A video exposing how a television was repackaged and sold as an LG product continued to spark debate about fake electronics in Nigeria. While some users condemned the act as clear fraud, others attempted to downplay or defend it.
One comment pushed back aggressively, stating “Did u know how much this TV cost, you’re calling it fake. Don’t because of your nonsense content spoil someone business.” The response framed criticism of counterfeiting as an attack on livelihoods, rather than addressing the core issue of misrepresentation. It shifted focus from consumer deception to sympathy for the seller, implying that exposing fraud is more harmful than the act itself, and further blurred the line between legitimate business and counterfeit practices.
