$12M fake Apple devices fraud case in southern California 📰
A scam involving "returning" some 16,000 counterfeit iPhones and iPads to Apple stores has resulted in five arrests.
📱 A criminal ring operating throughout southern California has been charged with stealing some $12.3 million worth of Apple products by "returning" real-looking counterfeits that didn't work to Apple Stores. The stores would then replace the non-functional clones with genuine iPhones and iPads, which were then shipped overseas.
👮 Five Chinese nationals living in the Los Angeles area were apprehended on May 30.
A similar crime ring using the same technique in 2019 "returned" over 10,000 China-made fake iPhones, defrauding Apple of an estimated $6.1 million. The leaders were eventually sentenced to between and four and five years in prison.
It's curious, how good the counterfeit had to be that the staff didn't notice that the product was fake on reception?!
