I have not, virtually everything I have seen has been rebranded wrong or lower grade parts sometimes even power FET's where the pins are not even in the same order.
I have some fake Toshiba MOSFETs here (2SJ-115/2SK405) that are so good, you cannot tell until you put them on the curve tracer or install them. I bought them from a supplier in China who guaranteed they were genuine. I knew they were not when I bought them, just wanted to see what was in them and whether they even worked. I also have plenty of original genuine ones and side by side, you'd never know, right down to the printing, the colour of epoxy, the plated copper etc. Even the legs are pretty much perfect replicas.
I only buy my obscure, NOS and so-called unobtainium semis from Japan from an OEM supplier I've used on and off for 30 years. Never once had an issue with them.
