There is no such thing as easy money.
Counterfeits can be very profitable.... BUT:
Extra Reward = Extra RISK (that is true no matter how you want to spin it)
If anyone is thinking of doing this for some quick and easy cash, you should know that eBay sellers, Amazon sellers and individual website owners are being sued by the DOZENS each week in federal court. The rights owners got tired of waiting for the government to help them, so they have hired law firms to go after sellers.
An undercover buyer makes a purchase from you and the item is verified as counterfeit. The next thing you know, you are receiving mail from a law firm threatening to sue if you dont pay $xxxx.xx and sign agreements to cease and decist by xx/xx/xxxx.
Worse, if they determine that you were selling in volume, then the FBI might get involved. And that means potential PRISON TIME if you are found guilty.
Please don't get me wrong, I am not judging anyone. Do whatever you want. But don't think that this is an easy risk-free way of making tons of $$$.
