Barcode can reflect the origin, manufacturer and variety of goods, and its main function is to trace the information of goods, and it can't be completely confirmed by barcode.

At present, most of the code scanning software used by citizens is developed by enterprises, which is not official data. Its essence is to rely on the software database established in the background. If the information of related products is not stored in the database for the time being, even genuine goods can't be scanned with code scanning software.

Similarly, if the illegal merchants who produce fake goods steal the bar codes of regular merchants, consumers may be fake even if they scan the information. When shopping, you can't use the barcode scanning results as the only reference to distinguish the authenticity of goods. When you find that the barcode scanning information of goods is blank or the query results are inconsistent with the actual labels, you'd better consult the merchants and verify them before deciding whether to buy them.

The reporter took one of the fake shampoos to some shops to ask whether it was true or not, and the shopkeepers all said that it was difficult to distinguish them, and it was difficult to distinguish them from the real ones in terms of appearance and smell.
