While I doubt the ACCC will do anything (a remarkably useless organisation IMHO) you could take the respective manufacturers to task. Meade tried to cash in on the RC bandwagon some years ago and pass their modified SCT's off as Ritchey's. They got sued in The US, and despite some creative posturing, Meade lost the case. Meade were forced to rebadge the product as their ACF range.

Perhaps so called APO manufacturers need the same lesson.
