Two Lithuanians Prosecuted for Counterfeiting Laundry Detergent
In the News
We have all heard of money laundering, but have you heard about the Ariel laundering by two lithuanians ?
They were actually producing and selling counterfeit washing detergent under the Ariel name
Police found 22 metric tons of fake washing powder and liquid detergent in a warehouse along with false labels and documents
Exactly what was used in the manufacture is not stated, but i bet it would not shift those stubborn stains as in the original advert
Imagine how you would feel if you were duped into buying it thinking you would be getting a whiter than white wash, but just got a washout

That’s a new one on me, laundry detergent 
amazing the lengths people actually go to
Really wouldn't think there is that much money in it to go to the bother of counterfeit laundry detergent .
That's scary. Glad they have been caught though. I'm not shocked though people will do anything to make money
I've known about this happening for a while. I was telling MrsChimp the other day why I wouldn't buy laundry detergent from eBay because of it.
I bet with all that laundry detergent they would have expected to make a clean getaway.
