Great question and we’re glad you asked. If you purchased your Heavy Hitters product from one of our licensed dispensaries found in our store locator the product is authentic. We do not sell products to unlicensed dispensaries or dispensaries outside the state of California. If you want to confirm further, we recommend you email info@heavyhitters.co . We take counterfeit products very seriously and would be delighted to assist you.
The best way to avoid scams and counterfeits is to only shop from legal dispensaries and delivery services. Leafly.com is a great resource that only lists licensed retailers. Here’s a few things to keep an eye out for when purchasing cannabis:
1. Licensed cannabis manufacturers cannot sell directly to a customer, and can only sell to licensed distributors. Though some brands’ websites have plug-ins now that allow you to place orders with dispensaries or delivery services, it is plainly stated and visible on those services that the cannabis is being purchased from a different source.
2. Always check for a RETAIL license number. It is a California state requirement for all cannabis licensees to post their license number on their websites. Most will put this on the bottom of the page, or in the contact info. A license number will look like: C10-xxxxxxx-LIC. If there’s not one listed… RED FLAG.
3. It’s a federal crime to ship cannabis through any mail systems, public or private. If a site is offering to do so… RED FLAG
4. If a site only accepts alternative payment options like Venmo, CashApp, or cryptocurrency like bitcoin… RED FLAG
5. If you have to pay $200-$300 at a time this is also a RED FLAG. This is usually indicative of a scam online and they’re most likely not planning on sending you any product and just want the most money out of you the first time.
At most licensed dispensaries and delivery services in California, Nevada, and most recently New York.
We’re proud to be part of the launch of New York’s first legal dispensary – Union Square Travel Agency on 62 E. 13th St., NYC 10003.
