I just read this on FB, its a poorly written statement from Stattqualm regarding "that atomizer"
English:
Statement on counterfeits of the SQuape R(eloaded)
This is to consider an official statement about the recently emerged topic of the 1:1 replica of our product SQuape R(eloaded) and is aimed at all the stores that offer or plan to offer the plagiarism/counterfeit of our product, as well as end buyers:
Our product is protected by law in Switzerland, in Europe, in the USA and soon in China and we will use all of our available legal means in order to stop the sale (online and offline) of all counterfeits. The distribution of the so-called 'clones' is problematic because the manufacturer of the counterfeit want obviously to suggest to their customers that their product is a protected original. This is illegal and is not tolerated by our side.
At the same time, the occurrence of plagiarism complicates our support. Since even the packaging, the logo and serial numbers are copied 1:1, this will no longer be easy for us to provide a support without proof of authenticity on the part of the customer. Of course, we can not provide support if we do not know the nature of the materials used for example. In case of a possible support, we therefore ask you to provide in future pictures of the base, of the deck as well as a copy of the invoice in sufficient quality to enable an adequate support.
Unlike our first product, the SQuape V1, at this time we will not go into the details on the nature of the various replicas/counterfeits. We will discuss neither warn you about any defects nor technical details. Only this: The manufacturer and distributor of plagiarism would not clearly targeted at the customer deception, and copy logo, name, design and 'made in Switzerland', we could dispense with legal action from our side. It does not bother us if manufacturers and stores generate sales through our system of the atomizer. However we can not tolerate that in China identical-looking copies are produced under our company name as 'made in Switzerland' and distributed worldwide, only to deceive customers to the effect that they would purchase a high quality product. In this context we already have and we will make all of our available legal remedies use and take action against commercial sales which include the 1:1 replica of our product SQuape R(eloaded).
SQuape on!
