Alert! Beware of fake websites or social sites selling counterfeit OMRON products

It has been brought to our attention that there are some counterfeit OMRON devices being manufactured and distributed illegally with OMRON logo, sold by unauthorized sellers in numerous countries, including in Malaysia.

We have received reports from unsuspecting customers who have been duped into buying such FAKE Omron devices and would like to warn all customers to stay vigilant!

These unauthorized sellers are selling products such as non-invasive Blood Glucose Monitors and Watches that claims to not require pricking of the skin for blood sample. These products appear to bear the OMRON logo on the packaging and advertisement to mislead customers into believing that these are Omron products.

Some of these listings even make reference to Omron’s website, contact details or employee images, which are fraudulently done. We have seen such products sold on Facebook marketplaces as well as fraudulent websites containing OMRON in their domain name.

Some indicative images of the products are set out below:

Note: OMRON facebook is imposed as OMRON-Malaysia’s and this page OMRON non-invasive blood glucose meter (https://omron.healthcare-ap.store/sale-sugar-monitor) or pages of similar links are not affiliated with OMRON.
 

Please be warned that such products are not manufactured by OMRON.

We cannot confirm the safety requirements and quality standards of these products.

We are currently in the process of investigating these counterfeit products and intend to pursue legal action against these manufacturers for infringement of OMRON’s intellectual property.
