Blatant rip off & duplicate stores.

I sell invitations on Ebay and luckily I have been so successful that it has become my main source of income.

Yesterday I came across two sellers who have both blatantly ripped off my designs. Place my original next to their rip off and there is no difference - except the quality of the work.

I have sent a cease and desist letter to both.  One apologised and removed the offending listing straight away.

The other has not replied and is not removing her listings, in fact she listed another.

Today I did a quick search and have found the seller who refuses to take down the listing has 2 accounts from which she is selling exactly the same items.

Is this even allowed? And if not, how do we report it?

Lol

 

she's done a runner while a whole bunch of other peoples money... except most of the listings are only worth about $10 each.

 

Hope that $350 bucks is enough to buy her a new life in Mexico lol

Oh a fantasy theory thread ....

Let me add another few scenarios...

The seller died..

The seller became very ill ...

Ebayers reported the seller for copyright infringement and the policy violations left the seller suspended and locked out of their account ...
