THANK YOU!!! People are so sneaky about it! I'm afraid I am going to lose my Suggested User status for accidently sharing these inspired/replicas. I feel sorry for the ladies that buy these fakes thinking that they are getting authentic items. :(

@kellidavis05 we need to come together and demand posh does a better job at scanning the posts! Hello if the listing reads "inspired" take it down automatically! Also actually do something when listings are reported! I'm sick of reporting and then seeing the items SOLD!!! Seriously, where is the quality control?!? That's why I left posh end of last year... Had to come back as I just lost my job.

kellidavis05
I totally agree! I was just having this conversation with 2 other friends that I met through Posh. There should be a team that specifically scans/handles reported and unsupported items. I reported a party host NUMEROUS times before her party for used swimwear. The amount of junk being listed is getting out of control.

kellidavis05
Maybe we could get several others to team up and send PM suggestions for improving quality control:)

gracekellie13
@kellidavis05 ewwwe gross! Yes so much junk! And counterfeit items. I agree, count me in! I'm happy to send more emails... Also perhaps public calling out on social media will put more pressure on posh? Maybe we can tweet/ FB images of fake items w the closet name to alert posh and ask what they are going to do?!?

Thank you for this great post. I've started going through the closet's I've never seen before I share. Can't tell you how many closets have items that shouldn't be posted. I wouldn't want to think Posh would turn their head just to make a buck😁

@chicbabygirl feel free to use! Sadly I think we all need to demand posh do more! I've reported closets/ listings and see them open and selling the FAKE items! Very frustrating!

I'm okay when it's inspired by/look-a-like and the tell you in the description it's fake. It's another thing when it's fake and they tell you it's real.

I fully agree @jennalind88 ... please report them... I did several this morning. I also snapped images and sent emails to posh! its just awful and tacky! Well and also ILLEGAL! I would NEVER sell, much less buy something FAKE! Its cheap looking...
Jul 05Reply

gracekellie13
yes @jennalind88 I reported those.... they look FAKE too... and I blocked the seller...
Jul 05Reply

kellidavis05
@jennalind88 Thank you for the tag! I have reported her listings. Obviously people don't read the rules. Inspired items aren't allowed even if it says "inspired" in the description. I agree, they need to be called out! We need to keep this up, alert FB Posh friends and constantly report! I will be emailing PM today.
Jul 05Reply

gracekellie13
@kellidavis05 @jennalind88 I too reported and sent emails! This girl is blocked and I left a note on her TL... Nothing nasty just that the item is fake! The more people do this the better I think! I'm just so sick of seeing the fake crap sell!

@gracekellie13 So sorry to hear of your job loss 🙏🏻. There is an incredibly alarming rate of bizarre things going on. I know other Poshers report & nothing is done. I actually emailed Poshmark Support on this issue & received a very interesting response. They stated lots of things but.....a lot of prohibited items are hosts, suggested users &/or top 10%.
Jul 11Reply

gumbob
@gracekellie13 I follow Poshmark rules but it makes me sad when I bust by behind & then see this stuff. Oh well, I just mind my own business......I can't control the actions of others. We all have to read the guidelines when signing up?!?
Jul 11Reply

gracekellie13
yes its crappy to see nothing being done @gumbob .... the only reason I came back on posh was because of my job loss... I left posh as I was so tired of reporting FAKE items and then seeing them sold! I think if more of us report and email posh directly and take to social media to openly expose the illegal items... maybe we will get a response??!?!

This has been happening with clothes also. I went through an entire closet yesterday. Everything was marked as Brandy Melville. Then in the listing it said Brandy dupo. I didn't know dupo meant duplicate :(. So know when I'm searching for Brandy Melville clothing all I see is her Levis and tee shirts :(

Hi @fairy_tale welcome to posh! Well you can click the listing and if you're in mobile there is an option at the top corner a box w a little arrow click and you shall see some options "report listing" is one also you can screen shot image and email their customer service... It's a bummer that so many fakes are on here! So always look at buyer ratings and past sales comments... Hope that helps and don't get discouraged... It's deflating trust me, however there are awesome women on here as well!
Feb 24Reply

sunshineamine
I always ask the user if the bag/item is authentic, and if they tell me it is when it is clearly not, I call them on it and ask if they were aware. Some people take them down then. If they're rude, I report. Otherwise if I see a straight up replica or inspired item I just report it. Similar styles to designer from legit brand = FINE. Complete fakes= NOT OKAY. Most of the replicated items unfortunately produced in slave labor situations. :/ Uhhgg I feel like I report at least one listing a day.

This illegal, "you can go to jail for" fraud has been committed not only by the hand bag black market, Swarovski Crystal has been flagrantly used, when I know for a fact the majority are not. If you concentrate your efforts to report illegal activity first, that would probably be about 20% engaged in illegal activities such as patent infringement and fraud. All fraud committed against copyrights, licensed, and patent holding entities can result in jail time.

Fake Vuittons Pt. 1 Last night I found many fake LV purses on Poshmark, far more than I see on eBay. __{ Posh seller @gyiooh323 }__ That’s a name you’ll want to remember: every item in her closet is a counterfeit Louis Vuitton, about 15 in total. My message to her about the 1st one I saw was mild...but then I saw another fake, which was her’s as well. Then another, and another. And another! So I went into her closet, Cont’d...

Every item in gyiooh323 ‘s closet was a counterfeit Louis. I’m on my 5th “It’s a FAKE,” to her when I noticed she pulled a couple down. I told her what she was doing was not only highly illegal but that she was bad too. Every item I wrote “FAKE” on, getting angrier and angrier as I did so, and when I’d called everything in her closet counterfeit I figured I’d best act fast before she blocked me. Cont’d...

Immediately I added all in her closet to a bundle, and then I took a few screen shots of each piece. I’ll write to Kevin at Posh tomorrow and tell him about her, pics included. eBay has been sued twice by LV for allowing fake Vuittons to be sold on their site, and we’re talking big money here. Posh has FAR MORE fake LVs than eBay, which leads me to think Posh isn’t on top of this at all... which is scary for those not too familiar with the brand.

Jan 17Reply

gracekellie13
@ddelgado990 yes they automatically credit the seller after three full days- that’s why it’s so important to be there when you receive packages to immediately communicate with Posh if it’s a fake. Also as a seller, I rush to get my items out and have stellar communication - only to have the package delivered and find out my buyer is on vacation... so that hurts me from getting my funds asap- I have to wait... so if people are going to be gone they should communicate
