Well, first they take brass, then they stamp "28k gold" on it, knowing that anyone who thinks you can go higher than 24k (pure gold) is probably unfamiliar enough with gold to be able to tell the difference between brass and gold.
You don't see even 24k gold jewelry often; it's too soft and doesn't wear well. Jewelry is usually made of a lower gold content alloy (with, usually, copper, silver, and/or nickel) that's substantially more durable than pure gold is.
