This one is very annoying. Judge by yourself: 'Memorial Address' CD+DVD officially went on sale on 17 December. And it took the pirates only a week to make a bootleg out of it. This double (!) CD is sold on e-bay from China (silly song names are highlighted in red).

Another version of "Memorial Address", which in this case was not only transformed into a double audio CD, but also given a new name: "Angel's Song"... The information about the track list is not available but I would expect it will be similar to the one above. Sold on e-bay from Hong Kong.

Another version transformed into a double CD, sometimes called "Best of Music", sometimes "Moments" (after one of the singles) and is sold on e-bay from Hong Kong. Pictures of the cover and the background image of track list clearly shows that "Memorial Address" is used here. Please note the enormous amount of stupid grammatical errors (marked in red).

Johanna sent the info about another fake version of "Memorial Address" that is also sold on Yahoo auctions in Japan. A 100% bootleg - two strange looking CDs (instead of CD and DVD), writing in Chinese and an odd sticker on the cover, plus a significant number of grammatical mistakes again...

One more bootleg of "Memorial Address" is sold on Yahoo auctions in Japan. It is again transformed into a double CD and named "The best of Ayumi Hamasaki". A couple of grammatical errors, writing in Chinese on the cover, a round sticker, absolutely different track list...

The information about one more "Memorial Address" bootleg is available thanks to Johanna. This is also sold on Yahoo auctions in Japan. The same round sticker, writing in Chinese and several grammatical errors. Silly, as usual: Ourselvestv-cf-song instead of ourselves, and Me Morial Address instead of Memorial Address...

It seems that Johanna keeps finding bootlegs of "Memorial Address" one after another... This one is also sold on Yahoo auctions in Japan and is now a double video CD (?). Apart from the usual (sticker and writing in Chinese) this one contains quite a number of very stupid grammatical mistakes - please see below... There are also four "items" that I am unable to identify (in the red frame)...

The information about this bootleg is available thanks to Ngks from Malaysia. The cover from "Memorial Address" album was used to produce the bootleg called 'The BEST of Ayumi Hamasaki 32 trks 2 GOLD CD set'... Songs were randomly picked up from different singles/albums and placed in some strange order on these two CDs. Sold on e-bay from the USA.

Another one (double audio CD), from Yahoo auctions in Japan, with usual grammatical errors. It says at the back that it was made by 'Emperor Entertaintmant' in Hong Kong, which dares to claim the copyright on both songs and videos (without knowing how to properly spell their names...). Do avoid stuff like this.
