Fake Apple Stores Mushrooming In China; No iPhone 5 Inside
Found on IT Pro Portal on Tuesday, 19 July 2011
A new worrying phenomenon has cropped up in China and Apple has been its first victim; meet the first fake Apple Stores, entire buildings that have been designed to look like the real thing.
A website called BirdAbroad has pictures of what looks like an Apple store but is in reality a completely genuine rip-off; the author of the post also confirms that the store was torn down and replaced by a bank but that two others have quickly appeared near to the original location located in a Chinese town called Kunming.
So companies produce everything in China, because it's cheaper. By doing that, they tell them how their products work and give them everything they need to know to make them. I hope they won't complain now about being ripped off after betraying their local industries and workers.
