An investigation has been launched after counterfeit Ergobaby Omni 360 baby carriers were being sold on eBay. 

The City of London Police said they have identified and contacted a number of customers who have already purchased the fake baby carriers, but are encouraging anyone else who may have unwittingly bought one of these counterfeit items to get in touch.

T/Detective Inspector Kevin Ives, from the City of London Police’s Intellectual Property Crime Unit (PIPCU), said:

“If you have purchased an Ergobaby carrier online, but not via the company’s official website, you could be using a fake.

“A counterfeit item such as this could cause harm to you and your baby and it’s important you stop using it immediately.

“If you think you’ve purchased one of these items, please call 101 and ask to be put through to the City of London Police.”

An Ergobaby spokesperson said:

“We greatly appreciate the City of London Police’s assistance in stopping counterfeit Ergobaby carriers being sold. We know parents and carers want the best and safest products for their children, but counterfeit products can be dangerous and may cause harm as they are not verified by us, and therefore we cannot be sure that they adhere to our rigorous standards of quality and care. We use high quality, certified materials that are produced in independently inspected facilities which adhere to responsible work practices.

“Because of our uncompromised premium quality and construction, genuine Ergobaby carriers come with the ErgoPromise Guarantee, a 10-year warranty on any manufacturing or material defects, to ensure parents’ peace of mind that their carrier is built to last. This dedication to excellence has led to our carriers winning numerous international product awards and health endorsements, only serving to make it more damaging when counterfeits try to deceive parents into believing their fake products are genuine Ergobaby products. 

“We do our utmost to make sure parents are aware of the pitfalls of purchasing counterfeits and remind them that the safest way to ensure they are buying authentic products is by visiting our website and buying there, or through our authorised retailers. If anyone has any concerns that their product is not genuine then they can get in touch with us via our customer support team at customersupport@ergobaby.co.uk.”

Before you go...

As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories & videos which are free from the negative bias which is often directed at the emergency services & NHS by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' back in 2018 was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services & NHS which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of you, our readers.

    Just wanted to say thank you for changing the title fonts from the blue background that was so hard to read. Much more enjoyable now.
