Fakes are as we know more prevalent at this time of year ,and as I've been shopping for my Granddaughter in the Disney Store I just wanted to highlight the story.

Thanks for sharing.

 

Is your granddaughter a Frozen fan?

 

My girl loves Rapunzel from Tangled.

Is she ever Adrianna !

She loves the film and has quite a bit of the merchandise 😄

Can't help spoiling her.

Jonsie have you ever bought a phone etc which is a fake but has been ok and worked in the UK ?

Can't speak for jonsie, but I once bought an iPhone 4 that was supposed to be made by Apple. I later found out it was made by a Chinese company called Foxconn and they used leftovers from Samsung, LG and Sony. I tell you bob, I was furious.
Worked fine though over here, except that it didn't get much of a signal unless I held it like a pleb.

No to be honest. I always buy genuine and as long as they've worked for 10 minutes of calls with a local sim card they are fine back in the UK. Similarly I made sure I used the Note 4 in the UK before I came here. Working great with a Thai sim.

I could get a Chinese note 4 here for around £200 but I won't take the risk tbh.

Fair enough jonsie. £200 sounds tempting but I agree Genuine is better.

Lol Viridis 😉

I do remember a certain handset @MI5 got that looked like an iPhone but had Android on it (I think)

Just like to add this:
Alongside the 426 Frozen dolls officers found 1,400 fake Peppa Pig toys which were leaking an unidentified chemical"

They caught swine flu from the trip.

"and 3,000 potentially lethal sets of Christmas,"

It is a dangerous time.

My daughter also likes Frozen but not as much as Rapunzel.

 

Oh and Peppa Pig grin
