NEWS UPDATE/S:

* Black or "subdued" current Police badges are not known to be issued.

* Be aware of obviously illegal, Queen's Crown, COMPOL and Christmas Island junk status, fakes; the "emu" and "roo" are bald (have no feathering) and fake COMPOL KC badges with "flat" (not bulging) crowns.

* Be aware of some new, "crappy looking" ACT, Norfolk Island, APS, COMPOL and Customs "Border Protection" bullion badges, not only do they look amateurish, some of these badges never even existed.

STAMP OUT UNAUTHORISED FAKES!

EMAIL: REPORT@OZBADGE.COM

The unauthorised manufacturing of any type of insignia using the word: "POLICE", (no matter how old it looks) is illegal.

Selling these unauthorised, junk status, "fakes" as genuine, can be considered "FRAUD".
