Amazon Counterfeiters a Problem for Artists and Small Businesses
Designers of custom T-shirts, iPhone cases and pillow covers who sell their work through websites like Zazzle and Society6 are seeing copies of their products pop up at an alarming rate on Amazon.
A Facebook group named “Who stole my images?” has more than 350 members documenting examples of copyrighted designs being taken mostly from Zazzle and sold illegally on Amazon.Over the weekend, one artist said she just found 11 more pieces of her work on Amazon, bringing the total number of stolen designs she’d discovered to 88.
