Seeking advice regarding where/how to report an intentional fraudulent misrepresentation in the form of on-line listing/advertising.
This first happened late last year, and was not resolved by personal contact with one of the two parties involved.
It is happening again; the same issue as last year.
ie our annual charity event has had our flyer from 2016 manipulated by an unauthorised party to misrepresent our event intentionally, including linking to their own event.
The publisher of the site involved refused to withdraw it, or replace it with correct authorised flyer last year, as claims the unauthorised party has paid for the placement.
What recourse do we have, if any?
This is malicious, intentional, and fraudulent.
It is misleading, and affects our support base as on a major community event site.
We are volunteers, and our event happens entirely as a result of donations and sponsorship.
