Counterfeits, impersonation, and unauthorized resellers hide behind geo-restrictions. Residential proxies let you scan every market your brand operates in -- seeing what local consumers see.
Use rotating residential proxies to monitor for counterfeits and unauthorized sellers across markets. Geographic targeting is essential because infringers often operate only in specific regions.

This is standard IP enforcement practice.
Counterfeit sellers often target specific markets and hide their listings from the brand's home country. Without residential proxies in each target market, you are blind to the infringements your local consumers face.
The only reliable way to see what a real user sees is to become one.
Scheduler, proxy fetch, parser, store -- the proxy is one line in the fetch step. Everything else is pipeline you already run.
Run brand queries from each country where you sell. Infringers often target markets where they think you are not watching.
Counterfeit listings reappear quickly after takedowns. Automated daily scanning catches re-listings within hours.
Use sticky sessions to follow seller profiles and catalog their full listing inventory across marketplace pages.
Failed fetches are never billed, so your effective cost tracks the success rate you actually observe.
Counterfeiters and unauthorized sellers often geo-fence their listings, hiding them from the brand's home country while still targeting local buyers elsewhere. Residential proxies in each target market let you see what consumers there actually see on marketplaces, and per-request rotation keeps sophisticated sellers from detecting the monitoring pattern and adapting around it.
Residential proxies work on all major marketplaces, with success rates of 99%+ on mainstream platforms. Coverage spans 195 countries with city-level targeting, so you can scan the same marketplace across every region where your brand sells or where counterfeit listings tend to surface.
With daily automated scanning across your target markets, you can detect new counterfeit listings within 24 hours of posting. Takedowns rarely end the problem either -- counterfeit listings reappear quickly after removal, so the same daily scan cadence catches re-listings within hours of them reappearing, keeping detection continuous rather than one-time.
Yes -- monitoring public marketplace listings for counterfeits and policy violations is standard brand protection practice, supported by most marketplace terms of service rather than working against them. It targets only what any shopper can already see on the listing page, not private seller data or account information.
