Counterfeiters deliberately use fake ingredients or mislabel popular foodstuffs, like olive oil, alcohol, honey, and seafood. Pharmaceuticals are also targeted, with fake ingredients that either don\u2019t treat the ailment, make it worse, or even kill consumers. Really no market is safe. Counterfeit products are also rampant amongst consumer electronics, apparel and accessories, and tobacco too.<\/p>\n<p>The risks of the online counterfeit economy are far and wide. Every brand is affected and needs to understand the impact counterfeit has on their consumers, revenues, and reputations.<\/p>\n<p>Join CSC<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> on <strong>April 27 at 10 a.m. or 2 p.m. ET<\/strong> for a complimentary webinar about the cost of counterfeit goods in the economy.
