Fake shops are selling under your name.
BehindLink hunts down fake versions of your shop — cloned storefronts and the Meta, Google and TikTok ads pushing them — verifies every find by hand, and drives the takedown.

A mock-up, not a real capture — the pattern is drawn from real clone shops.
Be first in line when we open
Checks are not running yet. Leave your brand here and it goes in the first batch: when we open, we build your brand profile, sweep every source we watch, check by hand what we find, and send you the evidence — free, and a clean result is written up too. We will confirm receipt and tell you where you stand. These three fields are all we use. Nothing to install, no access to your shop, and no charge until you have seen what we found.
What it costs you
you never saw
A shopper sees your product in an Instagram ad, clicks through to a convincing fake, and pays. The money goes to a scammer. The angry email comes to you, because the site had your name on it.
buy ads too
Scam shops run Meta, Google and TikTok campaigns on your own product photos, sometimes outbidding your real ads. Watching domain registrations alone tells you nothing about the campaign — it lives in the ad libraries.
out last
Their victims become your support tickets, your chargebacks, your never-delivered reviews. By the time a customer tells you, it has already cost money.
a month, while the clone is up
Your numbers and your own assumption about interception — we are not claiming a rate. The point is the arithmetic: a clone only has to work a little to cost more than watching for it.
comes back
Phishing is rarely a one-off. Every confirmed case sharpens your brand profile, which helps catch the next wave sooner — and you end up with a dated record of everyone who has abused your name, which is what a lawyer or an auditor asks for.
How we know it is a fake
Detection starts with your brand, not with a generic blocklist. We build a profile of what your real presence looks like, then check everything we find against it.
We profile your brand first
We scan your site for what a scammer has to copy — logo, colours, product photography, page structure — then categorise you by industry. A shop gets watched for fake storefronts and the ads feeding them; other industries get their own watch profile. The profile is rebuilt as your site evolves.
Then we watch where fakes surface
Four sources, swept continuously. Impersonation usually surfaces in one of them before a customer complains, and a domain almost always exists before the phishing does.
Everything found is checked against your profile
A lookalike domain proves nothing on its own. We fetch the page and check it against your profile: your logo, your colours, your layout, a login or checkout collecting data. Anything that clears the bar is confirmed by a person. Anything ambiguous comes to you to judge rather than being filed away.
Every finding carries a grade — and its evidence
Confirmed impersonation — verified by a person — is reported to the blocklists and to the hosting provider, and you approve every filing. Possible lookalikes stay on the watchlist and come to you with the evidence attached, for you to judge. Either way the record is dated and kept.
Dormant domains stay under watch
Domains get registered with your name in them and left parked. They are not phishing today, so it is tempting to stop watching them. We keep checking them for the changes that mean somebody is switching them on.

How this example ends is not a promise. Whether and when blocklists warn or a registrar suspends is their decision, not ours, and timelines vary — which is exactly why we track every case until it is resolved and re-file if the site returns.
Built first for e‑commerce brands
Clone storefronts copy your product photos, your reviews and your customers’ money. Every euro that reaches a scammer is a euro that was going to be spent with you, and the refund demand still lands in your inbox. We find the storefront and the ad campaign feeding it.
We also run watch profiles for fintechs — credential phishing instead of fake checkouts, with dated evidence that feeds a DORA audit trail — and for any brand that wants to know who is trading on its name. If that is you, say so when you sign up.
What a useful finding contains
Anyone can send you a list of suspicious domains. A finding you can act on has to answer six questions, and every alert we send is built to answer them — each field filled as far as the evidence goes.
The signals matched against your profile: layout similarity, your logo or product photos on the page, a live checkout or login form collecting data.
The domain, and which source produced it — a new registration, a fresh certificate, an ad wearing your name, or a complaint posted online.
The registration or certificate timestamp where one exists — often dating the record from before the site went live.
For live sites: a screenshot and the fetched page, taken while the site was up. The evidence outlives the takedown.
For ad-driven fakes: the advertiser identity and a link to the ad in the platform’s own library.
Every finding carries its status and a recommended next step. Nothing is filed without your approval.
That is the bar an alert has to clear before it reaches you. Anything ambiguous does not get quietly filed away — it comes to you to judge.
Pricing
What it will cost when we open. No sales calls, and nothing to pay before your free check has shown you what is out there — one fake shop can cost more in lost orders and chargebacks than a year of watching. Early-access brands keep these prices.
Exposure check
One question, answered the day your batch opens: is anyone wearing your brand?
- A brand profile built from your site, then a full sweep
- Anything live comes back documented
- A clean result is written up too
Domain watch
The always-on layer, fully automated.
- Every new domain and TLS certificate that mimics your name, watched from the moment it appears
- Confirmed phishing sites reported to Google Safe Browsing and the other browser blocklists
- Alerts by email — no ads coverage, no analyst
Watchdog
Everything in Domain watch, plus the places a fake actually finds your customers.
- The Meta, Google and TikTok ad libraries, plus social impersonation
- Every alert checked by a human before it reaches you
- Takedowns included: filed with the hosting provider and registrar, tracked and re-filed until resolved — no per-case fees, you approve every filing
- Spotted something yourself? Hand it over — from the console or the API — and it goes through the same analysis and takedown as anything we find
- A dated history you can hand to a lawyer or an auditor
Staring at a live fake right now? Say so — those cases jump the queue and we will look at yours by hand, even before we open. Prices exclude VAT.
Where the reports go, exactly
Domain watch reports confirmed phishing sites to the browser blocklists — Google Safe Browsing and its peers — so browsers warn anyone who clicks. Watchdog files the full case on top of that: the hosting provider and the registrar get the evidence pack, with your approval, and we track it and re-file until it is resolved. Takedowns are part of the subscription — no per-case fees, and a scam spread across several domains counts as one case.
Questions on the record
You are not live yet — so what am I signing up for?
A place in the first group, and the free check that comes with it. The engine is built and running against our own test corpus; what we are not doing yet is taking on brands at volume, because every finding gets checked by a person and we would rather that person be unhurried. We open in batches and email you before yours starts. Nothing is charged, and there is nothing to cancel — if the timing stops suiting you, ignore the email.
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.
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 — 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 against a profile of what your real site looks like, watch the ad networks for your name, keep watching parked domains, have a person confirm every finding, and prepare the takedown filings for your approval. You get evidence you can act on instead of a list of maybes.
What actually happens in a takedown?
Two reports go out at once: one to the phishing blocklists that Chrome, Firefox and Safari read, so browsers can warn anyone who clicks, and one to the hosting provider with the full evidence pack. Whether and how fast they act is their decision — so we track the case until it is resolved, and re-report if the site returns.
What if you check and find nothing?
You get exactly that in writing: a clean, dated report you can keep. That is a real answer. We will not invent threats to sell you a subscription.
Do you catch fake Instagram and Facebook accounts?
Partly, and we would rather be straight about the line. We catch them where they cross what we already watch — a paid ad from an imposter account, or a fake shop one links to. Systematically hunting imposter profiles that run no ads is on the roadmap, not in today’s coverage.
We are a licensed fintech. Does this help with DORA?
DORA expects financial entities to monitor threats and keep evidence. This is a documented piece of that: continuous external monitoring, timestamped findings, monthly reporting. No tool makes you compliant on its own, but your auditors will like the paper trail.
