Duplicate and fake search results

The main page displays the date of the next search. Results will be available after the primary processing, which can take several days.

If a search is currently in progress and the page with previous results has been opened, the status Search in progress will be displayed instead of the date.

At the beginning of the section, the following data will be displayed:

  • Number of all searches that have been launched. 
  • Number of companies that have been filtered out.
  • Number of new duplicates.
  • Number of new fakes.
  • Number of duplicates and fakes under moderation - locations that are waiting for processing by BrandWizard employees to send a complaint to the catalog.
  • Number of complaints submitted.

Also, a list of all found locations is displayed, showing:

  • The catalog icon where the duplicate or fake was found.
  • The date the location first appeared in search results on the service.
  • Name, address, category, and link to the source of the location found.

  • The main location on which the duplicate was found.
  • Company status and date of the last update.

Filters are also available on the page:

  • By type. By default, all results will be shown. You can choose to sort by duplicates or fakes only.

  • By catalog. Google Maps search is available. To sort, click on the field, select the desired option from the drop-down list, and click OK.
  • By brand. Only those brands for which results were found will be displayed in the filter. To sort, click on the field, choose the necessary from the drop-down list and click OK.

  • By status:
  • New.
  • Under moderation. The company is waiting for processing and sending a request for removal to the catalog.
  • Complaint sent. Means that a complaint about the location has been sent and is awaiting approval in the catalog. Waiting time for a response is 1-3 weeks.
  • Action required. The catalog requirement must be fulfilled to remove the duplicate or fake.
  • Request approved. The location has been removed from the source.
  • Request rejected. The catalog did not accept the complaint about the location.
  • Hidden. Your company or location was found, which has nothing to do with your brand.

By default, the following statuses can be set:

  • If there are new locations and those require action, the statuses New and Action required will be set.

  • If there are new locations but none requiring action, the New status will be set.

  • If there are locations that require action, but no new ones, the Action required status will be set.

  • If there are no new or action-required locations, but there are locations with complaints and under moderation, the Under moderation and Complaint sent statuses will be set.

  • If there are companies with complaints, but no new or action-required locations under moderation, the Complaint sent status will be set.

  • If there are locations under moderation, but no new or action-required locations with complaints, the Under moderation status will be set.

  • If there are no companies under any of the above-mentioned statuses, the statuses Request approved or Request rejected will be set.

To filter by a specific status, click on the necessary one and deselect the previous one/s.

To filter by more than one status, click on the needed statuses and deselect the others.
