This is how you tell if a coach bag is real or not. There’s lots of fake bags going around on Poshmark and we as a community need to get these bags and sellers removed. I’m in no way authenticating any bag I’m simply just letting you know what to check for before buying a bag on Poshmark or anywhere. I’ll be adding more on how to spot MK fakes LV TB and more so keep watching my closet

Do you have any knowledge on accessories? I’ve been looking at some hang tag/fobs and there are two styles that are similar but also different. I can’t find any info on them online and can only assume one style must be counterfeit. Multiple listings for the same two styles. It’s the Disney Minnie Glove. One hangs from a finger and one from the wrist.

@supermandy Hi! No I don’t but I’ll try my best to find out for you. What do you mean by one hangs from the wrist and one hangs from the finger? Could you perhaps post a pic in your closet of the two so I’ll know what I’m looking for and tag me? To tag someone just put @ in front of their name like @faithoverfear07 or to ask anyone a question that sends people a notification so they’ll see your question

@faithoverfear07 thank you for your help! I’ll add the split pic of both tags to a random listing in my closet (like washi tape not for sale) and tag you.

@hbposhresale unfortunately your bag is a replica coach bag. 😔 It's illegal to sell counterfeit bags and against Posh Mark policy.

@icekriztlz Lol it’s fine. It’s just a older coach but you can also go to google and type in the serial number of any bag and if it’s authentic it’ll come up. It looks real to me it’s just a older Coach

@bdjg041 this post can help explain why that Carly hobo is fake. The logo pattern on the outside is uneven & offcenter, stitching is crooked, there's breaks in the hardware rings, it's missing half the serial #, price tags are never hung on ball chains & one dead & immediate giveaway for a guarantee fake is the monogram pattern on both linings at the same time. Coach never does that. Sorry but that bag is not authentic.

@angelwillden this post will help show you how that Coach bag is not authentic. Logo pattern on the outside is uneven and offcenter, stitching is crooked, there's breaks in the hardware rings, patch & hangtag are both puffy & inaccurately impressed and serial number is invalid. Fake bags have fake patches so it's always best to never assume. Hope this helps 💗 Posh doesn't allow the sale of replicas cause its illegal so just be careful.

@adrineiman This post might be helpful in regards to the brown & tan bag. The logo pattern is slanted & not perfectly centered, that's not a legit Coach price tag, Coach doesn't wrap handles of new bags in clear plastic, there's no serial # & one dead & immediate giveaway for a guarantee fake is the C pattern on both linings at the same time. I honestly hate giving people that news but Id rather say something than see an ambassador unknowingly selling a fake & have it fall back on them. 💗

@starr317x this post can help you in regards to that purple bag. The logo pattern on the outside is uneven and off-centered, there's breaks in the hardware rings, stitching is crooked, the serial number is a dead & immediate giveaway for a guaranteed fake & Coach never puts the logo pattern on both linings at the same time.

@lovelatinlucy this post will help you see how that black belt bag is definitely not authentic, despite being claimed to be. Logo pattern is uneven and off-centered, that zipper pull is sloppy, crooked & slanted, Coach doesn't emboss their straps & one dead & immediate giveaway for a guaranteed dupe is the logo pattern on both linings at the same time. Hope that helps 💗

@sjdriggers01 This post will help you see how that brown signature bag is definitely not authentic, despite being claimed to be. Coach never made a design like that for starters but the logo pattern on the outside is uneven and off-centered, stitching is crooked, interior lining is wrong and model # is invalid. Fake bags have fake patches so it's always best to never assume. Hope that helps 💗

@lovelatinlucy Good. There's a chance they didn't know or thought it was genuine but regardless, the responsibility still falls on the seller. I hope you get your money back. Good luck with sales and happy poshing 💖 Watched your posh show for a bit but had to return to work. Great job!!

