Could there be negative unintended consequences here? If someone else sells your product cheaper than you do on Amazon, could this be used to remove them and keep prices higher?
- ikeboy 8y agoYes. I've personally received fake complaints of counterfeit from multiple 9 and 10 figure brands. There are active lawsuits (see careful shopper LLC vs tp-link and Johnson vs incopro which was just settled) for this. Shady law firms and "brand protection companies" are advising big brands to do this and it's hurting legitimate sellers. I know sellers with dozens of false complaints, it's getting out of hand.
- teilo 8y agoThis was the first thing I thought of. Is this the Amazon equivalent to YouTubes utterly broken copyright system? On YouTube, anyone can claim they own copyright on anyone else's video, even out of spite, without proof, and it is taken down with no recourse possible, except to the person who falsely claimed the copyright.
