Here’s my latest scam!
I wrote a book 5 years ago and filed it with the U.S. Trademark office.
I get a phone call today identifying himself as an employee of the U.S. Trademark office.
He said someone else is trying register my book’s name.
He said that for $795 he can block the other person’s registration.
Two hours later, he called again saying he could register my book for a reduced price of $500.
I know the U.S. Trademark Office doesn’t chase authors around trying to get them to register.
Further, I know it doesn’t offer discounts.
Be careful when something sounds too good!
