benfica_77 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 They even used the Spanish blue seal to make it look more legit. Beware.... 4A412BD53F50CC8378F09C0EDAFDD1AD_video_dashinit.mp4 B7406EE65103DA732C55D451EAB81FAB_video_dashinit.mp4 F7494381E8D8A8FE266D240B867A0495_video_dashinit.mp4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woody Hayes Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 The local goverment is probably aware of this scam and the top guy gets his cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightonCorgi Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 So, who is going to buy Cohiba's from the Chinese based web retailer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCgarman Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 So they are making counterfeit Rolex and other Swiss watches, counterfeit Gibson guitars, counterfeit Hermes and LV handbags and now perfecting counterfeit Cohiba cigars. I'd like to know where and what tobacco is procured for making these! I don't buy Cohiba and never have, but lots of ignorant buyers are gonna get burned royally. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salomones Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Spanish Seal on wrong place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Thanks for sharing that. I see those videos doing the rounds on Facebook. Good looking fakes alright. Spain has updated its seal. It's not blue anymore and there are no holograms on it. It's just a matter if time though until that gets faked too. I have some of the new seals but can't get pictures at the moment. Just tested Covid positive this morning and isolating in my office for the week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife very kindly dropped a box up to my office door. These are wide Churchills I bought in Spain last month. No blue seal on this though plenty of those still around. This is on a box of wide Churchills. The silver edge has holographic writing, I can’t quite read what it says. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cigcars Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 That earlier statement is a good question: what tobacco's are they using to pass for Cohibas??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China grows a hell of a lot of cigar tobacco but also imports large quantities from the DR. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoliDan Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Maybe they will relieve some supply constraints. Most people arent detectives or aficionados. Should be able to dupe a lot in the Asian market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westg Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Well it appears they won't have any real difficulties moving them on. Maybe then they can buy some tables and benches so they don't have to package on the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
