I was appalled when I received an email from Barry Allen, from LogoJeeves or Great Lake Designers, or whatever scam company they are going by.
How dare you attempt to extort me out of the brand name I CREATED and MY DAUGHTER DESIGNED?!
This company is a disgrace, and I want to show you the email that was sent to me... see below. I absolutely could not believe the email I was reading and replied back with a scathing message and declaration to sue those companies. STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!
"Hello Crystal,
I hope this email finds you in good health since all of us are going through a rough patch.
I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the copyrights/ownership of the logo for your project GRITMERCY has expired (June'2019-april'20) and in order for you to keep using that logo online on your website or on the stationary without any hassle, it needs to be renewed.
I have been trying to reach over the phone for the past couple of weeks since USPTO has notified us about your expiration but didn't get a chance to speak to you.
We have different plans for the copyrights depending on the client's requirements starting from 1 year to lifetime.
1 year ownership: $199
3 years ownership: $349
5 years ownership: $599
Lifetime ownership: $799
Choose the plan as per your feasibility so I can advise you payment options and we can send it for attestation to the governing body. I would also like to clarify that Green Lake Designers is a subsidiary of LogoJeeves. So just to clear the confusion, you are not dealing or being contacted by an unknown entity.
Let me know how you wish to proceed.
Thanks and Regards,
Barry Allen
