Wish store was closed due to copyright infringement! More than 100 sellers had their funds frozen

The infringement case targets sellers on the Wish platform . It is reported that more than 100 sellers have had their loans frozen and some sellers' stores have been closed . The two products involved in the infringement are FinGears magnetic rings and Happy Nappers children's sleeping bags , both of which are new brands and represented by EPS Law Firm .

FinGears Magnetic Ring

According to public information, 44 Wish accounts have been sued . However, the case information in the Wish backend is still vague, and key information has been hidden by the law firm, which has prevented the defendant sellers from taking early action to reduce the defendant's losses. The case was frozen on the first day of February .

FinGears magnetic decompression ring is a product that provides multiple strong magnetic rings that can be attached to each other and rotated. People can freely combine and match them on their fingers and rotate them in circles to make various changes. The product is mainly small and changeable, and the main purpose is to let people decompress by playing with the product . Due to the epidemic, people in North America are generally under increased stress, and this product is very popular.

In addition to registering related trademarks, such as text and patterns , the brand has also applied for a patent for the magnetic ring , which means that the scope of protection for the product will be wider. Not only that, the brand has applied for copyright protection for FinGears' product packaging and other pictures , and the protection of the product is watertight. Therefore, it is easy for sellers to infringe copyright if they are not careful!

Happy Nappers Kids Sleeping Bag

Happy Nappers, a children's sleeping bag company represented by EPS, has also sued Wish sellers on a large scale, with 59 accounts currently sued . The defendant sellers' Wish backend TRO page shows that in addition to the frozen payment, their stores have also been suspended . Even though the scope of Happy Nappers' children's sleeping bags patent is not as broad as FinGears', it has also registered word trademarks and pattern copyrights .

Happy Nappers children's sleeping bags are a hot-selling product in cross-border e-commerce, and its sales have always been at the forefront. Due to its rich and diverse cartoon styles, including unicorns, huskies, sharks, kittens , etc., it is deeply loved by consumers and also expands the scope of copyright, making it easy for sellers of related products to step on thunder and cause infringement.

The plaintiff company of the sleeping bag, Allstar Marketing Group, is already a familiar face among the infringement plaintiffs. It is also an old customer of EPS. EPS has represented many of its products, such as Baseboard Buddy lazy mop, Socket Shelf socket storage rack, True Touch pet gloves, Snuggie lazy blanket , etc. Therefore, sellers of the company's related products need to check and avoid them immediately!

As mentioned above, the sleeping bags have various cartoon styles, and cartoon characters have always been the hardest hit by infringement. The plaintiff company has registered the image copyright of each product style, so when sellers sell related products, they should pay attention to whether the words Happy Nappers appear in the text part and whether the style in the picture is the same or similar to the brand.

According to previous rights protection experience, once EPS Law Firm represents a brand , it will collect evidence on major platforms to protect rights , and then each platform will correspond to a case number, and all the sellers on the same platform will be sued. Currently, the first case to be made public is the case related to the Wish platform, but platforms such as Amazon and eBay will also have related actions. Sellers need to urgently check and avoid being caught in infringement storms.
