    Trademark infringement wtf

    I got this email , claiming trademark infringement because I own camguys.org I checked his trademark registration, which is listed here :

    http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield...10:8139hu.13.1

    It clearly states :

    Disclaimer NO CLAIM IS MADE TO THE EXCLUSIVE RIGHT TO USE "GUYS" APART FROM THE MARK AS SHOWN
    Here is the email :

    My name is Chris Wescott, I am the Vice President of Z Productions, Inc. which owns www.CamGuys.org We also own the trademark for The Cam Guys (Registration Number 3,736,771)
    The website www.CamGuys.org is a direct and intentional infringement upon out trademark and it is putting our trademark name on the internet in a way that we do not approve of or desire. You are also financially benefiting from using our name (a confusingly similar version of it).
    I ask that you immediately shut down the website: www.CamGuys.org
    We are forwarding this letter to our attorneys (via blind copy) who have been asked to act swiftly if the site is not immediately taken down.
    I hope you understand and respect the gravity of this situation and will work to rectify it at once.
    Does this guy have any chance ? Besides I am based in Europe, I assume his trademark is just for USA. If I move the shit back to Europe I am okay ? Does anyone have any experience with this ?

    Maybe I just put a picture on it of some real nasty gay work, then i am not financially benefiting from it, lol...

      You might want to talk to a lawyer, but looks like they might have a case on you, unless you bought and established the dot org before they did with the dot com.

          The email makes no sense. He says he owns camguys.org which is your site? How can he own your site?

                  I read the post three times thinking I was reading it wrong. I noticed the same thing.

                      Before you do anything, email him back and get some clarification as to what he's talking about as you own the domain camguys.org.

                          email him back and ask him why he says he owns a domain he does not? He probably just made a typo. Also, his TM is for "The Cam Guys" and non CamGuys or "Cam Guys" but if he owns and has owned camguys.com (assuming he made a typo in his email) since 1997 when it was registered that may be a different story. Check archive.org and see what the site was when you began your site.

                              It appears he owns camguys.com , if you go to the site and look at the very bottom you'll see this. "The Cam Guys" is a trademark of CamGuys.com

                                          Yeah I guess he made a typo.... His site was like this in June 2008 :
                                          http://web.archive.org/web/200806081...w.camguys.com/

                                          We own the domain since sept 4 2008 and it never changed content...

                                                      I emailed him back for you and told him to go fuck himself and you will see him in court...

                                                      Hopefully he will back down....

                                                          If it were to go to WIPO you may lose on grounds that your domain is confusingly similar to his trademark.

                                                          His TM is for "The Cam Guys" and one has to wonder if an application for "Cam Guys" was denied. Probably not, but it might be worth checking into.

                                                          CamGuys.com May 23, 1997 (he appears to not be the original registrant... think he used his TM to take this domain?)
                                                          TheCamGuys.com Nov 06, 2005

                                                          Filing date: June 11, 2009
                                                          Stated first use in commerce: Nov 06, 2005 (Dec 15, 2005 Archive.org shows an undeveloped page.)

                                                          CamGuys.org Sept 04, 2008

                                                          Your domain pre-dates his TM. As long as you were using the domain prior to June 11, 2009, I think you are in the clear.

It sucks having trademark problems, but sometimes they are worth disputing. Not sure if a .org is worth the trouble.

                                                                                                                                                                                          don't offer to sell the domain to him
                                                                                                                                                                                          That was just a joke. If he buys it he can collect it in person

                                                                                                                                                                                          If he was serious the letter would be from his attorney.
                                                                                                                                                                                          That's true, looking at his sites thecamguys.com and others he does not seem to do very well financially. Second.. Why doesnt he have his site at camguys.com (which he owns) He redirects camguys.com to thecamguys.com.

                                                                                                                                                                                          This is interesting. Keep us posted how this goes. For not, it looks like your site is down.

So to get him of their backs I moved the site to my dutch servers. But something seems to be wrong with the dns change. Waiting for that to be solved . It was not taken down on purpose.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Why did he bcc his lawyer in the orig email? Just in case he didn't but wanted you to think he did?
                                                                                                                                                                                          Why didn't he just have his lawyer send out the letter and save all the guess-work?
                                                                                                                                                                                          Not a clue.. I guess this is his fetish

                                                                                                                                                                                          If he put as much effort on his sites as he does on this he would be more successfull and leave me the fuck alone

                                                                                                                                                                                                  That depends on the issue.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  In this case, it appears he may actually have a trademark on .com that can be verified. Otherwise, I would agree with you. A lot of times on the web people will claim they have trademark or copyright when they do not. So you are best to let the lawyers handle it and call the bluff.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  But there are some circumstances where it's not worth the fight, and better to just roll over. I can't say something like ownership of a domain/site is one of those cases though. I would refer to a lawyer.
