According to the provisions of my country's "Anti-Unfair Competition Law", there are generally 7 categories of unfair competition behaviors:

1. Fraudulent transaction methods: including 4 types:

① Counterfeit other people’s registered trademarks. Without the consent of the registered trademark owner, unauthorized use of other people’s registered trademarks is not only an act of trademark infringement, but also an act of unfair competition;

②Using the name, packaging, and decoration of well-known products without authorization, or using names that are similar to well-known products The similar name, packaging, and decoration of the product may cause buyers to mistake it for the well-known product;

③ Use other people’s business names or names without authorization, causing people to mistake it for other people’s products;

④ Forge or use quality marks such as certification marks and famous quality marks on goods, forge the place of origin, and make misleading and false representations of the quality of goods.

2. Commercial bribery: Commercial bribery refers to the behavior of operators using bribery to gain competitive advantage in order to promote or purchase goods. The difference between it and legal "kickbacks", "discounts" and "commissions" is that the property or other benefits given by bribes are not reflected in the formal accounts of the counterparty.

3. False advertising: refers to operators using advertising or other methods to make the public aware of the product's quality, ingredients, performance, use, manufacturer, expiration date, origin, etc., to mislead people false propaganda.

4. Infringement of trade secrets: Trade secrets refer to technical information and business information that are not known to the public, can bring economic benefits to the right holder, are practical, and have been kept secret by the right holder. Infringement of trade secrets includes: ① Obtaining the right holder’s trade secrets through theft, inducement, coercion or other improper means; ② Disclosing, using or allowing others to use the right holder’s trade secrets obtained by the means mentioned in the previous paragraph; ③ Violating the agreement Or violate the rights holder’s requirements to keep trade secrets, disclose, use or allow others to use the trade secrets in its possession.

5. Predatory pricing: Predatory pricing refers to the behavior of operators selling goods at a price lower than cost for the purpose of squeezing out their opponents. Unfair competition that constitutes predatory pricing requires the purpose of squeezing out competitors and selling goods below cost. However, selling fresh goods, dealing with goods whose validity period is about to expire or other backlogged goods, seasonal price reductions, and goods sold at reduced prices due to debt repayment, change of production, closure of business, etc. are not predatory pricing.

6. Deceptive prize sales and huge prize sales: Operators use deceptive methods to sell goods by falsely claiming prizes or letting insiders win prizes, and use prize sales to promote low-quality and high-priced products. , all constitute unfair competition behaviors of deceptive prize sales. Big prize sales refer to prize-winning sales in which the maximum prize exceeds 5,000 yuan. Big prize sales tend to encourage blind consumption, are a threat to small and medium-sized enterprises, and virtually undermine the order of fair competition, so it is an act of unfair competition.
