Apple is the most counterfeit

PriceMinister data report that the volume of counterfeit technological products grew 170 percent over the past year, leaving behind the figure recorded by the clothing, accessories and cosmetics sector, which stood at 59 percent.

The most targeted technological brand is Apple, especially when it comes to its famous iPods. The American’s products have been increasingly counterfeited and, in 2008, its copies grew 328 percent, says the same source whose data was cited by the newspaper Expresso.

However, other companies have seen counterfeit rates grow at a three-digit rate. Among the most prominent names is Microsoft, which saw the level of counterfeiting of its products increase by 295 percent, and Nintendo (133 percent).
