AUTHENTICATION CERTIFICATE
A Certificate of Authenticity will be issued for an item that is verified as Authentic. Each authentication certificate is given a unique link, hosted on Entrupy servers for verification and every authentication certificate is backed by Entrupy financial guarantee. The Certificate will be delivered via mail or can be collected in person.
Check the certificate here.
In an unfortunate event, a Letter of Evidence can be used as a supporting document or report for the Counterfeit explaining the inconsistency found on the item can help you to claim and regain the counterfeit purchased funds from further actions (such as police reports, lawsuits).
