Thank you very much for these pictures.
could you please inform me where you purchased this helmet from, as this is NO catlike helmet.
if it is no problem for you is there a posibility for you to sent me this helmet to our head office in spain I really would apreciate it.
offfcourse I will arrange an exchange for an original whisper plus, as soon as I get this helmet, therefore I would like to receive your full adress and your head size.
thank you very much for your help regards

Can I trust this ? All this sounds so sketchy..
Would there be a chance that they don't end up sending a helmet ?
Well the Catlike Export Manager has left you a telephone number and a Skype name to call. I would call him and confirm the offer of a replacement, you will get a $275 MSRP original helmet from the makers and perhaps help nab fakers who are putting fellow cyclists in danger of serious injury with possible fake helmets. If it's not a fake helmet then you might have a one of a kind prototype that could be valuable as a collector item. The choice is yours.
Regards
Anthony.
