ANGOLA ILLEGAL STAMPS
2010
Information and Reference of illegal stamps for Angola dating 2010 and 2011
The following images are of illegal stamps produced for Angola. Please remember that the producers of these illegal stamps 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 Angola visit the UPU WNS website and look at the Angola section.
The Universal Postal Union WNS website
I have found the Colnect online catalog to be helpful as well.
The Colnect Online Catalog for Angola
Check out their Illegal Stamp section as well. There are many listed there including many new ones not listed on my site.

I have also found the StampWorld Catalog an excellent resource.

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.
Many times now (2021) 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 and researchers like myself.
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.

In 2010 the Eastern European producer creates another set in the name of Angola. This one being on the topic of Owls.

Cabinda Stamps
Noting on the issues with the name Cabinda on them. All of them are bogus and illegal. None are recognized by the Angola postal authorities nor the UPU.
It is stated that Clive Feigenbaum was approached and gleefully overprinted the first set of illegal Cabinda stamps. They are from the infamous 1999 Flora
and Fauna set that was delisted in Scott catalog. Here is an example and the bogus story announcing them which was presented on the now proven to be fake
website www.cabinda.net. The "stamps" were not "obsolete". They were and are illegal!

In reality a mass of illegal stamps in the name of the province have been produced and plague the market dating back to the year 2000! Of course the usual illegal stamp
distributors are selling them in mass. Here is a couple examples of 2011 sets. There are many other topics, all produced by (you guessed it) the
British producers. I got these images from a seller on eBay named stamp4all located in Belarus. Very little of what this dealer offers is real.

Here is a link to get to my page on the problem caused by one fraudulent man in unison with the British producer and crew.

Avoid them all!
The production of illegal stamps in the name of Angola seems to have died down again in 2011. Sadly, it all becomes worse.....
