Possible unauthorized content user/seller on Weibo/Taobao

Hey guys,

Just want to highlight to you all about the following account on Weibo and Taobao using Chepsteps' name, logo, and content in its posting and Taobao store listing.

I don't see anywhere on Chefsteps' website mentioned any "Chinese representative".

Do take note.

P.s. try searching "chefsteps" on Taobao and there'll be a bunch of interesting stuff pops out (￣ー￣)

The first site link was blocked by Firefox for iffy content. I didn't bother to try the second link.

@Ellen_212162FYI.... not sure what you want to do with this info or if you want to take down this post but the first link ain't cool....

Both of the sites appear to be cloned and/or blatantly stolen content by a Chinese web domain. Unfortunately, I'm not sure there's anything ChefSteps would really be able to do about either (all) of the theft of content abroad.

First website is the largest online news and social network (think of it as Twitter with billions of Chinese using it.).

Both links were created by the same guy/group.

The first link is the user profile of this person's Weibo account named "Chefsteps-George" with a short bio describing the account is representing Chefsteps in China.

The second link is the same guy's Taobao (the largest online B2C store period, under Alibaba Group) store front selling Chefsteps recipie, sousvide related equipments and other stuff with Chefsteps logo on every picture (some directly from Chefsteps). The one I posted earlier was mobile ver. Here's the store front on normal browser: https://shop118689212.world.taobao.com/index.htm?spm=a312a.7700824.w5002-15477434086.2.9lWmDT
