Might not even technically be “fake”. Apple has ghost shift problems just like every other major manufacturer that contracts out semiconductors to China. I’ve heard that Apple drives such a hard bargain with some of their suppliers that selling ghost shift parts and the parts that fail QC to counterfeiters and repair shops is the only way they make any profit. The Apple contract pays for the factory and the bills but they make the real money on the side.
