DALLAS – Hundreds of fake designer purses are now out of Dallas stores and in the possession of federal authorities after a nationwide crackdown.
Teams of Dallas police and U.S. marshals raided several stores including the Big T Bazaar in Oak Cliff and seized knockoff Coach purses.
In a federal court complaint, Coach, Inc. claims a distribution network of fake high-end bags, wallets and shoes starts in North Texas and spreads across the country and damages its brand.
In at least one location, a private investigator paid $40 for a counterfeit bag.
