Don't let the target site block you before you spot the counterfeit listings, unauthorized sellers, and brand impersonation. Our residential, rotating, and mobile proxy pools spread your scans across thousands of different IPs so you can monitor continuously without ever being noticed.
A static, dedicated IP for continuously watching one seller account or listing.
High-volume, low-cost sweeps across many marketplaces and platforms.
High-trust IPs for scanning tightly protected platforms unnoticed.
Carrier IPs for in-app store and social platform checks.
Low-ping IPs for monitoring in-game item and account marketplaces for counterfeits.
Accounts selling counterfeits usually pull a listing the moment it is caught and open a new one. A regular check from a single IP gets blocked fast; a scan spread across a large IP pool keeps running and picks up the freshly posted fakes too.
Finding accounts selling your product outside your authorized reseller network means seeing the pages the marketplace serves to that specific shopper. Searching from IPs in different countries and cities shows you exactly the listing an unauthorized seller puts in front of a real buyer.
A brand violation can surface not only in your own market but in countries where you have never sold at all. Geo-targeting lets you scan that country's local marketplace and search results the way a shopper on the ground sees them.
Large marketplaces and social platforms recognize repeated automated scans by their datacenter IP signature and answer with a CAPTCHA. IPs from real home connections or mobile carrier lines make your scanning look like ordinary user traffic.
Violations tend to appear after hours or over the weekend. A rotating IP pool lets you run continuous, automated scans with no risk of an IP ban, so monitoring carries on while you sleep.
Profiles impersonating your brand can serve one version of their content to an IP in your own country and something entirely different to the region where your audience actually is. Without looking through a local IP, you never see the copycat account's true reach.
Checking hundreds of keywords and product variations one by one across different marketplaces simply does not scale. With unlimited concurrent threads and a large IP pool, you scan thousands of listings at once and flag anomalies automatically.
Collecting evidence from your own corporate IP can tip the seller off that the brand itself is watching, prompting them to hide the listing or delete the proof. Access through a proxy pool makes your scanning indistinguishable from an ordinary visitor.
Brand Protection Proxy is a proxy used to find counterfeit listings, unauthorized sellers and impersonation accounts that use a brand's name, logo or product imagery without permission on e-commerce sites and social media, so you can take legal and operational action against them. It works by scanning thousands of pages across the target platforms on a regular schedule and automatically flagging anomalies such as inconsistent prices, images or seller details.
Why Do You Need a Proxy? Marketplaces and social platforms are quick to recognize regular, automated traffic from a single IP and either block it or show a CAPTCHA. On top of that, many violations only surface in a particular country or city; a check run from your own location may not reveal them at all. Without a proxy, your scanning script stops after a handful of requests or misses a large share of the infringement.
Which Proxy, and When? The right setup depends on where the violation shows up:
| Violation Type | Where It Shows Up | Recommended Proxy |
|---|---|---|
| Counterfeit listing | Marketplaces (Amazon, Trendyol, Alibaba) | Rotating Proxy (residential) |
| Unauthorized reseller / grey market | Marketplace seller pages | Sticky Proxy (residential) |
| Social media impersonation | Instagram, TikTok, X | Rotating Proxy (mobile) |
| Brand-abusing ad | Search engines, social ad networks | Residential Proxy (geo-targeted) |
| Phishing / fake domain | Standalone websites | Datacenter Proxy |
| Image / catalog theft | E-commerce, social media | Rotating Proxy |
The Proxynet pool brings together more than 160 million residential and mobile IPs across 194 countries in a single panel. You can route your traffic over the HTTPS or SOCKS5 proxy protocol and put the same infrastructure to work in every brand protection project that calls for e-commerce and social media scanning.
The most common case is counterfeit goods: a fake product carrying your logo shows up on a local marketplace (say, a Southeast Asian one), but that listing only appears on that country's site. Search from your own country and you'll never see it — the only way to find it is to search from an IP in the marketplace's own country.
Unauthorized reseller detection works the same way — a seller with no agreement with you can list your product in their region at a different price, sometimes with fake warranty claims. Catching this means regularly scanning multiple countries and marketplaces, exiting from a different IP each time — otherwise the site blocks you quickly and the scan stalls halfway through.
The same problem shows up in advertising: a misleading ad using your brand name might run in one country and never appear in another. Scanning regularly from different cities and countries catches both counterfeit listings and brand-abusing ads early — Rotating Proxy running each scan from a different IP is the standard way to do it.
The four stages of building a counterfeit and impersonation monitoring workflow:
From e-commerce counterfeit scanning to social media impersonation detection, and from fake ads to phishing domain monitoring, these are the areas brand protection powers.
Detect counterfeit listings that carry your brand name, along with unauthorized seller accounts, with Amazon proxy, Trendyol proxy and other marketplace scans.
Find the fake accounts that impersonate your brand or copy your corporate identity with Instagram proxy, TikTok proxy and X (Twitter) proxy scans.
Spot the listings that use your brand without permission with Alibaba proxy and Walmart proxy scans, in countries where you do not sell yet.
View and document the countries and platforms where fake ads using your brand name or logo are served, all from a real user IP.
Track your brand's position in the market, the price level of counterfeit goods and how quickly they spread, by comparing regional data side by side.
Document which channels resellers outside your authorized network sell your products on, at what price and on what terms.
Find and evidence the pages where your product photos, catalog images or campaign materials have been copied without permission.
Detect the fake login and payment pages set up on domains that imitate your brand name by viewing them from IPs in different countries.

