Counterfeiting: everything, everywhere
Counterfeiting affects all industries: food, pharmaceuticals, tobacco, cosmetics, clothing and accessories, automotive, electronics, electrical, mechanical, toys and games, and more. Counterfeiting is no longer just about big business. Counterfeiters increasingly target small and medium-sized businesses that have gained some degree of reputation in their field. Counterfeiting is everywhere online, and counterfeiters use every possible means to sell counterfeit products. They multiply marketing strategies. They impose their presence on B2B and B2C market platforms. They constantly come back to life with more convincing genuine-like websites and steal the identity of your brand on social networks and mobile apps. In short, they want to steal look like your brand identity, and divert your business revenues.
