Scammers copy trusted brands to steal from your customers.
Fake pages use your name, logo and posts to run ads, collect money and send people to fake WhatsApp groups. Your customers lose money, and your brand takes the blame. Brand protection stops this before it costs you customers.
Fake ads with your logo
Sponsored posts copy your branding to promise giveaways, “investment tips” or discounts that don’t exist.
Impersonation pages
Look-alike profiles reply to your customers, ask for payments and damage trust in your real accounts.
Scam WhatsApp groups
Ads push people into private groups where they’re pressured to pay, far from your official channels.
No one is watching
Most brands only find out when a customer complains. By then dozens of fake ads have already run.
Real fake ads using DSE’s name, found in one scan (Oct 2026).
A complete brand protection system for your business.
Brand audit
We find every official, duplicate and fake account using your name, and check what’s verified and what isn’t.
Secure your official accounts
Merge duplicate pages, take back control of your accounts and set up business verification and blue ticks where available.
Trademark enrolment
We file your registered trademark with Meta’s Brand Rights Protection so fake content can be reported and removed officially.
Daily scans
Every day we search ad libraries and platforms for new ads, pages and profiles using your name or logo.
Takedowns
Each fake is reported through the platform’s intellectual property and impersonation channels, and followed up until it’s gone.
Awareness & reporting
“How to spot a fake” posts for your audience, plus a monthly brand protection report with every fake found, reported and removed.
How we cleared hundreds of scam ads using DSE’s name.
Swahili “hisa bora” stock-tip ads were using DSE’s name and logo to lure people into fake WhatsApp investment groups. None of DSE’s pages were verified, and there was no way to report the fakes.
What we did
Merged DSE’s duplicate Facebook pages and linked the official page to the official Instagram.
Completed Meta Business Verification and got blue ticks on Facebook and Instagram.
Enrolled DSE’s registered trademark with Meta Brand Rights Protection.
Ran daily scans and filed a trademark report for every fake ad found.
Sent monthly reports with proof of every removal.
Trademark reports filed with Meta for DSE, July–August 2026.
Brand protection that takes you from exposed to protected in weeks.

Questions brands ask us.
Do I need a registered trademark?
For Meta’s Brand Rights Protection, yes: your name or logo must be a registered trademark (in Tanzania, registered with BRELA). Without one we can still verify your accounts and report impersonation, but trademark enrolment makes takedowns much faster and more reliable.
How fast are fake ads removed?
We report new fakes the same day we find them. The platform makes the final decision; most of the fake ads we report for DSE are removed within days.
Can you get my pages a blue tick?
We handle the application and documents for business verification and paid verification where the platform offers it. Approval and fees are set by each platform.
Will you need access to our accounts?
Yes. Admin access to your business accounts lets us consolidate pages, verify and file reports on your behalf. You stay the owner at all times.
How will I know it’s working?
Every month you get a report listing each fake found, when it was reported and whether it was removed, with screenshots as proof. Read how to remove a fake page using your business name.
