Name brand counterfeiting. Global economic crisis

Description

Cheap lookalikes of popular goods are flooding the world's markets, depriving legitimate manufacturers of hundreds of billions of dollars each year. This eye-opening expose follows the anti-counterfeit investigators of Cartier and BIC from their headquarters to New York and Nigeria and then on to China as they hurry to trace and stop the flow of illegal goods at the source. But bringing injunctions and carrying out raids against the many vendors, Internet merchants, and wholesalers require time, which is not on their side. Every day, inferior fakes are siphoning off sales while tarnishing their products' reputations for high quality.
