Police warn of 'lethal' fake beauty products on sale
and lead. The unwanted elements can lead to swelling, rashes and in the most
serious cases, lethal poisoning. Consumers using websites to buy fake goods have
also been warned that they are at risk of having their identities stolen.
Detective Superintendent Maria Woodall said: ''Many people don't know about the
real dangers counterfeit beauty products pose to their health. Criminals are exploiting
every opportunity to fool customers into buying counterfeits in order for them to make
some quick cash - putting peoples' health, homes and lives at risk. Beauty products
are meant to enhance your features, however the fakes can do quite the opposite.
Our general rule is if it seems too good to be true then it probably is. Not only could
these products have serious implications to your health and wellbeing but by simply
going online and buying from a rogue site or dealer, your personal and financial
information is at risk
