Certainly there's a link to domestic organized crime in some countries - the pirate presses/"publishers" in Chile, for example, are mostly mob-owned and -operated. Internationally...if they're including knock-offs (fake Guccis and such) there's certainly an international component there, as the "fake" items are generally produced in cheap-labour countries (sometimes by the same sweatshops making the "real" items) then exported for re-sale.
