How Chinese sellers get away with fake branding and fake items?
Hello,
Such as this seller; https://www.amazon.com/sp?marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&seller=AL7F9B9CF70UQ&ref_=dp_merchant_link&asin=B0DM4SG3P2
He just made up a brand which is``Kiaetvreo`` and photoshopped all of the photos and removed the original brands and listed the items under his so called brand. All his listings are same but he forgot to remove the brand from some;
B0DM5QNCKF
B0DMJQ4YYS
Those are fake Nintendo products but listed under different brands
B0CS6G712W
B0CYPYS6Y8
Can someone explain me how this is possible while Amazon uses AI and even understand the brands from the product photos?
Thank you

Amazon is awful quite in their response. You must have hit a nerve.

Different set of rules for Chinese sellers.
This company is still up and running on Amazon. If I had done this, Amazon would've sued me.

It is a very upsetting situation. I had a crazy situation that you would never guess - I had a customer make a return to us of a legitimate purchase. Except what we got back was a copy of a brand name we sell. It didn't have the brand name on it, but it was a clear attempt to sell a duplicate of the item. The customer got confused and sent us back the copy. Inside the carton of the fake was a card, in poor English, that requests that the customer go to a website and "register" their purchase for the "warranty to be effective" and promises a $5 credit for a good review. That was inside the box! This is sold by a company "IHSUHqSOIwHS" (chinese) and shipped by Amazon. So Amazon enables this.

Amazon should just allow themselves to be bought by China to make it official.

Because IMHO the long term goal is to turn us into a TEMU like company

when you do your own testing its easy to get past those requirements. also, when the radar is on legitimate sellers sellnig actual real items to provide CPSC documentation that these manufacturers can walk down the street and get their buddy to provide the docs for, so that the real items get pulled for "safety" but then replaced with counterfeits. just look at pokemon plushes. all the real pokemon center ones are gone for counterfeits.

Hi there @Seller_OwFy0CK4sS1nZ
My name is Sandy from the Community manager team.
I understand that you are frustrated with the listings that seem to violate trademarks for certain brands. Please note that Amazon does investigate these listings and makes sure these are authentic to the brand. However, this investigation may take some time. Also notices can be sent from the brand owner.
Amazon requires these reports via the Report a Violation Tool. Amazon reviews all Sellers from every region to ensure they are following policy correctly and also audits employee behavior. You can report ASINs in violation or that were that hijacked, however we will only be able to assist in appealing changes to ASINs you currently sell.
