Dr. Dre’s Beats Electronics is suing a group of websites based in China, alleging that the sites are making billions of dollars in profit by selling counterfeit Beats Electronics headphones, according to a lawsuit obtained by TMZ.
The story says that the fake headphones sport the “b” logo featured on Beats’ headphones and have generated $135 billion in revenue.
The lawsuit seeks to halt the sales of the knock-off headphones and to seize ownership of the fraudulent domain names that sell the bogus headphones.
TMZ says Beats Electronics also wants all profits from the sale of the counterfeit Beats Electronics headphones.

Apple? Suing someone? No way!!! LOL
$135.00 isn’t that much. That’s ridiculous.
Proofread your titles.
tell him one more time anony
I think that’s supposed to say $135 million (if that).
No way people are making $135 BILLION off fake headphones.
Umm… How are they counterfeit? The Beats headphones are made in China, just like everything else, LOL
Many companies have tried to sue Chinese companies for many years for the same reason. How many have won their cases? Zero
NOT going to happen. I know people that sell those, you can get them easy for 50-80$ online.
Guess what? Its not going to happen lol
There is a saying in China, they make the real beats in the factory from 9-5 and the knockoffs from 7pm-3am. Look, if you want to make things in China that cost $14 dollars are you sell them for $250, don’t be mad when they get knocked off. Shit, I bought a pair in Hong Kong for $30 and they work just as good. Maybe if they weren’t cheap fucks and made things in America they wouldn’t get knocked off so easy.
Nah, China’s Spies would just hack the U.S., steal the plans, and make knock offs. There’s no stoppin those little gremlins
“I bought a pair in Hong Kong for $30”
You were never in hong kong
Not everybody on this site is from the hood dipshit.

NOT GONNA HAPPEN! IT IS LIKE SUING THE CHINESE GOVERNMET, WASTING THEIR MONEY AND TIME.
CHINA DON’T CARE
I’m suing Dre for making me wait 13 years so far for Detox. Damn son
co-sign
BULLSHIT That figure is so unrealistic. Beats has 1 billion in revenue a year. How could fakes generate 135 times that?
Fuck those headphones anyway. Buy Beyerdynamic headphones in the same price range and you’ll get actually great sound quality and durability.
Well, we all know that all the Chinese do is steal everything in order to make cheap knock offs. It’s their legacy. A nation of thieves.
Most the fake headphones go for under 100 dollars LOL so even if they were at 135 dollars that would mean 1 billion people have purchased fake beats… which means 1 out of 7 people in the WORLD are rocking fake beats LOL