@lovelatinlucy It’s actually a crime to sell replicas as the real thing. A lady who sold at a local flea market here got 5 years in prison for selling replicas as the real thing. It’s a federal crime

@vspinkobsessed2 This post can also help show why every one that I "liked" is not authentic. Either the outside logo patterns are uneven & off-centered, logo is on both linings, real Coach serial numbers would never start with the letter U, there's breaks in the hardware rings, Coach won't be printed on crossbody straps, among many other telltale signs. There was quite a few replicas. Hope this helps 💗

@methmeth4 This might help show how that checkbook wallet is not authentic. The logo pattern should match itself identically on each side of the center buckle stripe. The leather shouldn't be cracked or plastic looking, the stamp on the inside should be in the bottom right hand corner & Coach never puts the logo pattern on both linings at the same time. Hope that helps 💗

@christalyn_m This post should help you see how that pink wallet is not authentic. Logo pattern is uneven, the words GENUINE, CRAFTSMANSHIP, SUPERIOR, DETAIL & ENDURING are all misspelled on that creed, hardware is plated & serial # is completely invalid. Shame that even Posh Ambassadors can't be trusted on here. Smh

@geminigewlss Hi did this item sell that your talking about? If it did go to buyer let them know. That’s what some of us has started doing now when people refuse to believe us or don’t care and sell anyway. There’s so many closets on here selling fakes and I know a few people is threatening to report posh because they’ve been reported to poshmark these fakes and posh isn’t going anything about it. I’m scared posh will eventually get shut down. I’m not sure how that works

@faithoverfear07 Posh is definitely in danger of getting caught up w/ all the new laws that are holding selling platforms responsible for not being more diligent about the removal of fakes. PM's is 1 of the worst by recruiting fellow poshers to give their opinion on fakes, having no knowledge/experience authenticating. It's all a scam. On the side note, no, that pink signature replica has not sold yet & hopefully it's removed before someone gets ripped off.

@geminigewlss There’s a closet here one of many but me and some more people has reported it more than once. It’s bluuxoeyez she’s making a killing selling fakes and poshmark has yet to take down her closet.

@naomi_vitullo This post may help explain how that black satchel bag is not authentic. Logo pattern is uneven & off-centered, stitching is crooked & hangtag is a known replica. That's just a few telltale signs on this bag but there are many more. Hope that helps 💗

@kowusu1978 This post can help explain how that cream denim & leather bag is not authentic. Exterior logo pattern is inaccurate, there's breaks in the hardware rings, it's missing an entire section of the serial number & one dead & immediate giveaway for a guaranteed dupe is the logo pattern on both linings at the same time. Hope that helps 💗

@woodrios1981 This post will help explain how that duffle bag is definitely not authentic. Logo pattern is uneven & off-centered, real leather doesn't peel like that & the model # is for an entirely different bag. Removing the creed pic & deleting my comment seems a little sus, like a deliberate intention to scam someone. Especially at that price, which would be too high even if it was real. What a shame.

Thank you so much for this! I would want you to tell me, if I haven’t caught it. I’m in the midst of authenticating all my Designer and Luxury. Big sellers, who sell every day in luxury, a big name, sold me a fake. They are still selling because of their size. I have received several even from a live share show, that were represented as a Tory and a Radley. Posh did nothing. I have quite the little stack to donate. The homeless ladies will appreciate having something to carry food in. 🤷♀️♥️

@allnew2u2 If you don’t mind could you tell me who it was? I’ll report them as well it’s ridiculous how these sellers are getting by with selling replicas and nothing is being done about it. If you don’t want to tell me here you can her four two three five three four 6154. I’m sorry that happened to you 😡😡

@allnew2u2 Unfortunately, it's happening alot more than people realize on these platforms. In the past 18 months, I have acquired a list of over 250 Posh Ambassadors who have listed counterfeit handbags or accessories. We recently reported an ambassador with over 150 counterfeit designer items. Posh deleted the account and the next day she was selling the same fake items. So they deactivated a 2nd time for a week and took away her Ambassador status. It's infuriating.
