In the past several years, incidents of counterfeit stamps and postage scams have skyrocketed, with Forever Stamps being a popular fraud target. While the only 100% certain way to ensure your Forever Stamps are authentic is to purchase them directly from the US Postal Service (USPS), there are signs you can look for to check if your stamps are legitimate or not.
Just like counterfeit bills, counterfeit stamps can sometimes be hard to spot. To help, Seema and Fahim, wikiHow’s official Shipping and Logistics Experts, co-authored a piece for the popular educational site this past February on how to identify fake Forever Stamps. Check it out here.
At Island Ship Center, we purchase our Forever Stamps that we resell directly from the USPS, so you can be sure that they’re legit. We sell them individually or by the roll.
We look forward to serving you soon!
