AFP reports on this Chinese crackdown on fakes:

Chinese authorities have closed a museum which contained scores of fake exhibits, including a vase decorated with cartoon characters billed as a Qing dynasty artefact, state-run media reported Tuesday.
The facility, built in northern China’s Hebei province at a cost of 540 million yuan ($88 million), has “no qualification to be a museum as its collections are fake”, a local official told the Global Times newspaper.
It had been closed, the paper said, while its founders have been placed “under investigation” after local residents accused them of wasting money.
