Fake Discount Codes

[deniser]

Is there any way I can stop companies displaying fake discount codes for my website? We don't use discount codes via voucher sites, only our own rare promotions.

It is annoying customers when they find the fake codes don't work.

The brand/company name is a registered trademark.

Can you contact the discount code websites to tell them not to display any codes for your website? I know there are quite a few but contacting them all directly at once might solve this?

You could put a message on your site turning it in to something positive saying that you never issue voucher codes because everyone gets a fair deal and your prices are already low etc.

We have had the same thing lately.
UK url's but the companies are in Hong kong and China.
Emails get no response of course

1. I wonder what they get out of it?
2. It's flattering that they would do this, in a way
3. "To use your discount code, join our mailing list [here]"

Pissed off customer for one

And then I assume they hope to persuade you to start doing them and they make money that way
