MOZAMBIQUE ILLEGAL STAMPS
MOCAMBIQUE ILLEGAL STAMPS
2019
Information and Reference of illegal stamps for Mozambique dating in 2019
In 2019 Stamperija continues to print stamps for Mozambique in excess but slightly decreases the quantity from the previous year.
The count of stamps produced in the name of Mozambique for this year is 550+.
On the 2016 page I show and explain why Stamperija appears not only to be collaborating with the illegal stamp producers, but also "covering
up" for them as well with bogus webpages designed to divert from what they really are and claiming no knowledge of the existence of illegal
stamps. Aside from the fact that they run these pages even after losing the contract with a specific country acting as if they are the "official"
representative of that countries postal system when in fact they are not!
Stamperija Lie in Regards to Illegal Stamp Awareness for Mozambique
As I stated on the introduction, the WNS system is short on what is real. Unfortunately they stopped listing the stamps of Mozambique in 2006 and
have nothing from that time forward.
I have found the Colnect online catalog to be very helpful. Sadly because of the glut of abusive issues it is a pain to go through all the pages.
The Colnect Online Catalog for Mozambique
Check out their Illegal Stamp section as well. It is upgraded as of 2023 and shows counterfeits that may be missing here.

I have found the Stampworld.com Catalog to be very helpful as well but there are problems. Again, because of the abuse many of the pages are extremely long.
They are listing some of the illegal stamps there as if they are ok simply because one rouge catalog continues to list them. The 2004 (which they list as
a 2006) EUROPA "issue" for one.
The Stampworld Online Catalog for Mozambique
Again, I say the major catalogs should stick with the rules they portray in not listing abusive, overproduced stamps that have no evidence of postal
usage. Sadly in the recent years they are breaking their own rules and ethics by listing them. At the rate Stamperija is going, Scott catalog will have to add
another catalog just to cover them! Shame on the editors for bowing down to abusive stamp agencies. More than likely their are some "bad apples" within the editing
departments who are getting kickbacks for getting the garbage listed!
Here we go!
Many of the following illegal stamps can be found as imperforates and as color proof sets as well. Many exist on fake First Day Covers too.
Most times now (2022) 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 experts and savvy collectors.
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.
2019
In 2019 as stated, Stamperija continues production of abusive stamps in the name of Mozambique. Topnimarka continues producing
counterfeits in the name of Mozambique at an alarming rate, but does decrease production from the numbers produced in 2018.
On the Colnect catalog you will find that all the 2019 "issues" made by Stamperija are listed with only Yvert catalog numbers. Now not even Michel
appears to be listing them.
Scott catalog realized some time ago what Stamperija was doing and stopped listing them. They should be maintaining the policy for
all countries this agent over produces stamps for. For 2019 the Colnect catalog notes all of the Stamperija "issues" stating in the majority:
"Although this issue was authorized by the Mozambique postal administration, it was not sold in Mozambique, but only distributed by the
Mozambique philatelic agency for distribution on the novelty market."
Noting the change on the last part from "and was only distributed to the new issue trade by Mozambique's philatelic agent." to "but only distributed by the
Mozambique philatelic agency for distribution on the novelty market." Interesting yes? Noting also as of the end of February 2022 that the Stampworld online
catalog is only listing 36 of the Stamperija stamps in souvenir sheet forms and then just stops! No more listings on the Stampworld site after 2019. The reasons
are unknown. Possibly because of the massive glut of abusive issues this agent pumps out every year causing the site to have to list hundreds of items thus
causing a lot of bandwidth problems. Possibly because Yvert appears to be the only catalog still listing them giving the Stampworld catalog editors a clue
to where these abusive stamps are heading. Nowhere. Just like the illegal stamps, the styles and repetitious churning out of the same topics year after
year makes the desire to continue collecting them blow away into the wind!
In 2015 the Russian based dealers who I believe are also the producers appear. The company is called Topnimarka.com located in Moscow Russia.
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 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.
The Russian based company has produced the following counterfeit illegal stamps dating 2019 in the name of Mozambique. They are not commonly seen
on the main stamp market because we are fighting for you to keep them off the main market. Should this company be allowed to run accounts
on the main stamp venues like eBay and Delcampe, you will see a new flood of illegal stamps worse than ever seen before. This company is consistently
trying to create new accounts on the venues to move them into the main stream market. Should you see them on sites like eBay and Delcampe, you can
report them to me and I can assure you that they will not be there long!
I have discovered that this company is producing counterfeit stamps in later years and back dating them. For Mozambique this is the case for a couple
sets dating 2019. He has produced 34 different sets dating 2019 of which 2 of the sets were made after 2019 and back dated. More could be added at
any time. Avoid them all!

In 2019 the criminal producer begins a new style using "cut to shape" counterfeit souvenir sheets.

I found these counterfeit illegal stamps were being sold by Topnimarka as user kir30kirill on eBay in early 2020 before the user was kicked off for selling counterfeits.
This "style" appears to be an attempt by the criminal producer to create counterfeit souvenir sheets that are similar in style to some Stamperija "issues". They were being
offered only as souvenir sheets of four perforated or imperforate. They are not offered on the topnimarka website.
