Description
I was contacted by a scammer acting as if they were from Trademark Engine. They text me, sent two emails, called multiple times and left a voicemail on my phone, all within an hour or so period. They were pressuring me to make a payment of almost $900.0 within 24 hours. I started asking a lot of questions they could not answer. Even their email spelled the real Trademark name wrong. They also called me using the name Gary William from the phone number 323-990-9413. The man who called was clearly Indian. When I started asking questions that he could not answer, he hung up then called back and left a pressuring message that I need to pay within 24 hours because someone had applied for my name. Please let me know if there is anything else I need to do or anything you need from me.
