S.E. Asia is now up to it's eyeballs in ordinary face masks. Cottage industries on out to major manufacturers are cashing in on the virus. Some of these masks are obviously home made with questionable materials, others, in typical pirating style are using reputable manufacturer logos, designs, and even packaging. This is very common and an ongoing major headache for government export inspectors.
Most recently word has circulated these pirated masks may include N95 certified type. These may not be easy to spot.
Example of pirating: New in the box Seagate hard disk drive. Shrink wrapped, all the usual data printed on the box. Inside the drive was properly packaged in anti-static film with the Segate data info sticker on the drive and contained manufacturer info sheet and warranty card. My drive failed after two months and I took it to a designated Seagate service center. Shaking their heads they plugged the drive into a test computer and without looking turned the monitor for me to see: Not Seagate.
Why develop and manufacture your own product when you can buy cheap knock offs - literally by the ton, disguise everything and sell the products at several hundred percent profit?
