Shame on you!
Did you know that the money made from the sale of counterfeit goods goes to support drug trafficking, terrorism and child labor?
They are available everywhere around the world – these fakes. Really all they are, are stolen ideas from designers who have worked their butts off for years to build their brands.
In reality, I get it – really I do – Why pay mega bucks for something when you can get something that looks similar for a way better price? Well, because it’s illegal. That’s right you are breaking the law by purchasing knockoff goods.
I know that fashion can hurt the pocketbook at times, but there are better ways than contributing to the 600 billion in counterfeit sales that happen each year. Profits of which go to support some of the most dangerous people on our planet.
Designers get it too – hence their development of more price friendly collections – I know you have all heard of Target, but I also know that not all of you want to be seen in the same thing as the person sitting next to you. Then I have one solution for you – SAVE YOUR $$ and get real! I know it doesn’t give you the instant gratification that having that Louis Vuitton bag now, or that Prada carryall or the sky-high platform Louboutins – but you can take pride in knowing how hard you worked to get it. And that you aren’t helping fund the next terrorist attack against our country.
The world of REAL fashion is fed up with fakes and taking action. Five years ago, Harpar’s Baazar launched the campaign, Fakes are Never in Fashion, to start getting the word out. Get more details, facts, and shocking statistics at www.fakesareneverinfashion.com.
In France you can get jail time just for owning fakes…That’s quite a way to crack down.
Be Real and Buy Real.
