Meh to lazy to link you to the real one.

Edit: Got unlazy second link
Saw it a while ago on Neowin apparently Newegg shipped the wrong packages.
Wrong packages? They're freaking fake! Since when does Newegg sell or even buy stickers of fans with intel stickers on some sort of thing?
WOW! I never thought that this would have ever happened!
It's not like newegg is going to check every package they get returned to them that looks legit.
I believe they broke up their dealership with the supplier of these, a while ago.

Intel screwed up and Newegg doesn't check all packages. I mean I would trust Intel.
Intel didn't screw up. One of the distribution companies allowed someone to replace the real ones with fakes.
This is laying down NewEgg for checking almost every new invintory, which may be bad.

It wasn't Intel, it was a Intel Distributer, not owned by Intel, that screwed them up and sent them to Newegg.

NewEgg and Intel are not a fault.
