Pandabuy, a popular shopping agent used by those buying counterfeit goods from China, has been raided by Chinese police following the initiation of legal action from 16 brand owners, WTR can reveal. The raids involved nearly 100 people, including law enforcement and agents, and followed legal action from 16 rights owners alleging that the company is harbouring and shipping counterfeit goods. “It is a clear signal that the trend of intentionally purchasing fakes – once relatively low-level and underground, but which has received widespread attention since the covid-19 pandemic – has fallen under the watchful eye of rights owners and their brand protection teams, who will look for an enforcement opportunity to respond with the biggest possible impact.”
