BIG HP COUNTERFEIT TONER AND INK BUST
IN INDIA
A bid scam of counterfeit
printing material is disclosed by HP alongwith SA ACF team and the
local Police in Bangalore, Delhi and Gandhidham. Acting valiantly, the
team executed an enforcement action on assembly operations in the Ashok
Nagar area of Bangalore; Daryaganj and Bazar Sitaram suburbs of Delhi
and in Gandhidham and have arrested 6 individuals in Bangalore and 4 in
Gandhidham.The police have seized more than 12,000 counterfeit
products that include various Ink packages, Toner packages, Ink security
labels, Toner security labels, finished Toners, Ink cartridges, barcode
stickers etc at the raid. It also included more than 5,000 additional
production items and around 79,900 toner security labels.Our
commitment to our customers is the driving force behind the vigilance of
our anti-counterfeit team, as we understand how the sale of counterfeit
HP products negatively impacts our customer and the HP brand. With
counterfeit HP print cartridges, customers purchase what they often
assume to be a genuine HP product, but they instead receive a cartridge
that provides them with inferior print quality at best and often times a
cartridge that fails to perform at all. Through our anti counterfeiting
efforts, HP is determined to protect our customers and our brand. said
Jeff Kwasny, director of HP Brand Protection for print cartridges who is
based in Palo Alto, California, USA. HP had appointed contractors,
which assisted law enforcement officials with the information regarding
the existence and location of these counterfeit goods. HPs global
anti-counterfeit program incorporates industry-leading
anti-counterfeiting practices and partners with law enforcement agencies
to combat the manufacture, distribution, and sale of counterfeit HP
printer cartridges.On a global level, HP maintains an aggressive
approach to anti-counterfeiting and has conducted more than 4,723
investigations in 88 countries over the last 4 years. This activity has
resulted in the seizure of more than 47.23 million units worth of
counterfeit products and components (Investigations and actions have
occurred in every continent except Antarctica. In APJ, over the last 4
years, HP conducted 2,641 investigations in multiple countries resulting
in 2,111 enforcement actions (raids and seizures by authorities)
seizing over 15 million units of counterfeit products and components..
