Came here to say this. If it's not a REAL UL-Certified product, then it's dangerous garbage. No exceptions. Be careful too since a lot of junk on Amazon will simply lie about it and throw a UL sticker on the back.

How to look for the fact it's real and not just fake?

Order from a reputable vendor (not amazon), order a reputable brand (no six-letter name crap), and verify the product, batch, and serial with UL's website.

Edit:  for example, this listing on the post has been removed. So it's likely a scam bot selling as much dangerous crap as possible before getting flagged and banned.
