"You just made me realize, I, too, have been in a fake Apple Store without knowing it! While I was living in Bogotá, Colombia last year I found an Apple Store in the middle of a very trendy area of the city. But nowhere does it show on the Apple website that there is a store in Colombia, nor did I find any authorized retailers there," wrote a reader named Laura.
