I had a friend in Florida who made his millions selling aircraft parts and he worked part time for the FBI traveling overseas to find the source of counterfeit parts.
He said it’s amazing what one guy in a metal working machine shop can produce.
Probably most of these parts fit together just fine, but they’re made of inferior materials.

So the airline CEOs are telling us they bought parts for jets, from a mostly-fictitious company based in London, which got put on an "approved vendor" list
without so much as a VISIT from the airline maintenance department to physically check them out?

The problem is that a genuine certified aircraft part has a huge cost adder attached. Between certification and testing and liability insurance, a $1 part can cost 50-60 bucks. So the incentive to cheat is quite strong.
I worked at a company that builds piston engines for general aviation. We had fasteners in stores that we sold for over $100 apiece as “Genuine OEM Parts”.
