What is the "Fake Duty-Free Liquor at Providenciales Market" scam in Providenciales?

Question

Accepted Answer

Some vendors at informal markets sell bottles labeled as premium spirits (Johnnie Walker Blue, aged rum) that are either counterfeit or heavily diluted. Prices are offered at deep "duty-free" discounts to make the deal seem credible. Counterfeit spirits can cause serious health harm. Purchase spirits only at licensed duty-free shops at the airport or from established liquor stores in the Graceway IGA supermarket complex. Any bottle offered at a price that seems too good to be true for a premium brand almost certainly is. Check bottle seals, holograms, and label printing quality before purchase.
