Description
this is the email he sent: Dear Mary M., This is an urgent and serious matter that demands your immediate action. As I previously stated, a trademark application for "**************" was submitted to our firm more than 24 hours ago. This represents a significant threat to your brand, and ignoring it is not an option. Failing to act swiftly could lead to severe legal consequences, including costly lawsuits that could range from $120,000 to $750,000. The risk of injunctions and cease-and-desist orders is very real, and your brand could be severely compromised. Given your established use of the name, we need to move fast to protect your interests and potentially block the other party, especially if they are a new player in the market. We are ready to file your trademark application immediately and ensure your brand remains secure. Do not delay. Contact me immediately at (213) 913-0540 (EXT 20) or reply to this email right now. Your failure to act could have serious, costly repercussions. This situation is critical. Respond without hesitation. Regards, [image of biz card w/contact info]
