Cigar Counterfeiters Busted in Hialeah

Sunday, November 8, 2009

Here’s a piece of cigar-related news that I thought my readers might be interested in. Evidently, there was a cigar counterfeiting ring operating in Hialeah, Florida, about 30 minutes from where I live. According to the news story, they were making millions of a dollars a year selling inexpensive bundle cigars with Cuban cigar labels on them. For more information on the story, watch the video below or check out the full story here.

    I was going to post what I originally sent you on facebook, however, I thought wrong and read again. They were selling fake Cubans, I thought they were counterfeiting premium cigars that are legally sold in stores. Dumb move by these people, nonetheless.
