Counterfeiting products is considered the largest organized crime in the world. STRG_F reporter Christian's wife fell for a counterfeit network. She ordered a backpack from Fjällraven online. In a shop that offers photos with original backpacks. In fact, it was a fake. And dangerous to health too. Laboratory tests have shown that the fake backpack is heavily contaminated with heavy metals. Counterfeits are increasing rapidly. And the counterfeiters are hard to stop. Christian wants to find her in China together with colleagues from NDR and ZEIT. Why do they have it so easy? And how does the business work? Their path leads them to the backpack counterfeiters' workshops.
