At Alibaba e-commerce platform, there are various sellers, who are engaged in selling other’s products on Alibaba platform. We had our client who was engaged in the selling of his own design plates in his own website. As those products were highly in demand, taking advantage of this, the alleged seller started selling the products without any consent. These infringers copied the exact product images over which client has copyright.

The infringer tried to replicate the products. This infringement makes the huge loss to the client in their business.
