Hello Envato Team and Fellow Authors,
I recently came across two different author accounts with similar assets being uploaded under different usernames. I’ve attached screenshots for reference, showing that the assets are quite similar, if not identical, across two accounts: samuraizio12 and callyzio12.
I’m curious if it’s permissible for someone to maintain multiple Envato Elements author accounts, as this raises concerns about the authenticity and originality of content, and the potential for unfair advantage in the marketplace. Could anyone share insights or official guidelines regarding this practice?
Looking forward to your feedback and clarification on the matter.
Thank you!
Hello!
An exclusive and non-exclusive are allowed but if the items are the same or very similar there might be an issue. But if this in on Elements then it’s not quiet the same as Market.

Thank you for your response. However, I would like to point out that the situation seems quite unfair, especially when it is clear that the items are not only similar but also identical in content, including the preview images. This could create confusion for customers and impacts the fairness of the marketplace.
It would be helpful to have further clarification on how this situation aligns with Envato’s policy on marketplace integrity and how similar items are handled, particularly in cases like this.
