Raw Thrills has shut down all manufacturers of counterfeit Raw Thrills games in China.
The company was assisted by its China IP protection team, including SIPS, the Chinese Copyright Bureau in Panyu and former FBI special agent Bob Fay.
“These games are of extremely low quality, do not conform to US and international electrical and safety standards, are unreliable and have no warranty,” said Mark Struhs, sales manager.
“In addition, it is a violation of US and international law to sell, buy, own or operate these games. So we will continue to monitor the situation at home and abroad and prosecute without reservation.”
These copy games first came to the attention of Raw Thrills via numerous service calls, coupled with information from other operators. From there, they implicated both the buyers and sellers of the games and subjected them to legal action.
“Once the seller was approached by our investigators, they handed over the customer list right away,” said Struhs. “So then we seized games and collected damages from the buyers and middlemen.”
