France’s anti‑fraud unit reported that the e‑commerce platform Shein sold sex dolls with a childlike appearance, with the DGCCRF noting that the item description and categorization made it difficult to doubt their child‑pornographic nature. Shein subsequently removed the dolls from its catalogue and launched an internal investigation.

    1. I want to be very clear: If these behaviors are repeated, we will be entitled to… ban access to the French market for the Shein platform.

    1. Their description and their categorization on the site make it difficult to doubt the pedopornographic nature of the content.

    1. Imagine a child randomly clicking on and coming across these products while browsing the site looking for a doll.

    1. Such content is completely unacceptable and goes against everything we stand for. We are taking immediate corrective actions and reinforcing our internal controls to prevent this from happening again.
    2. The products in question were immediately removed from the platform as soon as we became aware of these major shortcomings.
