70% of consumers unknowingly buy counterfeit products online, warns a 2023 Michigan State University study.

A 2023 Michigan State University study reveals that nearly 70% of consumers have unknowingly purchased counterfeit products online. To avoid this, shoppers should be wary of: 1) Cheap medications sold without prescriptions, which may be harmful. 2) Unfamiliar sellers, especially third-party ones on e-commerce sites. 3) Products priced significantly lower than usual. 4) Poor product reviews or unclear images. Buy directly from trusted brands to ensure authenticity.
