Online retailer KSP has replaced product images on its website with a promotional banner, which has also appeared on competitor sites. KSP claims these competitors are using images from its servers without authorization. In parallel, the company has sent warning letters to over 200 retail chains, signaling potential legal action.
For years, KSP has faced issues with competitors such as Bug, M.H.S. (Makhsaney Hashmal), and Electra Consumer Products' Shock Electric, Lior Electrical Products, and Hightechzone, among over 200 other chains. These competitors allegedly copy product pages and images directly from KSP's website. On Wednesday, KSP initiated a legal offensive by dispatching pre-litigation warning letters to all these chains, while simultaneously launching a campaign that could prove costly for its rivals.
