eBay CEO Shares Counterfeit Findings in EU

March 30, 2009

eBay CEO John Donahoe met in Strasbourg last week with EU Internal Market Commissioner Charlie McCreevy to share the success of eBay’s anti-counterfeit efforts.  Donahoe handed over the eBay report entitled, “Fighting against Online Solicitations of Counterfeits,” outlining the scale of the counterfeit problem on the Internet and stating that only 0.15% of a total of 2.7 billion listings on eBay were identified as potentially counterfeit (and removed) thanks to our advanced anti-counterfeit program.
