Rip off Vodka help!!!!

While on a recent short holiday to Blackpool, my boyfriend and I found the beer prices a little less than agreeable! Plus we didn't want to bother looking any furthur down the promenade due to getting mithered by stall holders!, I mean come on, I know they need to make money but do they have to horrible about it if you say no?!?!?!?
Anyway after a while we went to our B+B and my boyfriend decided to go to the off license, also very overpriced!
He decided to buy some Kommisioner russian vodka, probably retails for a fiver, charged him a tenner!
When he brought it back I remembered seeing a report on either Watchdog or Crimewatch a while back about a counterfeit russian vodka that people were ripping off it was potentially fatal if you drank enough of it or there was some sort of poison in it!!
Can anyone remember if its the same named vodka I cant remember. I keep thinking about the name Romanof if thats even a vodka. They said there were ways to tell if it was counterfeit like checking the label etc but I just cannot remember the name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
neither of us have drank it cos were both a bit dubious!!!!
please help I want a vodka and coke!!!!!!!!
