MADAGASCAR ILLEGAL STAMPS
2018

Information and Reference of illegal stamps for Madagascar

The following images are of illegal stamps produced for Madagascar. Please remember that the producers of these illegals are not only greedy, they are crude and sometimes disgusting which is the nature of these people.

To find out what stamps are real and legitimate for Madagascar visit the UPU WNS website and look at the Madagascar section.

The Universal Postal Union WNS website

I have found the Colnect online catalog to be helpful as well although there are "conflicts" between what is listed there and what is on the WNS system at times.

The Colnect Online Catalog for Madagascar

Check out their Illegal Stamp section as well. It will help you verify many as well including newer counterfeits produced by the British illegal stamp producer.

The Colnect Online Catalog for Madagascar Illegal Stamps

I have also found the Stampworld online catalog to be very useful as well although some controversial issues (Mainly Impressor S.A. unauthorized stamps) are listed there.

The Stampworld Online Catalog for Madagascar

Or use a respectable catalog like Scott or Stanley Gibbons. Do not listen to these dealers trying to convince you they are something other than illegal stamps.

Here we go!

Many of the following illegal stamps can be found as imperforates and as color proof sets as well. Some exist on fake First Day Covers too.
Most times now (2019) the souvenir sheet sets and sheetlet sets are sold individually. Many times the stamps have been removed from the sheetlets and souvenir sheets. All of these "tactics" are used to avoid detection by UPU circular descriptions.

Sellers that call these "private", "locals", "Cinderella's", "unauthorized" are deceiving you. They are illegal stamps produced by a stamp dealer that is bent on ripping you off! Some sellers state "we offer them because they are on the market". Well how about you use a different dealer because that seller is "on the market"? If the stamp societies, auction sites and all other venues kicked these sellers off of their sites then they would have to comply or lose their ability to sell anything.

The following images are free for the use of all to use to alert the public to them. If anyone wants to make a public list of users on eBay, Delcampe and elsewhere who are selling these issues....fine by me since the UPU, PWMO and others appear to have given up or have not been updated in years.

If you have purchased any of these stamps from a dealer or if that dealer offers them, you should avoid that dealer! You will only be supporting illegal stamp makers who are only ripping you off.

2018

The production of illegal stamps for Madagascar continues. Namely because of no retaliation against dealers of them and no new circulars being generated at the UPU since 2016. This year a massive onslaught of this fake garbage is placed on the market. New "styles" are introduced and a couple of new (actually old) major illegal stamp dealers join in the frenzy. I note the British producer (or should I say his son) returns on the scene with a vengeance.

Madagascar has been consistently updated with their new issues on the WNS system so you can depend on the system telling you what has been officially issued. My advise is to not buy the newest Madagascar stamps unless you buy them directly from the post or wait until they are listed on the WNS system.

The 2016 circular 39 again stresses that you can view all legally issued stamps for Madagascar on the WNS website.

The same dealers (or should we call them "stealers") are selling them. More evidence they are connected with the illegal stamp producers hands down! Why? Because they are selling them during the year of production!

The following key sellers are proudly pumping out 2018 illegal stamps on eBay as of and before March 2019. I note very few "Eastern Europe made" illegal stamps in the name of Madagascar were made for 2018. The UK based producers apparently reign supreme for Madagascar in these latter years. I also note the "new styles" are actually the "old" Feigenbaum styles. Apparently that gang is back after laying low since 2016!

One has them noted as Cinderella Souvenir Sheets. They are not cinderella's! They are illegal stamps run off on a cheap printer by and for a stamp dealer bent on RIPPING YOU OFF!!
As for all the others offering this junk today...they all say nothing and are calling them stamps. Total deceit.

In 2018 Madagascar officially issued 1 stamp according to the WNS system, Colnect Online Catalog and other catalogs. All are in agreement with this.

Madagascar 2018 15th Anniversary of District 920 Indian Ocean of the International Inner Wheel: Reunion-Madagascar Scott 1653
Issued April 28, 2018 Printer is Office national des Postes Tunisie


Madagascar 2018 15th Anniversary of District 920 Indian Ocean of the International Inner Wheel: Reunion-Madagascar Souvenir Sheet Scott 1653a
Issued April 28, 2018 Printer is Office national des Postes Tunisie

It seems none of the online catalogs nor the WNS system list this souvenir sheet. Scott catalog does. Why the conflict?



It is therefore understood that any stamp dating 2018 (other than the above issues) in the name of Madagascar is a counterfeit illegal stamp!

Following are images of the illegal stamps I have found offered for Madagascar dating 2018. There may and probably are more. All of these I found in searches on eBay and Delcampe and all are illegal stamps made by producers bent on ripping you off!

I present them in alphabetical order of titles as there is no logical order for illegal stamps.

These have no date on the stamps. So how do you know when they were really made? By the word of a criminal counterfeit stamp dealer? I would not even think twice in giving this guy the boot...

Illegal Stamps in the name of Madagascar Being Disbursed by Topnimarka.com
Мадагаскар Не настоящие Незаконньӏе Штампьӏ по
topnimarka.com Филателистический салон а также stamps-world.eu

It is in 2016 that this criminal actually started producing illegal stamps in the name of Madagascar. We can see this as the sets produced dating 2014 and 2015 are all back dated. When I updated this page in early 2020 after discovering this clown on eBay, we did not know the extent that this criminal producer had gone in producing counterfeit illegal stamps in the name of Madagascar. We found after finding this companies websites that it is much worse than originally thought. This section now updated in 2021.

You will notice numerous sets without the set of single stamp souvenir sheets. I have been told by other sources that this criminal dealer will create new counterfeits on requested topics. In other words, a customer asks him if he knows of any stamps with a particular topic such as a certain car or plane on it. Within a month or two this dealer will suddenly say he has found it after creating a new counterfeit set with the requested topic in it. Many being the sets that have no single stamp souvenir sheets included.
This dealer sometimes will then create more sets on the same topic using different country names on them, hoping that customer will buy them as well.

For 2018 sets in the name of Madagascar I have found that 12 sets were back dated. They have produced 39 different sets dating 2018 and could add more at any time. Avoid them all!
