Sites selling counterfeit cigarettes

[sandyko]

All the sites we list here, are sites that some members have tested and found out they send counterfeit cigarettes.

For this reason, we have put these sites in our Black list: we'll never support sites that sell counterfeit cigarettes!

We want to buy cheap cigarettes but genuine cigarettes and not fake, counterfeit cigarettes    

And you, have you received some counterfeit cigarettes before? If so, from what site? Feel free to post your testimony.

Some members have ordered from this site http://www.cheerstrade.com/typelist.asp?typeid=180 : they have received their orders, but the cigarettes received are counterfeit.  

So, we do not recommend this site and it is in our Black list.

Philip Morris USA Sues Websites and Retailers Selling Counterfeit Cigarettes to California Consumers
RICHMOND, Va., Feb 16, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) --

Philip Morris USA (PM USA) filed lawsuits yesterday against seven China-based online retailers for selling counterfeit versions of the company's Marlboro® brand cigarettes to California consumers -- the first time a U.S. company has sued a China-based website for selling counterfeit cigarettes to American consumers. PM USA also filed suit against eight retailers who recently sold counterfeit versions of the company's Marlboro® brand cigarettes to Los Angeles-area consumers. These lawsuits are part of the company's on-going efforts to stop the sale of counterfeit cigarettes and the unauthorized use of PM USA's trademarks.

PM USA believes that counterfeit cigarette traffickers have established a foothold in the Los Angeles area, and that today Los Angeles is one of the top two markets for counterfeit cigarette activity in the U.S. The actions and lawsuits are the culmination of a several month investigation involving the LA County Sheriff's office and other law enforcement agencies to address the sale of counterfeit Marlboro® cigarettes in the Los Angeles area. These actions led to 10 arrests and the seizure of more than 9,200 packs of counterfeit Marlboro® cigarettes.

"The sale of counterfeit cigarettes defrauds adult smokers who believe they are buying genuine Marlboro® cigarettes, resulting in significant lost revenue for the State, and is often driven by organized crime syndicates," said Joe Murillo, vice president and associate general counsel, Altria Client Services speaking on behalf of PM USA. "The sale of counterfeit Marlboro® cigarettes to U.S. consumers through China-based websites is an emerging problem," added Murillo. "Selling counterfeit cigarettes is illegal, and we will continue to evolve our approach to take appropriate action to protect our brands."
Since 2002, PM USA has sued more than 2,800 retailers in California for selling counterfeit PM USA-branded cigarettes, in addition to seven websites.
The entities named in the lawsuits filed in the Central District of California are:
