I bought a wide variety of NTAG21x-based NFC tags from Amazon. They all work as expected, including the counter mirror feature. However, when I read those tags by the NXP TagInfo app, they all show "Clone tag" in the "IC Manufacturer" field and "Signature could not be verified with NXP public key" in the "Originality check" field.
Are NFC chips in those tags counterfeit or, perhaps, unlicensed? Is it possible that the tag vendors overwrote the ICs with their signatures and thus cannot be authenticated by the NXP public key?
Any suggestions or feedback will be appreciated! Thanks!
