Not sure where to put this:

We have had a website appear to have scrapped our website and imitate our brand. All the same images, products etc.

The brand name is different, but its clearly a scam. Both our site and the scam site are hosted on Shopify, so we have reached out to them.

Has anyone had this happen to them, as I would really appreciate any feedback on the steps to resolve this ASAP.

Did you file DMCA?

This is the first step.
