The sticker is on top and not at the sides. Is it legit?

My previous purchases look like that if I'm mistaken. So I don't think it's unusual.

Check the rest of the packaging for anything alarming:

The cover looks exactly like the pic? So does this mean mine is confirmed fake?

You can do several QC to confirm fake or not.

1. Blue laser printed manufacturing and expiry dates. These dates should correspond to each other by 2 years difference.

2. If you havent ripped the seal, try to hold the seal, and spin the tub.
If the tub can be spun while you are holding the seal, it's fake.

3. The golden holographic seal is part of the black seal. Meaning, you can't pull the golden hologram without breaking the whole seal. If it's externally attached with adhesive, it's fake.

4. Check for the tub quality. If it's fake, you can detect defects at the top part of the tub. There should be two smooth lines. If there are any excess melty plastic materials, it's fake. Original thermaformed tubs, any form of creases are only at the bottom of the tub.

5. Check for the WHEY letters. Fake ones, the letters dont have outlines. Original has grey outlines.

6. If you've opened the item, ori product the protein powder wont stick to the tub nor the inner white seal. Any powder should easily fall right off when you shake the tub if it's genuine.
