Important alert: trade mark impersonation scams
We have been alerted to sophisticated scam websites and communications that are impersonating reputable UK firms and their trade mark partners to falsely offer trade mark services. These websites may use the names of real legal professionals in order to appear legitimate.
You can confirm that any firm or individual claiming to be a solicitor is authorised by checking the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) register (www.sra.org.uk/consumers/register). UK trade mark attorneys can be verified by checking the CITMA website (www.citma.org.uk/about-us/find-a-member.html).
As a general rule, we encourage you to stay alert, follow cybersecurity best practices, and always verify the identity of anyone requesting sensitive information or payment to ensure your assets remain secure.
If you receive a suspicious email or have concerns about the credibility of a website, do not use the contact details provided. Instead, contact your known D Young & Co representative directly using their official contact information listed on our website.
Please remain vigilant and contact us if you have any concerns or questions.
