Rogue e-commerce websites
Often IP & trademark infringing websites with the same look and feel as the brand owner’s site.
Online marketplaces
B2B marketplaces are now a primary medium for fraudsters to sell and ship counterfeit and grey market products directly to customers in large volumes.
Auction sites
An individual internet auction may seem trivial to the owner of a global brand, but these auctions rapidly escalate into a big problem as they are typically replicated hundreds of times.
Mobile Apps
The latest and fastest growing channel for copycat e-commerce apps, apps linking to counterfeit items & pirated content and/or attempting phishing attacks or distributing malware.
Traffic diversion
In addition to cybersquatting, typosquatting and SEO manipulation, fraudsters are also using social networking sites, blog entries and review sites to divert consumers to their rogue e-commerce websites.
