Fake Anycall Phone Producers Busted

Police have busted a business that manufactured and sold fake mobile phones, reports Digital Chosunilbo.

"Hyewha Police Station in Seoul booked the head of company called M Networks and 13 other executives and staff on charges of assembling made-in-China plastic bodies and used parts to produce 20,000 counterfeit mobile phones, mostly of the successful Samsung Anycall series.

The fake phones were so similar to the real thing that it was hard to tell the difference with the naked eye. The only differences were that the fakes were a little less shiny and a little harder to slide open."
