Hundreds of counterfeit Pokémon cards seized in connection to Japanese police arrest

Counterfeit Pokémon products are a common sight out in the wild, but a recent police operation in Japan led to the arrest of a 21-year-old seller of fake Pokémon cards.

According to a number of Japanese news sources, as well as PokéBeach, Annaka City police were informed of Reo Otake’s counterfeiting ways back in November 2022 after a customer of the suspect reported purchasing four Pokémon cards for 186,100 Yen, or roughly $1,252, through an auction website.
