※😞However, in the current online world where fraudulent sites can sometimes appear at the top of the results, unless Google, the servers, domains, platforms, security-related companies, countries, and police involved in displaying sites online, set stricter rules, there will be a limit to what small businesses and retailers on the internet can do to prevent this.
(*According to the AI response, it seems that they are doing their best to block billions of spam and fraudulent sites every day, including fraudulent ads.)
👿 ⚠️The fake site that we are currently using fraudulently is not directly engaging in any dangerous or fraudulent activities against our site, but rather embeds our store's name and images within the fake site, which are displayed before the screen opens in order to raise the ranking of the fake site and attract visitors to it.

If you search for keywords such as "Patifeli," "patifeli," "nijiirokobeya," "nijiirokobeya Patifeli," or "虹色小部屋 Patifeli" (including before the site was launched), you may see fake sites displaying our store name, our store name and products, product prices including high-priced items, discounts and campaigns using our store name, and images of our store.
However, these sites are in NO way affiliated with our store.
Furthermore, even if our store name (basic store information), products we carry, product prices including high-priced items, discounts and campaigns using our store name, and images of our store are displayed or sold on the sales pages of fake sites, they are in no way affiliated with our store.
