It's crucial to be aware of the issue of counterfeit products, as they can be of lower quality and may even pose safety risks. To ensure that you are purchasing genuine ORION products, here are some steps you can take:

1. **Buy from Authorized Retailers:** As mentioned, purchasing from authorized ORION retailers is the most reliable way to ensure the authenticity of the product. You can find a list of authorized retailers on here.

2. **Check for Authenticity:** Many reputable brands use security features like holographic stickers, unique serial numbers, or QR codes to help customers verify the authenticity of their products. Always check for such features when you receive your product.

3. **Price Comparison:** Be cautious of prices that seem too good to be true. Counterfeit products are often sold at significantly lower prices than genuine ones. If the price is significantly lower than what you'd expect, it might be a red flag.

4. **Contact the Us:** If you are unsure about a particular seller, reach out to our customer support to verify if the seller is authorized to distribute our products. We can provide you with the necessary information to make an informed decision.

5. **Secure Payment Methods:** Use secure payment methods when making online purchases. Credit cards and secure online payment systems can offer you some protection in case you receive counterfeit products.

7. **Trust Your Instincts:** If something about the transaction doesn't feel right, it's better to err on the side of caution and avoid making the purchase.

Counterfeit products are a common issue in many industries, so being vigilant and doing your due diligence can help you avoid purchasing fake products.
