By selling fake Maotai to buy luxury houses' get rich '! The Maotai you drink may be 'made in the bathroom'. Just this morning, the Gongshu branch of Hangzhou Public Security Bureau held a briefing on the case. With the cooperation of the environmental food and drug detachment of the Municipal Bureau, the market supervision and Administration Bureau of Gongshu District and the Shangcheng District Public Security Branch, a major case of producing and selling fake wine was cracked, involving a total value of more than 20 million yuan.
Captured 22 Baijiu gang and two dealers, led by Zhao Moule and Zhao Mouming brothers, and seized 1 million bottles of counterfeit famous brands of liquor such as Moutai, Wuliangye, Jiannanchun and the Yanghe River.
At present, 13 people have taken criminal coercive measures in this case, including 7 in criminal detention and 6 on bail. At present, 9 people have been transferred to court, and the amount of seized items involved has reached more than 8 million yuan. The case is under further excavation.
The reporter learned from the police handling the case that the two main suspects are from Anhui. Zhao moule is his brother and Zhao mouming is his brother. Fraud is prevalent in Zhao moule's hometown. Zhao moule makes money when he hears about wine. So he took his brother, father, brother-in-law and a family of six and embarked on the road of counterfeiting and selling fake wine.
When the police seized Zhao moule, he carried a card with him, with 800000 casually. He bought a large house and three cars in Kangqiao area in the north of Hangzhou, one of which is a cayenne.
Pouring and producing fake wine in toilet
The production operation is simple and the production conditions are simple
Let's start with a clue in 2017.
In June of that year, Gongshu Public Security Branch received a clue that someone bought a large number of trademarks of fake wine in Kangqiao area of Gongshu District, which was of great value. It was suspected that fake wine production and sales might be carried out.
Is this clue true or false? How to collect evidence?
Gongshu environmental food and drug brigade held on to the clues until October 2018. It was not clear that this was a case committed by a gang and filed for investigation.
During the investigation, the police of the task force found that in order to hide people's eyes and ears and escape the attack, the criminal gangs of Zhao moule and Zhao mouming chose the dens for manufacturing fake wine in the urban-rural junction section of a village in the west of Yuhang pond.
When investigators tried to smash the counterfeit dens, they found that the environment and production conditions of the fake wine were extremely bad compared with the Baijiu, such as high-grade Moutai and Wuliangye. The whole process of producing fake wine was completed in the bathroom of a rental room. The room was filled with simple tools for filling fake wine, dirty barrels and bottles. The process of making fake wine is to use the inferior Baijiu to make the blending, which is to sell the "genuine Li" and sell it with genuine wine, so as to get a high profit.
Fake wine bottles and anti-counterfeiting labels are almost the same as real wine
High degree of simulation
Although the counterfeiting dens are the same as small workshops, the environment and conditions are poor, and the whole counterfeiting process is also very simple and easy to operate, the degree of simulation of fake wine is high.
In order to achieve the purpose of "confusing the fake with the real", the criminal gang did not hesitate to purchase real wine bottles from Beijing, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, Wenzhou, Zhangzhou, Fujian and other places at a relatively high price. At the same time, it bought high simulation trademarks, outer packaging, anti-counterfeiting marks, etc. even after the police scanned the QR code of the bottle body during the investigation, it identified real wine.
With genuine Baijiu Baijiu, the group will buy relatively low alcohol liquor into Moutai, Wuliangye and other bottles, such as the use of "Moutai Prince liquor" and other Baijiu "fake flying Moutai", using the "Mianzhu Daqu" and other liquor to make fake Wuliangye, so the fake wine can be said to be highly emulation, and it is almost impossible for ordinary people to distinguish authenticity from consumption.
"Their fake wines are also divided into high, medium and low grades. Take the example of high-end liquor. The above-mentioned Maotai Prince liquor is more than 100 bottles. Change Maotai Prince liquor to Feitian Maotai liquor, more than 1000 bottles. You said he was a fake bar, No. But it's not Feitian Maotai, or fake Feitian. The middle-grade wine is blending. The local wine bought from Guizhou is blending, and the low-grade one is making fake wine. " Gongshu Public Security Branch Li Xiaohua said.
So how do consumers identify true and false wine?
Zhang Zhichao, the police chief of Banshan police station, told reporters: 'Wuliangye, Maotai and the bottle mouth have an anti-counterfeiting sticker with a code on it. Consumers log in to the official website and enter the code on the anti-counterfeiting sticker. As long as they can't be found on the official website, they are fake. They can't fake this code. "
The scene seized more than 1 bottles of famous brand baijiu.
Eight secondary wholesalers in Hangzhou were investigated and dealt with at one fell swoop
In the course of several months of investigation, in order to find out the members and organizational structure of the counterfeiting and selling gang led by Zhao moule, as well as the supply and marketing channels such as the secondary dealers of the fake wine, completely eradicate the living space of the criminal gang, and truly achieve the whole chain attack, the police of the task force worked overtime, went out early and returned late, and squatted down to find out the activity track and law of the gang, Basically found out the fake dens and warehouses of the criminal gang and the fake secondary wholesale stores in Gongshu, Xiacheng, West Lake, Jianggan and other areas under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou.
In the early morning of December 12, 2018, the time was ripe for arrest. With the strong support of the environmental food and drug detachment of the Municipal Bureau, Gongshu branch, together with the market supervision and Administration Bureau of Gongshu District, gathered more than 150 police to fight side by side with the public security branch of Shangcheng District, and divided into 11 action teams to destroy the criminal gang manufacturing fake wine at one fell swoop: smashed 2 fake wine manufacturing dens, investigated and dealt with those located in Gongshu, Xiacheng, West Lake In Jianggan and other places, 8 Baijiu and two wholesale stores were arrested. 22 counterfeit criminal gangs and two dealers were led by Zhao Moule and Zhao Mouming, and 1 counterfeit famous brands of liquor, including Moutai, Wuliangye, Jiannanchun, the Yanghe River series, were seized at the scene.
