NEW YORK (OCN) — NYPD seized Lady Gaga clothing line in New York yesterday. Actually, these were not the original clothing line which fans are awating but fakes created to make a buck in Chinatown, NY.

Police caught on while visiting the Craigslist website (which had a copy of the ad for sunglasses) during normal patrols and sent UC’s to investigate further.

The fakes of the House or Haus of GaGa clothing line and accessories could have brought in over US$500,000 according to authorities.
