ICT devices counterfeiting

Counterfeiting has become a gigantic societal menace that has become very worrisome to many concerned individuals and organizations. Something has to be done urgently to save the situation. Nigerians no longer enjoy real value for their money. It has become so difficult to distinguish between original and fake products in the market.

Even marketers are not helping matters. They are just interested in making money whether the customers are satisfied or not, it is none of their business. They will even proclaim the counterfeit products as original just to make money.

This is the reason why some ICT companies are going the extra miles to protect their integrity by introducing anti-counterfeiting solution which detects the fake of their products on the spot. HP for instance has introduced mobile authentication service which detects fake HP products at the point of purchase.

Mobile Authentication gives an instant verification of original HP inks, cartridges and toners. It simply scans the QR code on the security label and quickly cross check if it is available on the HP website database.  Non availability of the QR code indicates that the product is fake.
