Jan 29, 2020

Dear Customers,




It has recently come to our attention that counterfeit Samsung products and accessories are being sold and distributed. In light of this, we'd like to bring the following to your attention:


If the product or accessory that you own is identified as counterfeit, you will not be able to use the services provided by Samsung Electronics and it may be difficult to receive compensation for damage or loss caused by using a counterfeit product or accessory. As a result, please take care to avoid purchasing counterfeit products and accessories.


It is likely that products or accessories purchased from unofficial online or offline retailers are counterfeit. Therefore, we recommend that you purchase through your Samsung Electronics Service Centres, authorised Samsung retailers or the Samsung Electronics website.
