Reporting Art Theft

Unfortunately, as my business grows, so do the number of thieves. I find my stolen designs on Temu, SHEIN, AliExpress, AliBaba and these stolen goods end up funneling to Etsy and Shopify because other small businesses are purchasing my stolen work and selling them as "handmade." I do sell my work wholesale and I can verify any stockist of mine that is authentic and genuine. I have had issues in the past with a retailer removing my branding and stealing from me and I no longer work with them or want to be associated with them.

These situations are extremely heartbreaking and discouraging because all of my acrylic items are designed and made in house by me with my own two hands. I have been in the laser community for over three years and I have timestamps, original files (with dates of creation) and timelapses to show proof of my original work and designs. All of my resin art is 100% handmade by me. My stickers, magnets, decals are designed by me and I get them printed off and sent to me. Some of my designs are even hand drawn by me. I am working on legally copyrighting my original drawn designs. I have been able to successfully get some of these stolen listings removed but they eventually come back. I don't think I will ever be able to do business without someone stealing my work. I appreciate everyone who lets me know about these thieves and who helps me report.


So how can you help?

I am going to start compiling a list of my stolen work down below. If you have the time, please report the listings. Some of these websites require you to have an account to report. The report section can also be hard to find. If I am on my laptop or my phone, I click/go to the search function and type in "report" to find where to report the stolen listing. You can select a category like: counterfeit goods, IP infringement, issue not listed, etc. For the text you can copy and paste the following (or you can get creative with your own words. Have fun with it if you'd like):

This listing is selling stolen work and stolen intellectual property from @artworkbyjennyshlemon. She does not give permission for her work to be copied and distributed. Please remove this content and stop stealing from artists and small businesses.

Thank you to anyone taking the time to read this and report these listings for me. Please let me know if any of them are "deleted" so I can remove the link and be on the look out for the next.
I appreciate your help with this frustrating situation. Please remember to support genuine small businesses, artists and makers.
