14,000 US trademarks of a Shenzhen company were forcibly revoked! The seller complained: I registered 30...

Recently, the cross-border e-commerce circle has become a mess. Before the Member Day, many big sellers were banned for fake orders, and various price wars were raging, and sellers complained bitterly. But the chaos is far from over, and various dangers are surging undercurrents.

Recently, another shocking news broke out in the cross-border e-commerce circle: nearly 14,000 U.S. trademarks of a Shenzhen intellectual property company were forcibly revoked by the U.S. Trademark and Patent Office (USPTO).

According to the revelations of many sellers and related information, the company used false information such as lawyer qualifications to submit trademarks, which means that the company has no US agency qualifications and is suspected of illegal agency . Therefore, the USPTO sanctioned the company on the grounds of "unauthorized impersonation of others' signatures to handle trademark matters and providing false or fraudulent information", and forced the company to withdraw nearly 14,000 trademarks it represented for review.

In addition, insiders reported that the agency lured clients to apply for U.S. trademarks at low prices, and encouraged clients to apply for U.S. trademarks in batches to sell to Amazon sellers . After a large number of illegal operations, they were discovered by the U.S. Trademark and Patent Office. Among them, the highest individual investment amount exceeded 20 million .

After investigation, the editor found that the Trademark Commissioner of the United States Trademark and Patent Office issued a related announcement on June 8 .

The announcement showed that the company's illegal behavior would be sanctioned, and a relevant PDF was attached. The PDF content showed that the US Trademark Office required the company to respond to the matter before June 22, otherwise it would be permanently revoked .

So, there may be a chance for this incident to turn around. But as of now, the company has not responded to this matter , and many sellers have received emails from the USPTO: the trademark has been revoked. Sellers who have not received emails can also go to the USPTO official website to check whether they are on the exclusion list.

This incident has a huge impact, and the number of sellers involved is very large, reaching thousands. The editor saw in the seller forum that many sellers said that they have registered trademarks with the company, and some sellers have even registered 30 trademarks , and are very worried about the subsequent claims.

It is reported that the current value of nearly 14,000 US trademarks exceeds 100 million. The editor found that the registered capital of the Shenzhen intellectual property company was only 1 million. Even if it went bankrupt and liquidated, the sellers would suffer in the end.

At present, sellers can only wait for the company's solution with a glimmer of hope. However, while waiting, sellers must also try to minimize losses. If sellers have cooperated with the company, they must check and remove related listings as soon as possible to avoid affecting Prime Day promotions.
