Customer Reviews
In the crime world, counterfeit products are common and created by criminals in order to earn a substantial profit. In the world of sports memorabilia in particular, counterfeit products have made many criminals rich. Counterfeiting as a whole is a multi-billion dollar industry with criminals in almost every country.
It is estimated that about 10 percent of sports memorabilia is counterfeited. Consumer demand largely drives counterfeiting fraud. It can be difficult to determine that particular items are counterfeited, and it can also be hard to prove that particular dealers are selling items that they knew were fraudulent. In this episode of Scammed, experts speak at the largest sports memorabilia convention in the world about the extent of counterfeiting. Agent Fitzsimmons of the FBI is also consulted about Operation Bullpen, a major bust conducted by his unit that resulted in the termination of a forgery operation.
The final topic covers a couple who received a counterfeit product as a prize, which resulted in a fire hazard that cost them the lives of their two children. Some of the content in this documentary may be considered to be objectionable. Viewer discretion is advised.
