Hi everybody
My name is Majid , I live in Iraq,
Two years ago , I bought a used APC , 1500 UX ,It's still working fine , I couldn't find such category on support center , and when asking them of the reason , a reply from territorial (agent in Arabian gulf country) , stated that it's fake !.
Here are some pictures ,
Do you think so ?

i'd have to assume it is. most of the units are manufactured in the phillippines, not the USA as noted on the label. the ones that are made in the US are marked with a US in the part number - such as SUA1000US. none of the recent models have UPS in the part number (like within the last 10 years).

the serial numbers also begin with two letters or a letter and a number with 10 digits after that. although looking at it - it looks as though the sticker got cut off.

it looks fake unfortunately.
