1. Look at the color: the trademarks and text on genuine cigarettes in strips and boxes are of the same color; the trademarks and text on counterfeit cigarettes have a color cast and are dim.

2. Observe pictures and texts: The patterns and text of genuine cigarettes are clear and complete, and the molded patterns or characters are obviously convex; the patterns and characters of counterfeit cigarettes are poor in clarity, the molded patterns or characters are not convex enough, and the characters are not convex enough. The strokes (especially small characters) are incomplete.

3. Check the steel seal: the steel seal on the bottom of the genuine cigarette small pack box is clear, even, and has a certain depth; the steel seal number on the bottom of the counterfeit cigarette small pack box is smaller, the font type is different, and the printing clarity Or not deep enough.

4. Peeling the shredded tobacco: peeling off the authentic cigarette, the width of the shredded tobacco is uniform, the shredded tobacco has a high wholeness rate, and there is less tobacco powder; while the width of the shredded tobacco of the fake cigarette is uneven and the color of the shredded tobacco is dim. , there are more tobacco dust or stem pieces.

5. Smell the aroma: The aroma of genuine cigarette cut tobacco is mellow and harmonious; while the cut tobacco of counterfeit cigarettes has not been strictly processed, its aroma is pungent, the smell of raw smoke is strong, and the temperament is heavier, which is different from the genuine cigarettes. The scent and type are inconsistent.

6. Taste the smell of cigarettes: When you light a genuine cigarette and smoke it, you can feel the harmonious aroma, pure taste, and better combustibility of the tobacco; while when you smoke a counterfeit cigarette, you can feel the aroma It is disharmonious, has a poor smoking taste, is highly irritating, and even has a choking and irritating feeling in the throat, and the burning properties of cut tobacco are not good.

In addition, some famous brands of cigarettes use inkjet coding, thermal ink printing, laser anti-counterfeiting and other technical means to prevent counterfeiting of cigarette boxes and cigarettes, which can also be used as a reference for identification. However, as the level of counterfeiting increases, counterfeit cigarettes also adopt these anti-counterfeiting technologies. Therefore, it cannot be used as the only basis for identification. For example, the flip-top Green Yingkesong cigarette filter pine paper and the flip-top Wuhu cigarette box produced by Wuhu Cigarette Factory both used thermal ink printing technology for anti-counterfeiting, but soon counterfeit cigarettes also used it, which made it difficult to accurately identify genuine cigarettes. Fake increases the difficulty. Therefore, while anti-counterfeiting technology is used to identify genuine and fake cigarettes, the above six aspects of steps and methods can be used for inspection to achieve more accurate and effective identification. , Colonel Xiang Mengzhao! 2008-07-28 13:08 Report

The length of fake cigarettes is often 0.5 to 1 mm shorter than real cigarettes. "A notice board on the side of the display site of genuine and counterfeit cigarettes at the Dalian Tobacco Monopoly Bureau Market Management Center reminds people to pay attention to this intuitive identification method.

"It does not mean that all fake cigarettes are better than real cigarettes. short. "The staff of this center said that this is just one of the intuitive standards for identifying true and false cigarettes.

According to reports, in addition to the different lengths of the "wrap paper" of cigarettes, there are at least one more criteria for identifying true and false cigarettes. Another 4 criteria: The transparent paper of counterfeit cigarette boxes is usually harder and thicker than that of cigarette boxes. If the cigarette box is recycled, there will be a crease on the back of the flap, and there will be adulterated cigarettes or fake cigarettes in the box. Counterfeiters often open the upper cover of the cigarette box from both sides and then load the fake cigarettes. When identifying, they mainly check whether the seals on both sides of the box cover have been opened, and identify whether there are creases in the aluminum foil packaging of real cigarettes. The printing on the aluminum foil of the fake cigarettes is blurry, with thick foil dots and an obvious network shape. The aluminum foil of the adulterated cigarettes has wrinkles and unevenness. The printing of the fake cigarettes is distorted and feels hard. The adulterated cigarettes are usually inserted at the back.

