More than 100,000 fake cosmetics orders were sold through these accounts on Shopee and TiKToK.

On May 8, the Economic Police Department - Bac Giang Provincial Police announced that it had dismantled a facility producing and trading a huge quantity of fake cosmetics in Dai Lam Commune, Lang Giang District, Bac Giang Province, arresting two subjects Nguyen Van Khanh (born in 1996) and Nguyen Thi Hien (born in 2003), both residing in Lai Village, Dai Lam Commune, Lang Giang District.

Notably, this facility has produced thousands of fake cosmetic products, successfully selling more than 100,000 orders to customers in provinces and cities across the country through e-commerce trading platforms Shopee and TikTok.

Previously, through the work of grasping the situation on cyberspace, the Economic Police Department, Bac Giang Provincial Police discovered Shopee accounts “Bn Store 2024,” “Bibo Comesticc,” “Nhungnguyen010798,” “Vliwwfo6-r” and TikTok accounts “Sare Comesticc,” “Coca Beauty” advertising and selling cosmetics such as body deodorants, acne treatment serums, skin whitening products... suspected of being counterfeit. The Economic Police Department has isolated and identified the subjects.

On May 7, at 10:30 a.m., a working group of the Economic Police Department, Bac Giang Provincial Police, in coordination with Dai Lam Commune Police and Market Management Team No. 4 (Bac Giang Provincial Market Management Department), suddenly inspected Nguyen Van Khanh's house and discovered Khanh and Hien were producing and packaging fake cosmetics.

Khanh and Hien have produced dozens of cosmetics from floating ingredients and sold them successfully on e-commerce trading floors.

At the scene, the task force seized 13 different types of cosmetics with a total quantity of 2,468 finished products such as makeup remover, skin cream, acne treatment serum Demi Skin 3 days, SEIMY skin 7 days plus, KT'skin serum; STOPIREX deodorant, Steel Punch underarm deodorant, Hai Sen underarm deodorant, BEUFRES deodorant spray, ALUFAN alum distilled water, INOD Armpit Serum, Crystal 24 Hour; about 104,000 anti-counterfeit stamps, labels of all kinds; nearly 10,000 bottles and jars; millions of packaging of all kinds; 300kg of raw materials such as alum, mixing solution, conveyor belt shrink wrapping machine, date stamping machine...

Through the investigation, the Economic Police Department initially determined that from the end of 2024, Nguyen Van Khanh realized the need for customers to consume many types of cosmetic products, so he came up with the idea of producing fake cosmetics to sell for profit.

Khanh went online to research some types of deodorants, acne treatment serums, and skin whitening products that are in high demand on the market, then ordered fake labels and packaging for these products.

To carry out the production, Khanh bought machinery, raw materials, tools, bottles, etc. and produced them at home to sell to the national market for profit.

The main raw materials used to produce cosmetics are mainly solutions, mixed flavors of unknown origin, and alum powder. Khanh bought these raw materials on the market.

Finished products are sold on e-commerce platforms Shopee and TikTok. When there are buyers, they are sent for sale via COD shipping service.

Since the end of 2024, Khanh has successfully sold over 100,000 orders to customers in provinces and cities across the country with a revenue of over 6 billion VND.

The Investigation Police Agency of Bac Giang Provincial Police is continuing to investigate, verify and expand the case for handling according to regulations./.
