This is very easily preventable if Amazon easily allowed the listing to be flagged for IP violation. Such multiple violations should cause supplier to be banned. It is quite surprising that foreign supplier just can dump whatever they want without any regards to IP in US markets via Amazon.

Amazon just doesn't care. They let hundreds of suppliers sign up with the same bank account details.

Do they have any IP which prevents other from copying. Further if someone wants to enforce their IP they can just take it to court and get the writ to remove any fake listings from sites.
