The issues related to counterfeiting and counterfeit purchase intentions have remained a key concern for researchers as well as practitioners in the marketing field.

The results further disclose that individuals are engaged in buying impulsively without thinking about their economic condition and they do extra purchases when their mood is not good and when they are with friends
