Clone storefronts

A clone storefront is a full, working copy of a brand's online shop — logo, photography, product names and checkout — published on a domain the brand does not own. The most damaging copy there is, because it doesn't look like a copy. Your logo, your photography, your product names, your copy — lifted wholesale onto a domain one letter away from yours, usually with a 40–70% discount banner to close the sale before anyone thinks twice.

What we look for

The signals that make a case.

Your own image filenames

Scrapers copy the file, not just the picture. When a clone serves your exact asset name, the theft is documented in its own URL.

A copyright line in your name

“© 2026 <your brand>. All rights reserved.” on a site you have never owned is the clearest claim of ownership a platform can be shown.

Scraper arithmetic

In one live scan a fleece sweater was listed at $17,700 — an automated import that multiplied the price by a hundred and was never proofread.

Hosting that doesn't match

Your store is on Shopify. The copy is on a budget host in another jurisdiction, often in a block that also serves unrelated scam shops.

What we do about it

The action,
once you approve it.

Host abuse report, registrar complaint and platform takedown, filed together with the evidence pack.

Always

Nothing goes out unauthorized

Every clone storefronts case waits for your written approval. You can stop any of them at any point, and a seller you tell us to leave alone is never raised again.

Common questions

Asked before the first scan.

How do I know if my store has been cloned?

The tells we see most: your exact image filenames served from a stranger's domain, a copyright line in your name on a site you never owned, and deep-discount banners on your catalog. A free first scan surfaces them — you don't have to go looking.

How do you take a clone store down?

Three filings go out together, with the evidence pack attached: an abuse report to the host, a complaint to the domain registrar, and a takedown to any platform involved. Depending on your tier, you send them yourself from our ready-to-file pack, or we send them under your written authorization.

How fast will it come down?

We don't promise a removal date, because the platform's review queue isn't ours to control. What we control is our own filing: our target is under 24 hours from your authorization, with evidence built to meet review the first time.
