Joss Cues scam alert

[fab944]

I just received an email from Joss regarding a scam Facebook post.

​

​

This Is Not Us. It is a scam!
It has come to our attention that there is a fake ad on Facebook.
This is not us!

Kind regards,
Joss Cues​

I only ever report the most obvious scam posts on Facebook, scams about which there can be no doubt or debate. I've made dozens of reports over the years and every single one was dismissed.

Oops. I think I doubled your post dude. Should've looked first. Apologies. I'll see if I can delete that.
Facebook is a money generation machine that could care less about, in their minds, petty probs like this.

months back Amazon had either fake Joss or Schon cues listed. i reported them and was ignored.

I call it wastebook got no use for it, my opinion only.

 

[WildWing]

Don't use social media to buy a cue.

Just received another email from Joss Cues about TEMU fake ads:

​

Counterfeit Joss Cue Alert​

It has come to our attention that counterfeit cues are being sold online under the name “Joss II.” On Temu
These cues are not made by Joss Cues and are not made in the USA.
They are imported imitations from overseas, sold at cheap prices with even cheaper quality.
We want our players and collectors to know:
• If it doesn’t come directly from us or one of our authorized dealers, it is not authentic.
• Every Joss cue is handmade in the USA with the highest level of craftsmanship — counterfeits cannot compare in playability, quality, or value.
• Buying counterfeit cues not only risks your money but also undermines the integrity of our industry.
Please be careful and only purchase from trusted, authorized Joss dealers or directly from me. If you are unsure whether your cue is authentic, contact me at [info@josscues.com] and I’ll help verify it.
Thank you for your support and for helping us fight against counterfeit products.

I've been seeing those Joss II cues for sale for over a year, it certainly took them long enough to realize they were out there...

Their accountant finally saw how the bottom line was being affected.
Wasn't worth the effort until they actually started selling a few.
Sad shit really. And they probably don't see anything wrong with what they're doing bcuz they put that "II" on the end.

I want to say that any trademark that tends to mislead or causes confusion is illegal. If not, I have a bunch of Tim Scruggs,Toos, for sale, priced right (like little chickens): cheap, cheap, cheap.

Chinese companies do not recognize any of our trade regulations. Basically they counterfeit everything and anything of value including our money!

There are, or were, a ton of fake Adam cues being advertised as "made in Japan" on the internet.

You have to do your homework these days when buying stuff.
