Please answers all question by uploading/posting your answers under this column.

 The main offence done by the e-commerce site (Pinduoduo) is the platform has been actively selling low-price knock-offs with a high resemblance to brand names of well-known products.  For example there is a number of diaper products branded like "Pampois" and "Parmepas" were sold on Pinduoduo and received warm responses from consumers due to low prices.

Pinduoduo are facing charges of file class-action lawsuits.  There are six law firms, including Rosen Law Firm, Pomerantz LLP, Law Offices of Howard G. Smith, Faruqi & Faruqi LLP, The Schall Law Firm, and Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman LLC, on behalf of individual investors who bought Pinduoduo shares will take the action on this case.

 

These scenario have effect others company especially Pampers, the diaper brand owned by P&G. They are seriously has always maintained a zero tolerance attitude towards the production or sale of goods that infringes IP rights. The company will investigate the legal liability of responsible persons, including both producers and sellers, it added.

 

Pinduoduo have been investigated by the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith whether Pinduoduo and its officers and/or directors have engaged in securities fraud or other unlawful business practices.

 

Pinduoduo is popular among consumers because of the lowest price that they offered by selling brand names of well known product.  Consumers will be able to buy the branded product with the lowest price rather than the standard price offered by branded own company.  At one side, a profit to a consumer but the other side it’s such big loss to the branded company who has the copyright of the product.

 

A business like Pinduoduo is unethical. Think about ethical, any company in the world who has doing online or offline business should be practicing the good ethical. It is about you are trying to misuse and attackers the intelligent and hardest work of your competitor or other company to make your own profit. It’s not fair at all.  Even though you are making a lot of profit from the sales but it is not a legal way.  It won’t takes too long, to make your company shut down immediately.
