Well, there ARE people out there who make counterfeit cassette tapes.
Often you can tell by looking closely at quality of manufacture
(or lack thereof). If you're still suspicious, send one to the
(real) manufacturer and ask them.  They like to hear about this
kind of thing; and I would expect them to either tell you it's
genuine or say it's not and offer to exchange it for a real one
if you help them track down the source.

This hasn't happened to me -- just speculation.
