Some time ago there were horror stories relating to ebay/paypal demanding proof that any counterfeit goods were destroyed rather than returned to sender. I think you can look online and find the old stuff, for example a buyer claiming an incredibly expensive violin was a fake, and showing photos of it smashed beyond recognition to get their refund.
The seller was adamant it was genuine, and had a strong based-on-fact suspicion that a second fake/cheap violin was smashed in the photos and the original was conned out of the seller.
Tl:dr, if it’s fake it may be destroy, not return. (But highly likely return and lose tracked return postage cost)
