Exposing the dreaded superfake makeup clutch

[Deco]

I hope you don't mind my teasing a bit - Those that know me here do know that I def. take the counterfeiting issue very seriously. I remember a while ago on the "authenticate this" thread there was another superfake makeup very similar this one photographed. If it wasn't for Deco coming in and helping, we might have made an error!!

Thanks Deco!!

Awww:shame:, if this is your idea of teasing, then please tease away without mercy .
It's true, Gro, I don't know anyone with less tolerance for fakes than you. You're our collective hero! And Gro's right again, counterfeiting is illegal.

By the way, there is a superfake black 04 MU on the auction site right now. Beware!

Thank you so much Deco: this thread has given us additional information about the scary superfakes!
Each one of us could be fooled, that's why asking for good pictures is always a good rule.

You're such a star Deco!! This thread is so helpful. I never knew that MU super fakes existed until I saw RDC's thread. These pictures are a great learning tool.

Wonderful thread, Deco, and I love all your detailed photos. Perhaps this thread will help persuade Sunspark's seller to refund S's money.

OY!! The leather even looks like Bal leather... is it real leather? I know a lot of the fakes are synthetic...?

Thanks for the post, i never even suspected fake MU's existed

Deco you are such an asset in our forum Thank you for this educational thread.
I didn't even know the mu was faked. I though it was too obscure for the fakers to replicate a small item.
What's next, fake boobies? LOL ("gauche" pun intended.)

^ I've totally seen fake Boobies...and I mean Planets! It's been done. The fakers will make anything they can sell.

Thanks, Deco for the fake MU vs. real MU pics!
