Drakopoulos has reported that the firm, working in cooperation with the Greek police, has completed "a big seizure of fake electronic accessories on October 11th 2016 in Thessaloniki, a result of a well organized anti-counterfeiting investigation."

The firm reports that the counterfeit goods were found in 5 stores located in downtown Thessaloniki. Almost 10,000 fake electronic items were seized, according to Drakopoulos, "including headphones, headsets, chargers, power banks, USB cables, video game controllers, and Bluetooth headsets, infringing various famous brands such as Apple, Beats, Samsung, Sennheiser, Puma, and Sony."

The police arrested the four Chinese merchants and one Greek national operating the raided shops, who now face charges by the public prosecutor.

"All of the seized goods were determined to be counterfeits," Drakopoulos reports, "and will be destroyed following consent given by the infringers."
