All items from thise seller are clones and pirate copyies. He just the seller. Take a look on other items and try to make searchon them. As anyone can see other items are everywhere. So the problem deeper. It's good that other products were first. May be Artur's program would'n be so popular for pirate sellers? And the price is not so low.
I have thought about thise problem, no working idea may be trademark registration? i don't know.

You might need to contact them as rights owner

Last information I got from Ebay:

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to report the listing for Opel diagnostic
scanner software (item no. 170203510142) that may be in breach of eBay
policy. We'll investigate your report thoroughly.

Before taking action we consider the circumstances of the alleged
offence as well as any previous warnings or offences. To be fair to all
members, we won't take action unless the complaint can be proven with
certainty.

As it's important that eBay maintains member privacy, we can't share
details of the action we take on the other member's account with you.
This eBay principle protects the privacy of all our members.

In future, to help us investigate more quickly, please report
questionable listings via our online form. You can use the "Report this
item" link at the bottom of the item page, or else click on "Contact Us" from most
help pages and then select the reason for your report.

If you believe the sale of an item on eBay breaches the intellectual
property rights of a third party ("rights owner"), you can contact the
relevant rights owner and inform them of the listing(s). Rights owners
can request the removal of listings that infringe their intellectual
property rights through eBay's Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) Programme.

A lot of our Verified Rights Owners have About Me pages that contain
their contact details. Please copy this link into a new browser window
to have a look:

 http://pages.ebay.com/help/community/vero-aboutme.html

If you are a rights owner yourself and would like more information
regarding the VeRO Programme please visit:

 http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/community/vero-program.html

We appreciate your concern and we thank you for helping us to keep eBay
a safe and reputable place to buy and sell.

Kind regards,

Kyle Matthews
eBay Trust & Safety

I think if rights owner contact them they ask about any documents. It is hard to register software in all countries where product sells.
If Artur want's i can help in registering TM also IN Armenia and other countries. The TM registration need no any documnets about rights on product. But it needs a lot of money to register in 10-15 countries.

Hi artur.

It's an official dealer ?

http://www.store.autosvs.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=8&products_id=144&zenid=1npql7n8v65ua3snc9daork0v6

Definitely - NO. First of all - they offer very old version 1.0.1.4, and look on the price. The original never had price of 50 EUro.

That's what I thought.
It was just to warn you of fraud.

Personally, I remain a faithful to the original buyer.

If I discover else, I'll tell by mail.

Thanks!

I think, this topic can be used to report about illegal sales of the our genuine product.
