well, shit. Egg on my face I guess.
My very good friend, who knows more than me about these things, and from whom I procured these cigars, will be upset to hear this. Without going into detail, he acquired them from a very reputable and authentic source outside of this country. No black or grey market, and not a place that anyone would think would distribute anything other than authentic goods.
And for what it's worth, though I never found the site you linked and I can't get the verification tool to work on my computer, when I got these I looked at maybe 10 different 'How to Spot a Fake' websites. This box and the cigars held up to every other measure, until you noticed the "C". (the label inside the box has the correct "C"uba) I'm not sure how I missed the font on the C, but every other detail regarding the wrapper lines up with authentic specs. Same with the box itself, from the stickers to the date and manufacturer stamps to the inserts. And I watched him cut the sticker to open the box, saw them lined up perfectly. I'm thinking I'll put some pictures up if I get around to it and if anyone is interested so everyone else can take a look. I even measured everything when they were first given to me; it all checked out.
I'm pretty bummed about the whole thing to be honest. They are very good cigars.
