Probably Stolen cigarette authenticity is checked visually: inspect the pack with the magnifying glass and compare each marked feature with the in-game identification handbook before accepting it. A cheap offer does not establish that a pack is genuine.

Probably Stolen cigarette authenticity check
Open the cigarette pack's inspection view with the magnifying glass.
Bring up the relevant handbook page for that brand and product.
Compare the logo shape, printed colours and seal with the reference image.
If a feature differs, choose the issue that matches the visible discrepancy.
Decide on the trade only after resolving authenticity and price separately.
Compare the pack to the handbook
The early tutorial introduces the tools during a suspect shipment. Keep the handbook visible while you inspect; memory is less reliable than matching the current reference. If your next question is about an item's value rather than a fake feature, follow the appraisal checklist.
After finding a fake
Confronting a seller without an observed mismatch can cost reputation. A counterfeit can also be relabeled and resold, but that is a deliberate Security risk. If the item is contraband or heated, use the inspection guide before putting it on open display.
