Preacher’s Arrest Leads to Seizure of Counterfeit Cartier Jewellery

2019/09/27

US customs officers in Kentucky have seized counterfeit jewellery imitating USD 90 million of genuine products.
 
The operations involved the arrest of North Carolina pastor Jiangang Lan last month, after the discovery of a “cache of more than 3,200 fake Cartier bracelets” worth USD 42 million at the Deer Park Community Church in North Carolina.
Lan has been charged with felony use of a counterfeit trademark.
 
The latest operation, carried out between September 9 and 17, uncovered five shipments containing counterfeits that US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said, if genuine, would be worth USD 48 million.
