This is a scam !!! Beware !!!!
This is a scam ! They reached out to me on Labor Day by text stating they designed a logo for me in 2010. My business name has changed since 2010 and they didn’t do my logo design. When i went On to website the guy asked for my name and email which I didn’t give him and suddenly he knew my personal email address and “legal “ was emailing me. In the mean time I received 3 spam calls from a girl who could barely speak . My response to them bounced back. This is the email ! Our IP Attorney has done extensive research before reaching out to you and found out that the name is not registered with the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office). Trademark is done federally, through the United States Patent and Trademark Office. This means, whoever gets the trademark done, will have the ownership of the business name in all the 50 states. If the owner of the trademark finds someone else using the business name anywhere in all the 50 states, they'll be able to send them a cease and desist letter. Since we are a provider of design services, we are associated with different intellectual property rights organizations like World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to keep us and our clients safe from intellectual rights conflicts. We share our records with USPTO and whenever there is an application filed with USPTO which is similar to our database our internal system generates a notification regarding trademark filing. If you're interested kindly let me know we will halt the trademark process for the conflicting party and file yours instead. The opposition will be refunded in full by our finance department once the Serial No for your filed trademark application is duly issued so in the meanwhile they are not able to secure the First File. If you're not willing to register the trademark so the other applicant will be honored as USPTO serves applicants on a first come first serve basis. As per the Act of 1946 §§ 1051 et seq, it is mandatory to register your mark to hold the ownership rights federally. Since they've filed with us only we will be able to proceed with the application or reject it. However, if you file with your trademark counsel you won't be able to get the ownership of the mark as the USPTO serves the applicants on a first come first serve basis. Only we would be able to file on your behalf. If you're not interested we will go ahead and file for the other applicant. It was just a courtesy call to inform you about the application being filed. You were given priority as an older client and the courtesy to choose if you'd like to go ahead and own this name as it is still in your use. If you'd be filing through us only then we'll be able to help you out if not as per the policy filing will be processed in favor of the opposition and you'll be required to discontinue all use of this name as per the Trademark law. Kindly acknowledge if the other applicant successfully gets this trademark registered under their ownership and if any conflict arises between you and other parties on Intellectual Property Rights, then Logo Design Pros shall not be responsible. If you're willing to trademark the name, kindly let me know as the application will be filed for the other applicant by the end today.
