HDPE markings washed off on first wash. Fake?

I ordered a HDPE 1 liter bottle from a supposed legit retailer in Hong Kong. It arrived today and I gave it a quick first wash and the logo and markings started falling off when I rinsed the mild dish soap off.

I'm not concerned this is a fake bottle. I checked on Gemini with the labels, packaging and it seems to think it is legit and the labels coming off are common on the HDPE bottles.

I can't find many mentions of this issue online so I wanted to ask here.
