2. Why is it important to raise awareness?
We still need to inform :
• that fakes are illegal goods
• Counterfeiting is endangering the economy – loss of jobs, threat to R&D investment
• Risks for consumers : health and safety risks, deception as to quality of the goods, mistrust in the market, threat to sensitive data and money)
• It is an unacceptable intrusion of illegal activities in everyday’s life
We need to show that we are actively fighting this plague
