Chicago CBP officials will find more than 161,000 fake stamps in the post office

CHICAGO – – The officials of the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) confiscated eight programs of more than 161,000 fake US status in the Chicago International Mail branch last weekend.

The background story:

The officials have intercepted plots from China, which contain fake stamps that, if they are real, be worth more than 118,000 US dollars. Due to their low invoice value, the stamps became unusual shipping routes and try to hide them as fake.

Real stamps are produced by the US Bureau of Gravur & Printing, but civil servants warn that counterfeits get better.

While the confiscated stamps had poor print quality, the counterfeits, which makes it more difficult for the average consumer, improve the difference.
