We desire diamonds . We love them no end. But can you and me tell if they are authentic or not. Of course, not. We all have to take the seller's word for it and therefore, a lot of time, many of us also get duped.

Yet a lot of you, I bet, would not have made a note of the backs of these  earrings .
