One Week to #BlackFriday & #CyberMonday
Black Friday Sales make it harder to spot fakes by price.
There are other ways to spot a fake, especially online.

Counterfeit electricals are dangerous and don't conform to Safety Standards. Keep your loved ones safe and don't buy fake @The_ACG Read our advice on online shopping bit.ly/3l5ks0S @TSScot @ElecSafetyFirst
We asked @ElecSafetyFirst about the dangers of buying counterfeit electrical products:
🔌missing/substandard safety components
🔥 risk of electric shock/fire
Stick to reputable retailers and if you accidentally buy a fake, stop using it & report it to @advicedotscot #DontFakeIt
We see huge value in sponsoring the Real Deal Charter. A vital initiative of @_NMGroup supporting Trading Standards and market operators / on-line admins to create fake-free marketplaces to protect consumers and legitimate businesses. Long may it continue @RealDeal_Market #fake