When you take the quality of the proxies they sell together with pre-sales and after-sales support, I can say they are among the best on the market. I want to work with them for a long time — thank you.

I was using a proxy from another company and could not get support. I was already registered on proxynet.io before buying; when a customer-service email arrived on Saturday I decided to try. So far I can say their fast replies and problem-solving approach really impressed me.Read on Trustpilot

Technical support is fast. I was very happy with the ISP proxies; you could make prices a bit more affordable, mobile is unfortunately expensive, but ISP speeds and subnet quality are solid.Read on Trustpilot

City, ASN and carrier targeting on the Residential, ISP, Datacenter and Mobile plans. These are the deepest pools; each country has its own page with its ISPs, carriers and coverage.
For any other question, or for high-volume brand protection infrastructure, our expert team is here 24/7.
Brand protection scanning means checking thousands of pages across marketplaces and social media platforms on a regular schedule. Run from a single IP, that scan is detected and blocked — or stopped by a CAPTCHA — very quickly. A proxy spreads your requests across a large IP pool so you can scan continuously and unnoticed, and it also lets you look at the violation with a real IP from the country where it is visible.
For broad, one-off listing sweeps, a rotating proxy is the most efficient: every request goes out from a different IP, so blocking one address does not stop the scan. On tightly protected platforms with aggressive bot detection, a residential IP pool is the better choice; for high-volume checks against less-guarded targets, datacenter proxies offer a clear cost advantage.
Unauthorized sellers usually operate on pages the marketplace shows differently depending on the shopper's location. By searching from IPs in different countries and cities, you see the exact seller list and listing details a real buyer in that region sees; a check run from your own head-office location may not show those listings at all.
Marketplaces and social platforms personalize content by the visitor's IP location, so a counterfeit listing or campaign that is live in one country can be completely invisible to a visit from another. Until you connect with a real IP from the country where the violation is happening, you cannot see the full scope of the problem.
If an account selling counterfeits or impersonating your brand notices it is being watched by the brand itself, it can pull the listing and open a new account almost immediately, undermining your evidence-gathering. Access through a proxy pool makes your scanning indistinguishable from an ordinary visitor and keeps the seller from taking countermeasures.
Collecting data from publicly available product, seller, and profile pages is generally lawful; personal data collection (under GDPR/KVKK) and breaches of the target platform's terms of service are separate areas of legal risk. Proxynet provides the infrastructure for legitimate brand protection work within those limits; for the lawful use of the data you collect and any legal steps that follow, we recommend consulting your own legal team.
