Nearly $12 MILLION worth of fake championship and team rings are now OFF the market … so says U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials — who say they just seized 177 counterfeit pieces!
CBP officials announced Tuesday they found nearly 200 fake rings during an inspection of a March 11 shipment from China to the U.S.
The faux-bling included Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots Super Bowl rings, New York Yankees World Series rings and much more.
And, we gotta say … they do look pretty awesome.
But officials say they caught the stuff before it could be sold to Americans — claiming they saved U.S. consumers $11.7 MILLION with the seizure!!!
“This most recent interception of counterfeit sports rings demonstrates the ongoing vigilance and commitment to the mission by our CBP Officers and Import Specialists,” officials said.
