GAMBIA ILLEGAL STAMPS
2017

Information and Reference of illegal stamps for Gambia

The following images are of illegal stamps produced for The Gambia. 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 the Gambia I have found the Colnect online catalog to be helpful.

The Colnect Online Catalog for The Gambia

I have found the Stampworld.com Catalog to be helpful as well.

The Stampworld Online Catalog for The Gambia

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 counterfeit illegal stamps.

You will find the styles and designs of the following illegal stamps completely different.

Here we go!

Sellers that call these "private", "locals", "Cinderella's", "unauthorized" are deceiving you. They are counterfeit 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.

2017

In 2015 the Russian based dealers who I believe are also the producers appear. The company is called Topnimarka.com located in Moscow Russia. The user name was kir30kirill on eBay although since November 2019 the user has been kicked off. They have created a new website called stamps-world.eu as well in 2019. Everything they are selling is fake and counterfeit stamps. They are of pure evil and were not listing on eBay by country name to avoid detection and mass producing counterfeit illegal stamps in the name of many countries. The "styles" unique to themselves, these people are producing and selling counterfeit stamps at a massive rate dating to current times. They are even producing fake stamps for countries controlled by Stamperija. Stamperija's owner has stated that he knows who most of the counterfeit producers are and has some control over stopping their productions at least for countries he has contracts with. This is not the case for this producer. Being located in Russia, I guess they believe that nobody can stop them. I am exposing them which is the first step. I will note them all "Russian Made Counterfeit Illegal Stamps" should the British producers fire up again....

In 2016 The Gambia reduced their number of topical issues considerably. I have found both online catalogs mentioned above to be quite accurate. Since 1989 the country has had many topical issues produced. I note that it appears they have become more conservative starting in 2016.

In 2016 because there has been no retaliation against the Russian producer for any of the 2014-2015 counterfeits they produced, they have become emboldened. Since then this one producer has created and is placing on the market this nightmare glut of counterfeit illegal stamps. Each year to present time (2019) this producer is producing more and more counterfeits. It needs to be stopped not just for the Gambia, but all the countries this producer is targeting..

In 2016 the Russian counterfeiter produced 25 sets. This is at least everything dating 2016 that is presented on their website. In 2017 they produced 37 sets. In other words....it gets worse.

After a back check in November 2020 I have found this criminal has produced yet another set dating 2017. It is noted as such.

In 2018 this one producer continues the massive onslaught of counterfeit illegal stamps in the name of the Gambia. Producing 44 more sets and continuing. Why is the UPU allowing this to go on?
