Knock Off Designer Handbags
Who' Cares if I buy a Designer Knock-Off? No One Is getting Hurt, Right
Some consumers simply do not care if the handbag is authentic so long as it looks to be so. The argument goes, who is being hurt if I buy a fake Louis Vuitton or a fake Hermes bag? Aside from the obvious profits which are lost by the designers, that is a very good question. Who is being hurt by the manufacturer of these designer knockoff handbags?

The truth is, since these are organizations engaged in criminal activity, we can not know. There have been suggestions that the knockoff designer handbag market engages in child labor abuses. It has also been suggested that some of the funds generated by counterfeit operations funds terrorism, though I have not found any specific information to confirm that. Without a doubt, the funds are being used to fund criminal.
