Tamron China issued a warning about counterfeit lens packaging - here is the translated statement:
A solemn statement on the appearance of multiple batches of counterfeit Tamron lens packaging on the market
Dear Tamron product consumers and Tamron dealers:
Since the Tamron brand and products entered the Chinese market, the company has always regarded the protection and protection of consumers' legitimate personal rights and interests as the company's long-term work focus.
Recently, our after-sales service department has found that some consumers purchased products with fake packaging (not mainland China), parallel imports disguised as mainland China products, and second-hand refurbished products disguised as mainland China new products in the process of serving consumers.
These unscrupulous merchants have greatly damaged the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, and have also caused serious adverse effects on the reputation of our brand. In this regard, our company will continue to work with relevant departments to crack down on various illegal acts that infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of Tamron consumers in accordance with the law.
In order to better protect the rights and interests of consumers, our company recommends that consumers purchase from sellers recognized by our company. For the recognized dealers, please refer to the list on our official website or call 400-610-5688 for inquiries; now attached are the records of some of the unscrupulous merchants purchased by the victimized consumers and the comparison chart of the real and fake packaging boxes for identification.
