Merch Store Impersonation Check
Fake merch stores monetize your audience using copied branding and counterfeit products. This workflow helps you verify official storefronts and remove dangerous clones.
What You Can Confirm
- • Distinguish official stores from counterfeit lookalikes.
- • Reduce fan losses caused by fraudulent merchandise pages.
- • Build structured evidence for host and platform reports.
Common Risk Signals
- • Store uses your branding but links to unknown checkout providers.
- • Product catalog copies your releases without official announcements.
- • Contact and refund details conflict with your known policies.
Evidence to Save
- • Storefront URL, screenshots, and payment destination details.
- • Product-page comparisons between fake and official listings.
- • Audience reports of failed delivery or payment fraud.
Response Workflow
- Search for your brand plus merch, shop, and store variants.
- Validate payment domains against your approved commerce stack.
- Document copied products, logos, and policy discrepancies.
- Report counterfeit storefronts to host, payment provider, and platform.
