Fugazi Cohiba, how shall I count the ways?

Trying to explain to someone that they got rooked. How many things wrong do you see here? Sorry for the potato camera, this is the best of what he sent. Should be pretty obvious even at potato resolution.

Yikes. I've always wondered where one would find a fake like this. I've never seen one in the wild. Just curious where they circulate.

This is an exceptionally awful one indeed. He has 8 of them and is giving them to me along with a humidor that I actually want and am paying for. Trying to ask where TF he got these things. 😆 I'm going to keep them around for educational and hilarity value. Also going to show him some real ones and let him smoke one so he doesn't get rooked like that again. He said he paid $10 each, which is about $9.75 more than they are worth. Might cut one open to see how much sawdust is in it. 😅

Still, nothing can beat the Cohiba EL 2022 that @madandana got me for Christmas a couple of years ago. They looked so great that I framed them and hung them on the wall!

@Chas.Alpha I imagine that would be an explosive smoke! Beetles go pop. 😆

I kinda want one of those glass top fauxhiba boxes for funsies, but am not going to reward scammers with money. Maybe if an empty one comes up on eBay.

Oh, I don’t know. If it wasn’t for the scammers, we wouldn’t have anything to talk about! 😂

Mike’s a pretty stout dude. I’m certain he didn’t pay retail price for them. It is my favorite cigar art after all…
