Fake iPads Flood the Market: What Kiwi Shoppers Need to Know Before Buying Tech in NZ

Fake iPads are making waves, and unsuspecting buyers across the globe—including here in New Zealand—are getting caught out. In this eye-opening exposé, we uncover how counterfeit iPads are slipping into the tech market, what red flags to watch for, and how Kiwi consumers can protect themselves when buying new or second-hand devices.

As demand for affordable tech grows in NZ—especially among students, remote workers, and creative professionals—dodgy listings on Trade Me, Facebook Marketplace, and offshore sites are on the rise. These fake iPads often look convincing on the outside but deliver none of the performance, security, or durability of genuine Apple products.

This video breaks down the key differences between real and fake models, shows how scammers operate, and offers practical tips for tech-savvy Kiwis to avoid being ripped off. With more offshore sellers targeting NZ buyers, it’s never been more important to stay alert.
