It was recently discovered that the works of Tabineko were stolen and used to create AI-generated fake illustrations, which are being sold on online sites Temu, AliExpress and various sellers on Etsy. Despite the Artist (Mr. Mori) filing infringement complaints, these items continue to be listed. This is not only a violation of intellectual property but also a horrible business practice that exploits original creators for quick profit.

PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS and refrain from purchasing postcards from these sites, as they are counterfeit and only encourages perpetrators. If you'd like to verify the authenticity of a postcards or spot a fake listing, please don't hesitate to contact Paper Treats.
