Woman pleads with M'sians to stop buying fake luxury goods
A Malaysian Threads user has gone viral after calling out people who flaunt fake luxury goods, saying it's 'painful to see' and questioning why anyone would fake their way to looking rich. In the post, she said: 'Please don't buy fake watches just to look like you're wearing branded ones. A genuine Bonia is still better than a fake.' She went on to slam the trend of fake jewellery and perfumes: 'It hurts my eyes, like seeing people wear Bangkok gold or fake perfumes. Does life have to be fake just to look rich?' Instead, she urged Malaysians to embrace affordable original brands: 'Just wear Casio ke, Solvil et Titus or Bonia but let it not be fake.'
