this is taken from another board
From Satdudez:

Yep this is true - dirty underhand tactics by duolabs - I have five cas2 here as stock, two are original three are fake. All came from the same trade supplier in Germany and I paid the same price for all of them. I had no idea there were even any fake ones out there.

How to tell difference:

Look underneath the cas2 - there is an indented square area in the middle (as though there should be a sticker there) If this indented area has a double line top and bottom that would indicate a fake.

Also looking from underneath through the plastic casing.- where the cam is inserted you should see three plastic struts that balance the cam - one near the middle of the slot, two at the edges. If these are missing it is a fake.

If you have a fake DO NOT LOAD CAS STDUIO 6!!! This contains malicious (and maybe illegal?) code that WILL kill your Cas 2 with NO PRIOR WARNING. After the event theier software will tell you that they just killed your CAS2

The reason I say illegal - is it OK to write and distribute malicious code that damages the property of customers, no matter how moral your reasons may be?? I think not.

Also Duolabs admit their Cas Studio 6 will kill some original CAS2 as well. In this case they ask you post it to Italy where they will repair it and send it back with a "free gift" - Do you really want the hassle???

If you stick to the perfectly working earlier verisons of cas studio you will be fine.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
