churches of ski was one of the longest markets in eastern europe seventeen as of shops in storage and narrow passages between stalls with cheap goods. up to a million people came to the market daily. traders didn't even pretend that brands were genuine. thinks that it is. a fake dolce and gabbana of course yes where did you get it from just. from china is this bag the real thing it's almost the real one to mean almost the real thing cost seven thousand six hundred. it was easy to arrange deliveries of fake clothes to any region of russia. we'd like to open

a store in nation enough courage and put it dolce and gabbana sign up what would it be realistic to sell fakes in such a still. of course in their own way no problem. this is how fake goods make their way into russia most of them get across the border and through customs checkpoints in the far east. mostly. from the fake good spread in smaller quantities through russia's regions usually the. packages. i trade inspectors and police often raids on. to check the quality certificates and trade permits. everybody stay where

you are. during one of the they found six thousand containers with counterfeit goods worth two billion dollars. investigators never discovered the owner of the expensive car. in the summer of two thousand and nine. shut down the authorities decided to destroy the confiscated merchandise. the government will spend more than six million dollars to destroy these goods. but we're willing to pay for it to do it in order to make sure that none of these goods. ever make it to the store. they can be harmful to our citizen. children. but it could. even poison a child with. this cabinet the institute of hygiene and children's health contains

toys and even books which experts call silent killers they are poisonous and dangerous is the other the older is the most common poisonous substance there are some toys like this dish where the children. the radioactive. researches of the lamp have no pity for the toys they treat them purely as objects for toxic mechanical and radiation tests special attention is given to toys for infants russia has highest safety standards for protecting children than most other countries according to the institute's statistics fifteen percent of the toys they examine each year prove to be home for the share of counterfeit toys has not declined by as will never be able to determine with certainty the quality of toys no matter how closely they examine

them. but there are some elementary measures of precaution to safeguard your child against many diseases. when i have a cousin to coach there's something i'd like to say about toys for children under three years old do you know you've got to remember that any soft toy is a very good medium for journeys they easily penetrate the soft fabric multiply and stay there for a long time. so that's why parents should always remember that any stuffed toy must be regularly washed that's not just it must be washed cleaned i'm thoroughly drawn to. out of. this is the largest factory producing soap and detergent in eastern europe it's located near moscow and belongs to a foreign company. the original chemical formulas for soap and dishwashing liquid kept secret mixtures and liquids arrive at the factory ready for packing. around

a hundred people perform quality control. every two hours stanford the microbiological the bowler tree choose which products they want to test all the goods are examined under strict controls. must all be locked has a specific sentence consistency all these qualities so you can easily understand what it is when you see it is the white. holograms and other distinctive attributes of the packing are regularly changed but none of this completely saves this well known brand from rivals producing illegal counterfeit goods. was what would be the reason number of tricks they may not use. sometimes trade is dilutes the liquid before selling it sometimes they imitate our products. but

recently the number of such cases has been small. because our company uses only high quality packing materials and it is not always possible to find something similar. police officers have long been planning a raid on this old brick building they decided against a forceful entry from the start and chose to carry out the raid quietly. a police officer catches a worker preparing a chemical compound for counterfeit detergent red handed. the little shop producing ripoffs was just a few kilometers away from the legal manufacturer's factory. inspectors found tons of counterfeit merchandise ready to be shipped several crates with stickers and packing materials. and hundreds of sacks with the main ingredient.

it's then mixed with glue and a special compound to give the mixture its fruity aroma simple shaving razors were used to mark manufacturing dates on the packages factory officials believe it's the stamp that helps distinguish originals from fakes. products help the manufacturing date stamped in a special way so in principle it is possible to tell whether a product was manufactured by our company. i. think both have the manufacturing date stamped with a mixture of paint and. it's unlikely that a regular customer would be able to tell the difference. the twenty thousand empty plastic bottles and caps to be filled with counterfeit liquid raised many questions about how to combat fake products. matched factory standards.

investigators failed to find out where the illegal factory had acquired its containers according to one theory they were manufactured it illegal factory and then were delivered to this warehouse shady channels company could not explain where the containers came from they just didn't want the media to mention fake detergent because this will significantly decrease sales of the original product. in just a few months the illegal producing counterfeit goods cost the original brand three hundred thousand dollars paradoxically many of the customers themselves seem to unconcerned about having been sold a lower quality ripoff. it must read all over but this one has already been stable for ten minutes. detergent is very different from the real thing its quality is very low over didn't bother the customers their faith in the brand caused them to buy the goods they thought that was the intended

quality also they bought the detergent despite its unusually low price when people see it shipped prices they don't even to pay attention to quality. at the. ready when it did. the main factor which stimulates. in the counterfeit goods is the consumer's desire to buy a original products on the cheap but people can protect themselves by simply being careful when selecting toni's by northpoint cheap drugs and buying from interesting claims only from reputable retailers customers need to take action himself with such a finding flexible opponent nor enforcement officials face an uphill battle to stamp out the production and trade of counterfeit goods.
