A fake device is more than a bad taste, it is a safety and trust problem. This guide gives adults the checks that expose a counterfeit before you rely on it.
Check the seal and pack
A genuine device ships sealed with clean print and a clear batch code. Torn film, smudged text or a missing code are warning signs.
Compare the pack with the brand page. Odd fonts or a different layout often give a fake away.
Verify the seller
Buy only from an authorised seller that shows a compliant path. Unknown marketplaces and social media shops are the usual source of fakes.
A price far below the local norm is a strong signal. The saving is rarely worth the risk.
Trust the taste and draw
A genuine device tastes even and draws steady. A fake may taste harsh, weak or simply wrong for the labelled flavour.
If the experience does not match the profile you chose, question the source before assuming the line changed.
What to do with a suspected fake
Stop using it and contact the seller for verification. Keep the pack and the batch code as proof.
Report persistent issues through the proper channel rather than reselling or passing it on.
