Description

Offer of worthless service claiming it is a legal matter of utmost urgency regarding potential trademark infringement. We already have a valid trademark in good standing and it is not up for renewal until 2030. Body of email below... This is a final trademark warning regarding your XXXXXXX. Another party has initiated their trademark application, but our research confirms that they lack a long-standing claim to the name, unlike your business. Under USPTO regulations, trademarks are granted based on a first-come, first-served basis. You have a stronger claim, but we must file your application within 24 hours to protect your rights. What’s at Stake? Secure Your Name Now – We will file your application immediately, ensuring exclusive ownership and legal protection. Failure to Respond – The other party will gain exclusive rights, and you may be forced to rebrand. If the other party secures the trademark, they will have full ownership rights, and you may face legal consequences under the Lanham Act, including lawsuits, financial damages, cease-and-desist orders, and possible injunctions. To avoid these risks, please reply within 24 hours or call (818) 262-2803 to discuss your next steps. This is an urgent legal matter—do not delay. Best regards,
