Complaint Against a Card: Brand Rights, Photos and Counterfeits
Marketplaces enforce intellectual property protection: a rights holder can file a complaint against a card that uses someone else's brand, trademark or photos, or that sells counterfeit goods. On a justified complaint the platform hides the card or blocks the product, and repeat offenses bring sanctions against the seller account. It works both ways: if someone copies your brand or photos, you can file a complaint too and protect your card.
In short: another company's brand, photos or counterfeit goods mean a risk of being blocked on complaint. Your own brand and photos can be defended the same way.
If the complaint is against you
- Check the grounds: are you using someone else's trademark or photos, or selling a fake?
- If the complaint is mistaken, dispute it through support with proof of your rights (supply contract, brand authorization).
- If the violation is real, remove the third-party content or the product before it escalates to an account block (see what gets you blocked).
How to protect your own brand
- Register a trademark — it is the basis for filing complaints against copycats.
- Use unique photos and rich content — they are harder to steal without leaving a trace.
- File complaints against copycat cards through the platform's rights protection process.

"Can I use someone else's photos on a marketplace?" No. Third-party photos infringe rights; on the rights holder's complaint the card is hidden or the product is blocked. Use your own content.
"How do I protect my brand and photos from being copied?" Register a trademark, use unique content and file complaints against copycat cards through the platform's intellectual property protection process.
