How to Report Infringement on eBay
eBay infringement is usually a listing selling counterfeit goods, using your product photos without permission, or using your brand name to imply a partnership that doesn't exist.

Step-by-step process
Decide your approach
Enroll in VeRO if you expect repeat issues, or file a one-time Notice of Claimed Infringement (NOCI) if this is a single incident.
Submit your NOCI
Through the VeRO Portal, or by emailing vero@ebay.com (fax is also accepted but slower).
Include the item number and rights details
Provide the specific eBay item number(s), your ownership evidence, and — for copyright claims — the required DMCA statements.
eBay reviews and acts
Qualifying listings are removed and the seller is notified; they can appeal if they believe the report was a mistake.
