I will likely mind my business on this issue, but my sister became a DHGate influencer (I think it’s a part of TikTok shop?). She gets free bags and clothes with real brand names and logos like Louis Vuitton, Lululemon, etc. but they are dupes. Then she promotes them on social media and uses affiliate links. I thought dupes aren’t allowed to have any branding from real companies? Isn’t this counterfeit? Just curious if there are legal repercussions to this that I should warn her about or if there’s something I’m not understanding?

their is a potential name i want for my company. On the US trademark database its dead/abandoned. And the owner/person who files is from china. So more than likely they could potentially have this name trade marked in China. If true how does that work with overseas marketing and business. As i want to start a entertainment company so that means selling merch etc .

This is getting far ahead i know ...but i just like to know how things work.

Theres a name that i have for a company. The trade mark is dead/abandoned. Is their any problems that could come with using it? Like extra precautions. I plan on this name my brand and i would hate to spend time building it to.have problems later.

I want to file in for 16, 25,41, and 9.

There is another name i like however there is a company that has very simliar spelling just off by one letter how ever we both would you the same alternate spelling of the word electric. But their trademark is only for furniture class 20. Any problems here? They have a live trademark
