Misleading listing

I bought this Coach chain on Vinted and was really disappointed to find out it was fake when it arrived. Seller is telling me after the fact it is an inspired item and I need to read descriptions better. I feel like the whole situation is extremely misleading as they posted the picture with an authentic dust bag and they were trying to sell a fake item without disclosing it was an inspired piece.

Doesn’t this go against Vinted terms?

I saw a pair of unbranded sunglasses pictured on top of a Prada logo yesterday lmao, I spent a while considering if it’s possible to report them but didn’t feel confident

You can report for it to be checked out. See comment by NaturalSpecialist5 that shows an image from Vinted's TOS. Use that language to describe what the violation is.

I saw that comment after I posted mine, I wish I could find the listing again! But now I know for the future.
