Who we help - Sport
Counterfeit jerseys and merchandise, fake ticket sellers, athlete abuse and impersonation, and unauthorized use of club marks - enforced across the marketplaces and social platforms where fans actually get burned.
We assess your marks, merchandise lines and current exposure first - you'll know what's enforceable before you commit.
Channels we regularly assess
The problems
Sport concentrates brand value in a way counterfeiters love: passionate fans, iconic marks and seasonal demand spikes. The same passion makes athletes targets for abuse and impersonation - and clubs increasingly carry a duty of care for both.
Fake jerseys, kits and memorabilia across marketplaces, independent stores and social commerce - spiking around finals, signings and new-kit launches.
Scam accounts and sites selling tickets that don't exist - fans lose money, and the club wears the reputational damage.
Fake player and coach accounts scamming fans, running fake giveaways or damaging relationships with sponsors.
Targeted harassment and false claims against players and officials - a wellbeing issue clubs are expected to act on.
Club crests, names and imagery used on unlicensed products, betting promotions and fan-monetised merchandise.
Match content redistributed through streaming rips and social re-uploads, diluting broadcast and content value.

The services behind the work

Marketplaces, social commerce and social platforms scanned for counterfeits, scams and impersonation.
Marketplace complaints, impersonation reports and scam-site takedowns filed per channel - prioritised by fan harm.
Continuous detection tuned to your calendar - kit launches, finals and transfer windows - with reporting per period.

Honest limitations
The honest boundaries for sporting organisations:
Counterfeit sellers resurge around demand spikes; enforcement suppresses networks continuously rather than eliminating them permanently.
Platforms decide each complaint and report; our 98.6% success rate applies to verified, eligible matters.
Genuine fan criticism and match commentary aren't removable - enforcement targets abuse, falsehoods and policy breaches, and we'll be clear about the line.
Registered marks unlock the strongest marketplace channels; unregistered club imagery can often still be enforced through copyright, but the toolkit is narrower.
FAQ
Yes. We file marketplace and platform complaints for counterfeit listings, prepare trademark and copyright evidence where available, and can report repeat sellers, domains and payment channels when they are part of the same enforcement problem.