It is understood that the counterfeit cigarettes with repackaged products currently appearing on the Dalian market have four main characteristics, namely, the genuine recycled boxes contain fake cigarettes; the recycled genuine boxes contain lower-grade genuine cigarettes. Or put real cigarettes in fake cigarette boxes and sell them at a slightly lower price than real cigarettes; put fake cigarettes in real cigarette boxes and sell them as real cigarettes; adulterated cigarettes usually use real cigarette boxes with several fake cigarettes inserted into them. /p>

In order to effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers and effectively crack down on the criminal activities of manufacturing and selling counterfeit cigarettes, several methods for identifying the authenticity of cigarettes are introduced for the reference of consumers.

1. , Apply sensory method to identify genuine and fake cigarettes

Master the technology of comprehensive analysis and judgment based on five aspects of inspection: packs, packets, cigarettes, shredded tobacco, and smoking taste.

1. .Due to the transformation of equipment, some manufacturers have made the packaging process characteristics of cigarettes inconsistent with the conventional situation. For example, the Chinese small box thread puller produced by Shanghai Cigarette Factory Foke Machine is semi-circular; the GDX-2 packaging machine adopts the above method. Open the lid; the GDX-I small box cigarette labels are glued and sealed in a dot shape, and the SASIB improved carton has a side opening lid with three-point glue. The small box cigarette labels are glued and sealed in a one-to-one shape, and the cigarette labels have cut corners but at the same time There are multiple angles and so on.

2. For some small-scale cigarette manufacturing enterprises, small (hard) box packaging may be hand-packed, such as the hard box Dujuan of Nanning Cigarette Factory in Guangxi.

2. Distinguish true and false cigarettes from the shredded cigarettes

Real and fake cigarettes can be distinguished from the shredded tobacco manufacturing process and formula structure. The main indicators are:

Aroma: The inherent tobacco aroma of cigarette smoke itself.

Harmony: The aroma is harmonious and consistent, and the characteristics of one of the monomers cannot be felt. Such as flavoring, adding materials and blending with the leaf aroma; the external aroma of externally flavored cigarettes is slightly more prominent, but does not cover the inherent aroma of the cigarette itself.

Office: no essential cigarette smell, slight or obvious bad smell. Such as grassy smell, dry smell, earthy smell, rosin smell, pollen smell, local miscellaneous smell and choking smell, etc.

Irritation: Slight or obvious discomfort caused by smoke. Such as irritation to the nasal cavity, mouth, and throat.

Aftertaste: The taste sensation left behind after the smoke enters the mouth and nose and is exhaled.

Tobacco quality: a. Color: The cut tobacco of mid-to-high-end cigarettes is golden or orange in color, with good gloss and oiliness; b. The tobacco content is low, the tobacco content is small, the shredded tobacco structure is compact, and the cutting width and length are suitable; c. Whether it is blended with expanded tobacco, expanded stems or tobacco flakes (generally tobacco flakes are used in mid- to low-end cigarettes).

Generally counterfeit tobacco: a. The shredded tobacco has poor luster and oiliness, and high tobacco content and stem content; b. The cut tobacco has been dyed and the edges and corners of the cut tobacco turn red; c. Cigarette scraps or unprocessed low-quality tobacco.

3. Distinguish genuine and fake cigarettes from the seals and cigarette labels

Seals: There should be 2 parallel glue marks on the back of the seal of soft box cigarettes, and one of them contains 10 packs. The seals of cigarettes are basically even and aligned; the fake cigarettes are sealed by hand, and the back of the seal is irregularly adhered, and sometimes the entire seal is stuck.

Cigarette labels: The identification method is the same as that of the carton. According to the printing characteristics of each brand trademark, the identification is mainly based on the pattern hot stamping, gloss and color of the small box and the paper texture of the carton.

The trademarks of Shanghai Cigarette Factory and Yuxi Cigarette Factory are printed using imported gravure printing machines. Therefore, the trademarks have bright gloss and clear layers. When observed with a magnifying glass (or carefully observed with the naked eye), the edges of the lines show tiny zigzag shapes (external smoke). This is true for "Three Five", "Jian Pai" and "Marlboro").

The Nanjing Cigarette Factory's "Boutique Nanjing" and "Jiapin Nanjing" small box films use the latest technology "dragon" pattern colored film to enhance the anti-counterfeiting function of the product.
