Santa is coming soon and kids have most likely submitted their Christmas lists, but there is one toy that is on the naughty list this year. 

Fingerlings are one of the hottest holiday toys, but some customers who purchased them online through Walmart are upset.

Fake versions of the Fingerlings were sold through a third party on Walmart's site. 

These fake goods aren't just a disappointment, but they can also be dangerous. Authorities say they've seized counterfeit toys with lead in them and electronics that can catch fire.
