Investigations on Fake Products: A Guarantee to Win the Fight of Fake and Real

Piracy and fake products go hand in hand as; if there is piracy there will be a fake product involved and if there is a fake product there will be piracy. Isn’t it funny but unfortunately that’s the truth. The second thing which I want to focus upon is the connection of investigation to these two different words that is piracy and fake products. Why is investigation important when it comes to these two? The answer is that investigation provides us with proof and a proof can be in any form, just that much which can help in justifying the fact that there is piracy and that has caused damage to either the consumer or the brand owner or both (whoever is the plaintiff).

The burden of proof lies on the person who files a complaint who is also called plaintiff in legal language. He has to prove that there is misuse of his trademark and damage is caused to his reputation because of that misuse which further should be corroborated with proper evidence. Many a times the plaintiff fails in proving his claims due to lack of proper evidence which again is a result of improper investigation of the same. So even if the plaintiff is correct on his part, he loses everything because of lack of evidence. Is this right? No, not at all!!! I know this is the possible answer that readers will give and this is correct but not in the real world. This unjustified decision can be reverted if proper efforts are taken by the consumers or brand owners who suffer from problems relating to the fake products.

Investigations on fake products can be a huge help in these cases as this can collect strong evidences against such violations which in terms can provide justification and correct decision to the needy. It is very easy to recommend this but it is all the more difficult to execute it because even if we know that we should opt for investigation as a method, we still don’t know that where to ask such help from? Will it be easy or will it be tedious just like other court procedures? These questions will run across our mind hundred times before taking any such step, but then this can be made easy. This is the generation of internet, as in, every possible thing is available on internet then why not this?

Internet can solve all such problems as there are many online platforms which provide such investigation and thus help both the brand owners and the consumers in such difficult situations. Here, they can easily file complaints and also ask for services relating to the same; all their queries can be answered in a jiffy. One such very popular and reliable piracy investigation service provider is Brands and Fakes which help in all such problems and thus protects the stakeholders from the damage caused due to fake products or can be caused due to the same.  

It’s really not a tension to go for investigations now because of such easy way outs. Investigations should be encouraged more and more so that one would never hesitate in taking strong steps against brand piracy.   

Fight The Enemy- help in Investigation on fake products

Counterfeiting has the highest growth rate today as an economic crime worldwide. It does not only threaten the economy of developed countries but also of the developing ones.  This venom is leading to damaging of new investments and also endangers community health and safety overall. The technological developments have led to an era where the counterfeited copies turn out to be better than ever. These days, vast arrays of items are counterfeited, including clothes, jewellery, DVDs, pharmaceuticals etc.

The spread of fake products in the market is happening in two major ways.  Conventional sales methods and internet sales, conventional methods are used to distribute the products directly into the market for sale and Internet Sales encourage buying without being able to touch and feel the items before buying them.

Brands and Fakes use the methodology to serve as a brand protection service in India.
