## Resource

Johannesburg cops pulled off a major counterfeit bust, seizing over 1.5 million rand in fake sports gear—including Springboks-branded jerseys and sneakers—just in time for a big match. The raid, involving multiple police units and customs, shut down a full-scale operation complete with manufacturing tools and equipment. Authorities targeted the supply chain to stop scammers from cashing in on fan frenzy during high-stakes games. A reminder: buy only from official channels and report suspicious items to help protect the game and your wallet.
