In all seriousness, I'd like to know how they produced it. The shutter, according to the seller, is a genuine copal. Did the factory buy in old lenses very cheaply, spruce them up, re-tag them, and then back onto the market? I can't help being a little impressed by their ingenuity, and in this case, if someone bought such a lens, with its 'Kresfnuch', thinking it's genuine then that someone deserved to be taken
Throughout history, someone somewhere has been producing knock-offs or fakes, even on the rare occasion producing something that is actually better than the original. Also, and not wishing to slip off-topic too much, wasn't there are controversy over a Chinese source producing 'fake' handbags which later turned out to be the same factory that was churning out the same handbags for the likes of Gucci and what-have-you?!
