Stolen Photos on Vinted: Find and Report Copied Listings
Vinted sellers can copy brand photography to make used or fake items look official. Learn how to find those listings and report them.
Screenshot each Vinted listing that uses your images, keep proof that they're yours, and send an infringement report to Vinted through its rights owner reporting route. Check the seller's other items, since copied photos rarely appear on a single listing.

How image theft shows up on Vinted
Vinted is a peer-to-peer marketplace, so most listings use the seller's own photos. When a listing uses professional brand imagery instead, that's often a sign the item isn't what it appears to be.
Stock photos from a brand's website can be used to pass off replicas as genuine items or to sell products the seller doesn't own.
Signs a Vinted listing may be a fake
- Professional studio or campaign photos instead of photos of the actual item.
- Prices well below the typical secondhand price.
- Sellers who have listed many identical items.
- Reluctance to share extra photos of the item itself.
