Counterfeit alcohol packaging is now more sleek,professional and harder to detect
Some counterfeiters are using ingredients or chemicals which are toxic to the human body to produce cheap fakes, with lifethreatening results.
The problem is the tools fraudsters are using to create realistic, highquality fake packaging are now available at a very low cost, which means counterfeit alcohol now looks sleek, professional and authentic – and much harder to detect with the naked eye.
To address the rise in fake wines and spirits, it is crucial that both alcohol producers and stockists take a proactive approach to educating their customers on how to identify imitations, and regularly search and highlight known counterfeit operations.
