Unfair competition is a crime. Having competitors is normal and healthy for competition and service improvement between companies, but what cannot happen is that this competition is illegal.  The person or company that suffers from abuse by its competitor can and should seek a lawyer to seek the criminal conviction of the person who committed the crime, as well as have compensation for material and moral damages for the loss of image and customer deviation.

Use fraudulent means, mislead consumers, misuse a brand, name owned by another company characterize unfair competition. The idea of the “unfair competitor” is to divert customers that were acquired for an advantage.  This can often happen in advertisements, electronically or in print, in which a company claims to be another, or even with the commercialization of a copy of a patented product.  This conduct undermines the credibility of the market as a whole. The inventor and holder of the name, trademark or patent must always have the security that he will be remunerated for his efforts in research and development or creation and consolidation of a brand.
