, which not only are deceitful but also malicious, your excuse is both lame and typical of mainlanders' ruthless nature, shifting the blame to the victims. This is also one reason the whole world, en masse, looks down upon mainlanders, and anyone with this despicable mentality.

Dare point out the lies? Too difficult for your IQ? LOL You just proved you didn't even know how to tell the difference between a usernamed comment and an annoymous one. Guest2301262 is my username, genius. 'kunt...' is just as superficial if not more laughable. It also proves your ignorance in something as simple as this --- it is the substance that counts. Go back to kindergarten and start over again. LOL

How on earth could a company selling fake merchandise get so big without drawing attention to itself? Where are the regulations? As a foreigner, I can't even take a piss without producing my passport! Talk about mass corruption.
