Questions
What happens after I send the form?
We sweep for copies of your store and send you a private report by email: every fake we confirm, with screenshots and why it is a fake, and any ads sending shoppers to it. If nothing is confirmed, the report says so and shows how many look-alikes we checked. If you want us to keep watching after that, pick a plan. Nothing is charged before you choose.
How soon will I hear back?
Your free check arrives within 2 working days, by email. If you paste in a fake you have already seen, we look at that one the same working day.
Do you need access to my shop?
No. Everything we watch is public. There is nothing to install, no plugin, no DNS change, no password. Setup is one form: your brand name, your web address, and an email for the report.
Why not a Shopify app?
Most apps find look-alikes and hand you a takedown draft to send yourself. Watchdog sends the notices for you, in your name, follows them up, and files again if the site comes back, with no per-case fees. It also watches the public ad libraries for ads using your name, and it works on any store, Shopify or not, because nothing is installed.
How is this different from the free tools?
Free checkers give you a list of possible misspellings of your domain and whether they are registered. That is a useful start, and one of the places we start too. What we add is everything after the list: we fetch each candidate and compare it with a profile of what your real site looks like, watch the ad libraries for your name, keep watching parked domains, report a fake only when several signs agree, review every case daily, and file the takedowns for you. You get evidence you can act on instead of a list of maybes.
Why does it cost less than the big brand-protection suites?
Because it is a narrower product from a much smaller company. Red Points, BrandShield and Corsearch cover marketplace counterfeits, grey-market sellers, piracy and impersonation, with a legal team and an account manager behind it, and quote per deal. We cover one job: fake versions of your store and the ads and accounts sending shoppers to them, reported only when several signs agree, with takedowns filed against the shops. No marketplaces, no counterfeit goods. If counterfeit listings on Amazon are your problem, they are the better tool. If a fake shop is taking your customers’ orders, that is the specific job we do, at a price a store can pay without a procurement round. The founding rate is lower still because the first 10 brands are the ones we learn with.
What actually happens in a takedown?
On Watchdog we send notices in your name, each with the evidence. The hosting provider gets one (through Cloudflare when the site hides behind it), and so does the registrar when the address was registered to deceive. Google Safe Browsing, Microsoft SmartScreen and Netcraft get the address and decide whether to list it. When the fake runs ads or takes payments, the ad platform and the payment or shop provider (Meta, Google, TikTok, Stripe, PayPal, Shopify) get a report too. Whether and how fast anyone acts is their decision, so we check the case until it is resolved, file again when nothing happens, and report again if the site comes back. Takedowns are part of the subscription, with no per-case fees. Domain watch files nothing: every fake we confirm is listed in your portal with its evidence, and your team decides what to report.
What if you check and find nothing?
You get that in writing too: a dated report that says nothing is confirmed and shows how many look-alikes we checked. That is a real answer. We will not invent threats to sell you a subscription.
Do you catch fake Instagram and Facebook accounts?
Yes, within limits we would rather spell out. On Watchdog we search X, TikTok, YouTube and Facebook for accounts using your name, and check the usual impostor handles on Instagram, against the official accounts you tell us about. What we find comes to you from us with the evidence; it is not listed in the portal yet. When an impostor account sends people to a fake shop, the shop goes through the normal takedown. Reporting the account itself to the platform is not part of the included takedowns yet.
We are a licensed fintech. Does this help with DORA?
DORA expects financial entities to monitor threats and keep evidence. Watchdog is a documented piece of that: continuous external monitoring, timestamped findings, monthly reporting. For financial brands we watch for login pages rather than fake checkouts. No tool makes you compliant on its own, but your auditors will like the paper trail.
