I just went to horizon-ecig and put in the number and it said "what you are looking for is:" and then after "the original product from horizon tech". Was that the verification? Just poorly translated? When I put the spaces in like the code was formatted on the scratch off it said "query is not a number". When I removed the spaces it told me the number has been checked more than once which I guess was supposed to warn me that it was fake if it hadn't been me who checked it first. I think I'm fine, the tank works great and performs like everyone said it would, but dang that site needs a little more localization work done.
