FAKES!
I’ve been buying POWECOM FDA approved masks for months from another retailer, but for more money. I saw them here for cheaper and that they were bought and sold by amazon and thought I would try them out to see if they were real. Each package comes with a verification sticker on it, where you scratch like a lottery ticket and then enter the numbers into the official POWECOM verification site. When I did that, it showed that these were fakes, which I could tell from the sticker immediately! I had a bag left over from a previous verified purchase, as I mentioned above, and the difference was clear. The numbers on this bag were illegible and fabricated. The masks themselves also were of a lesser quality but looked the same as the originals, as did the bag. I contacted AMAZON and they reviewed and acknowledged that the batch I received were indeed fake. They are obviously still being sold but I was told they disposed of the fakes and restocked with a verified batch. Moral of the story...take the time to scratch the sticker (on the bottom of the bag) and input into powecom website. The numbers should be clear and not missing and powecom will let you know if they are safe to wear. Amazon refunded me, of course. I think I Would rather pay the extra to know what I'm getting is safe and effective. So wrong to scam people firing these times. Also the real ones are indeed FDA approved, by EU standards. I researched these for awhile. Other than that, the real ones are fantastic and everyone should try them out!! They ensure safety and are comfy, with a snug fit! Hope those helps. Pay attention to what you put on your face!
